Will Team Shelby be assisting SAAC with next year's festivities as in the past?  There were some cool activities that were planned during the few SAAC events I've attended since joining a member.

I bought tickets for that car. Worth a chance to me just like the occasional lottery ticket. Taxes that are paid do hurt on prizes. I would accept the tax pain to own a car like this. I'm sure that members will find more things that might be incorrect.

Thank you for the information. Condolences to the family.

I wasn't sure where to place this. I'm sure that it may have been covered before but it's a recent video. - Kevin

The Maverick next to it takes the patina look to a whole new level.

I found this slightly rusty GT350H clone for sale on another website that linked me to eBay. Does anyone believe that the parts on this car could be original and the parts could justify the $15K asking price? Would love to know the VIN on the block of this car. I'm not in the market but maybe someone here is.

SIIRHD88 is correct there are some great 12v vacuum pumps on the market. They are relatively small in size and work great. I have a friend with a big block Chevy with a large blower attached always had poor brakes due to lack of vacuum. He has a 440 Mopar with a purple cam that has also suffered from poor brakes and low vacuum. It also now has good brakes. His was mounted under the battery on his Mopar probably can't really do that on a Mustang. They look better than the ones that ran off the power steering.

I think that it's great that there is a Shelbyman70 or Coralsnake to answer questions about these cars and add input where it may be necessary. These cars can sell for a large amount of money. I spent my time crawling under cars at the Barrett Jackson Auction when they passed through CT and saw a lot of poor workmanship. Maybe the future owner does not care but I know that I do. My friend has a saying on his spray booth "Good work isn't cheap. Cheap work isn't good". 

What is the purpose of what appears to be a can in the wheel well in photo 130? I would assume that it is for emission control or weight for vibration. Not enough cam for a vacuum canister.

Thank you for the information. I watched the video on CSX2410 which showed its chassis stamping that was saved. I did see the body stampings in the photos. Just curious due to the fact that cars can be copied. 

Was there more than one chassis stamping on these cars? Not all cars have a history that can be traced like this one. You have to do your due diligence before you spend this kind of money unless you just want bragging rights or too much money.

Can I sign up now?   

Thank you for the link. New Mustang knowledge. Funny how certain dealerships obtained the cars.

So there is the potential for this to be a Holy Grail Shelby.

But it has a title with a few missing VIN numbers.  The Cougar in the background looks looks like the best thing on the lot.
