Concours Talk / SAAC-51 Concours Registration ...
Last post by CharlesTurner - August 04, 2026, 01:13:05 AMThere's still time to enter SAAC-51 concours! So far we have every year represented except for '66.
While it will likely be hot in Atlanta, SAAC has rented a 100x20 tent with 40' of that for concours. We will be able to judge cars under the tent and SAAC is selling the other 6 spots.
Great opportunity to have your car judged by some of the most knowledgeable Shelby experts in the world!

Last post by Stillakid54 - August 04, 2026, 12:50:19 AMUp here in Canada, the cars were just that much more expensive. An old friends father was the sales manager for a local Ford/Shelby dealership. He told me his dad hated the high performance cars. They were expensive, and very slow to move through inventory.
I have told this story before here, when I bought my new 71 Mustang at his dealership, they had three 70 Boss 9's leftovers. Two grabber green/black, one pastel blue/black. In 71, $6,500! Twice the price of my 71. Could not move them. If only.

Last post by Pcunder - August 03, 2026, 09:57:57 PMWow thanks... that is great info.
Was the 1x4v lid 'factory Shelby/Buddy Bar" or fabricated? I was gonna see if my single Cross-Boss lid would work.
So a LeMans cam probably would not be enough to fill the plenum till 3500 rpm?
Sounds like I need some better heads too.

Last post by kram350 - August 03, 2026, 09:41:02 PMHave vintage road raced one for years. Single 780 double pumper with both accelerator pumps 50cc, big cam, 2000 to 8500rpm no issues, below 2000 need to baby it. Needs a lot of pump shot. I love the thing, it just sings! On the street might disappoint. A duel plane would be a better choise, even a single plane.
