Do not have my registry's available but was looking at a '68 Shelby that claims to "be real". The Shelby vin plate looks to good.
The plate is 8T02J180134-00938. Was looking for a friend. If it was a '67 or '66 I'd know, but I have no back ground on '68s
Thanks
I would say you have some numbers wrong or someone has a problem, because 938 does not match that Ford VIN.
Heres the Shelby plate on 938:

Feel free to pm me
Thanks, i copied the numbers, just a bad try for an air car! Thanks again!
Please report your information to MrLiska
8T03J180134 was originally an Acapulco Blue, parchment interior, convertible Mustang, not a Shelby.
Do you have any photos of the offending vehicle?
The air car is Red/ Black interior. I did not get a picture of the car. The fake Shelby vin tag was the first give away. Too new and crisp, then Recaro seats, wood steering wheel etc. The car was in Vegas.
A convertible?
I'm going to tell ya, without folks like Pete here on the SAAC, there is NO WAY I'd ever consider buying a Shelby without consulting here first.
World class knowledge here, 2nd to NONE!!
Thanks Pete for looking out for us, and Thanks to all the others, you know who you are ;) 8)

Yes thanks Pete for everything you do. Huge fan of your website (and of all things 1968. Shelby, Mustang and Cougar included). 8)
Awe, you guys are so nice.
Thanks
I will have to admit, I get help

But most importantly, you share that knowledge.
I got to admit, I am so "ignorant" per se, when it comes to Shelby knowledge, but here I have learned so much and it is VERY much appreciated from me!! ;D
BTW, I am always finding myself on the Coralsnake site, especially when you share another "Gift" to us here.
Yes Mr.Disher. Your efforts are exemplary. ;)
Car was not a convertible, was/is a fast back.
Well they did a double dirty,
Took the Mustang number, changed that and gave it to the clone. Maybe that's the trifecta of dirty deeds?
And let's add that it's a federal crime to alter a car's VIN.

Help from you evil twin? ;D All kidding aside, yes, thanks for all your help over the years and especially when I was doing my first 68 Shelby when the SAAC forum didn't exist yet and we were on the other "68 Shelby" forum. The parts I got from you were top notch also. I send people to your website whenever I can and push them towards original style reproduction wiring for 68s and 69s. Gary
Yes, thank you Pete. I was lucky enough to meet you at SAAC 42. Thanks for being so nice and informative in person also.
Oh stop it, youre making me blush

Maybe a "Unique Performance" Ex-Employee is taking up where they left off............... :o
Documentation is key
It will be back again
