QUOTE(shelby/914 @ Sep 4 2012, 06:31 PM)  Looks fantastic. When will it be at the local shop so we can all sneak a peek? Throw in a few pix of the 6 project so there is some 914 content. By the way the Mustang is all gone to various good homes. Danny did you sell the shelby? brant |

Ha!!
No no no...... My brother in-law's dad died when he was 9 (late 60's/very early 70's). He had an early mustang that both my brother in law and his brother thought had been sold shortly thereafter. This was found not to be the case. His Mom had a very hard time dealing with the loss, and basically became a hoarder. She had a stroke last year that made it impossible for her to ever live alone again (nearly vegetative). This meant cleaning out the house (massive project - MANY dumpsters). About half way in to cleaning out the garage - you guessed it - they found the car. Still had the pack of cigarettes on the dash from the night he had his heart attack. From this pics we had sent, it looked to be a real time machine and in really great shape. We shipped it to Colorado and were going to have it restored to give to my brother in law as a surprise. Unfortunately the surprise was on us - it was a huge mess. It had been hit and poorly repaired several times. Tons of rust. Danny is a big time Mustang/Shelby guy so we gave it to him for parts. Dust (rust) to dust............ We did find his pocket watch in the (spider infested) glove box however. It was neat to give that back to my brother in law. Still worked like a champ. |

Absolutely beautiful. The devil is in the details, but that is what separates the stunning from the also-ran. That car is epic, and the fact that it was built from the ground up to that level of detail is amazing. I envy your skills.
