Also,maybe it's the photo,but,those are the best hubcaps I have ever seen,straight up bitchin!!!

Would you believe those are extremely early takeoff wheel covers.  Those came out of San Francisco after I had purchased a set of NOS.  When it came down to selecting-- the originals won!

I sure didn't see that one coming.

So many folks have their fingerprints on this car.  My quest for parts and knowledge has resulted in countless relationships.  My sincere thanks to all.

I will watch my spelling; appreciate your explanation.

After owning #02139 for 29 years, the restoration was finished in time for our Mid-America debut in Tulsa, last weekend.  Many friends from the past several decades actually saw the car for the first time, and the reception was overwhelming.  We are showing in "thoroughbred" equivalent class.  This first time out we scored GOLD, with very positive feedback! 

Our thanks to the Mid-America staff and judges;  Having previously spent 25 years in Tulsa, we are proud to be able debut there. 

Billups Classic Cars does outstanding work; we are proud to be showing during this the 50th anniversary for the 1968 Shelby.

The screws are not typical in my opinion

Totally agree Pete & Jeff.  Just plucked a picture of the strap of my files; sorry to pick one with the incorrect fastener.

First photo try since crash; hopefully it works.  This picture is of #2444 unrestored 500.

If you want the best, then contact Bob Nowicki 517-394-4900.  I rejected two other sources after they did work for me; expensive lessons.
