It finally arrived safely from Miami & in great shape today, talk about excited!! The car is an 08 with just 7 miles on it.

Still be a while before it hits the road as it need mods to the lighting & then has to pass a conformity test.

The guy driving the delivery truck, said people were taking pictures of it sitting on the back whilst in traffic!!

A few pics for you.

How Exciting! Contratulations!

I noticed no Shelby lettering on the back. Did you already remove it?

No, it is there, just a trick of the light!

Small world isn'it?

I have plans to do a Team Shelby Europe meeting next year. Will see how that works out. Weekend with Poker run and trackday.

Well the registration hasn't actually arrived but....

The lighting has been modified to meet UK legislation, but done in a totally discreet way. Side repeaters are 3 LEDs in the mirror housing, rear fogs are hidden in the cluster & the rear blinkers are now an LED block installed in the reverse lamp location. They flash amber as indicators & work as white reverse lamps as well.

Very pleased with car so far, it's gonna be a quick one!
