    67' Shelby Gt500 Restored For Sale

    Hmmmm...... Is this a joke, or an internet scam add? I doubt the car is a real Shelby, but even so, it looks like a great deal on a '67 clone to me. Front coil overs, and it appears to have a T-5 as well. If it runs, and drives as good as it looks, I wouldn't waste a second on snapping that up...

    Somthing Is Gnorw With This Pic. Cant Figure It Out

    That's an extremely rare, early style Cowl Induction! Possibly a Shelby Prototype? Similar to the style Shaker that was used on later model Pontiac Transam's, with the exception that Ford used the Hood as the shaker lid, to save on manufacturing costs's...... :bs:

    Ya... Sliders are cool! I'm familiar with the Afco, but hadn't seen the Speedway design until now. Looks to be a little stouter! I just need to decide how far I want to take this.... There's so many neat designs of suspension up-grades available from people like Hiedts, T.C.I., Maier, Griggs...

    Lower Control Arm/bushings Concern?

    Yes.... But How are floaters in a corner? I used to run them in the old days, but that was with ladder bars, and only straight-line stuff.

    I want to apologize if I have offended anyone other then those so foolish, that they would attempt to portray the Shop in question as the Victim, and Attempt to blame it on a Customer who has had his Dreams Stolen by a Sub-Standard shop having his car for 3-1/2 years! Shame On You! I don't know...

    Good Point!..... So, now that has me thinking the CalTrac style would amplify the issue while braking, if adjusted with pre-load?.... And I've heard that the Fixed bar, "Traction Master" design can cause bind, because it's mimicking a four bar set-up using your springs as two of the four...

    Hmmm...... I'm GUESSING there's a couple of representatives from MMM in this thread....... Never the less, I can't believe any reputable shop would have allowed this to leave, in this condition! Oh that's right...... They had Three and a Half Years to get it Straight! Thanks 68keyblr! This is...

    So...... What about the hood, and the roof? Seems to me if he doesn't break the clear at an edge, then he'll end up with a Blend? Also Glenn mentions that this was a Custom mix color, so a Perfect match could be a problem..... and Here's a sample of their "Top-Notch" work that was sent...

    Hmmm...... In business, it's common place to lose on some jobs. But your name is still attached to it, so you do the Best you can, and hope it pays off in future jobs! Some Businesses would consider this a Loss leader. So if what you say is true.... It sounds like MMM sold themselves short, and...
