Is there a Shelby forum that is covering this car? I'd like to see the updates.

I’ve ran across so many “ex-drag cars” that were never fully completed without ever seeing any track time at all. I wonder if there’s any rubber thrown up in the rear fenderwells because that’s usually the tell-tale.

... Yeah but sometimes we'd do a good job of cleaning the rubber if we felt like it.

It looks like it was painted another color at some point and they removed as much of the non original paint as they could for the original paint underneath. Just my opinion.

Interesting read: https://www.saacforum.com/index.php?topic=19118.0
I feel like the car was fluffed up to support the narrative on the car. I bet there are still folks out there that know the history of this car when it was turned into a drag car. |
