Today marks the 54th anniversary for my G.T.500 which was completed by Shelby American on 7/17/1967. I bought it when it was 10 years old on September 2, 1977. That makes almost 44 years of ownership. It has been a ride. And mostly a good one. Wouldn't trade it for anything.
They do become like old friends even developing their own unspoken personalities.
Felicitations and congratulations !
I keep saying my cars will be valuable some day at my estate sale. They age like fine wine - better every year.
