My dad just gave us one of his cars... Just gotta get it from GA to ME

Just the way it is //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif I found a local guy who has been doing this for 28 yrs and got a referral from my boss actually, and it's $750 nearly door to door. I can get it up here fully insured with not one mile put on it for less than it would cost me and my wife and child to fly or drive down to my parents, lodging since its a 2 day trip driving, food, gas, tolls, unexpected events i.e. tire blowout (on an 18 or 19 inch wide tire that wouldnt be cheap to fix) or accident... it just is not worth it. I can sit here at work and cover the cost of the shipment in the time it takes the thing to be trailered up here. Speaking of cover - I need to see if he has one to put on it for the trip //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif
Well when you put it like that.... it makes sense hahahahaha. As long as you're not afraid to drive her around town. 1200 miles is definitely a two day trip, or a really long one day trip. It wouldn't be feasible at all to bring the family.

So, you're gonna cut out the back seat and do a sealed off trunk set-up in this one right? Gotta woop on Dave's Saleen :p

I also like that your dad owned this.... and not you 10 years ago. He didn't do anything stupid or tacky with it. Left the exterior be. Simple and clean. Upgraded the engine compartment. KISS.

 
nah I will be keeping it unmolested... I told my wife I'm done with stereos and she told me to hold that thought and down the line we may be able to do what I originally intended on //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif but until then, anyone have any interest in a ss6500d or a few (3) soundstream spl-hx 12d2's? just kicking it around //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

 
Got hooked up for Easter with the title and tee shirt signed by Jack Roush. When the 'rents get back from FL in about two wks I will initiate the trucking process :)

real shelby or kit car?? not like the untrained eye can tell anyway but curious.
If it was real. It would be being driven and it would be in a museum or sitting in doors in a car collection. My dad saw 1 real 1 in a museum and 1 real one at Road America. Very rare to see them out in public. It's basically never.

 
I asked him in passing one day and he said it was real, if you are in ATL and hit up any car shows and see it around, go ask and see... perhaps he will tell you lol.

T-minus 3 weeks and counting until my baby arrives //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

this is true but a neighabor of mine has a real one ( i did a full inspection looking for the known signs of it being a kit). then again he drives it like a bat outta hell. (rich a$$ middle-eastern guy)

crx- i'll be sure to keep my eyes open. beautiful car so im sure he would go to the Summit Racing shows.

side note- tomorrow is friday! fuck yea!

My girls pap has a real one. I was in it last week. 824hp

 
he has about 530 in his 427cu in engine, the Roush/GT only has about 280 :laughs:

I've yet to get a ride in it, since we do not get down to Gainesville often, but it'll happen hehe

There are several down here actually. But this is a mecca for mustang owners for some reason.... We have several(10+) shows a year just for them. On a cruise night you will see around 15-20 shelby's out here and even more roush's. You might even catch my buddies uncle in his original cobra jet or he may be in the parking lot showing of his 2008 cobra jet lol....

To be fair we even have a local shop that does the rebuilds of "Eleanor". Classic Recreations

 
Those are the types of people who understand the value of their cars, and take them out on cruise nights and specialty events only (hopefully)... I'll only bring the Roush out when it's sunny, warm, and no chance of bad weather. Heck, half the year I have to put it on blocks in the corner of my garage due to the f***ing winter //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/mad.gif.c18f003ab0ef8a0d9c27ca78d77a6392.gif

Yea, we have our share of "kit cars" here as well, but most are authentic simply because of the shows here.
