1st show this next weekend for #1341 at the Greenwich CT Concours show.  Sat is the Concours de Sport, cars of Limerock, Porsche, Vettes, other Muscle cars.  We are in the  Carroll Shelby Centenium catergory.  Been working details all weekend.  Had  hardware on inners to change out and some other places.  Needed rivets in grill. Blacked out scoops, changed fuel filter, added dolly marks, decals, etc. Adjust brakes, adjust steering, a little more to go today and tomorrow.

..and more...
Is a restoration ever complete?  Actually it adds to the enjoyment of the hobby, research, find parts, develop resto methods., etc...

That is spare masked off with pinstriping to correct color from black to cast blast gray finish.  Intend to do this on the four other rims, not sure if I will get to this for this show.

LOOKS GOOD - NICE WORK.

One comment (other than the Koni shocks) the negative battery cable (if you have enough - some of the Marti Repro's are too short) should route between the battery and the inner fender and then in front of the battery behind the radiator core support to the terminal.

Nice Work!  Will look great at the Lime Rock Show!!

Like your Battery Sticker/label.

Yes the Konis....  We choose to use these as they were installed on this shelby in the late 70s (winged decal konis) when Brett Dommer owned the car and Curt Vogt was his house mate.  Good chance Curt was wrenching on this shelby back then. 

thanks for info on the cable routing.  I will check this today to see if we have the length needed.

+1 .It looks great . Lose what appears to be a red dote on the Z bar . The equalizer bars were typically marked with a paint slash. Color marking for BB and SB are can be found in the notes of the chassis assembly manual.

Congrads on getting it done. Now enjoy it

Just a little detail that stood out -  the battery inspection decal is incorrect for the car and filled out for San Jose in 67. Easy fix :)

Bob here is one of my prior posts on the Z bar that was in this shelby.  the red daub was on there, so I recreated it after plating.
