Here's a white one with Grey stripes. Those are the only legit Shelby's aside from the Gt500 series.

Sarge and I swap txts a few times a week. He can be found on SVTp.

I do 'some' mod work. It depends on what it is because of lack of tools. I do all the maintenance.

Actually.......yes. Sarge doesn't come around much any more because of hte n00b *****.


Plenty of things to do N/A as builds. Since you guys like tinkering so much and 'virtually' always have ot be working on it, doing projects and reselling them could be the 'all around' ticket.

My ride?...what ride?

In short, my Ex-wife doesn't pay for **** for the kids (welfare loser) so I take care of all their school, medical, b-day parties, etcetera all myself. As a result, no way to save up. So....I'm looking at not getting back 'into the game' for quite some time. SUCKS *** royally too, because I just saw a 93 fox for 1200 obo. It's a salvage title and need motor work from a blown head gasket (I'd wanna stroker anyhow). Other than that it looks clean as ****. I can't even get that to sit in my garage for the time being.

I remember it saying Cobra on the back but also having the GT-H badges in the uper right side... I wonder if it was a reg GT with mods and Shelby body kit and badges?? SO am I write in saying that they dont make a Shelby Cobra GT-H?? It would have just been the Shelby GT-H then? I hope I see that guy again! We played around all the way from Frisco to allen...

Then why not a Centrif charger? J/K

Buy it man! Work out a few payments if anything. You have a PM.
It is a hell of a deal man. I couldn't believe it when I came across it. The best part (or worse LOL) is it's only 2 hours away and I have AAA that covers 200 miles. I wouldnt' ahve to pay a dime for towing. LOL

replied good sir.

Yeah....I actually didn't like foxbodies until recently. They've grown on me...........It's even my favorite Color (Blue) and a 5 speed.

They never made a 'shelby cobra'. The only 'name sake' for shelby and cobra was third party marketing. Ford and SHelby have never called it that officially as far as I'm aware.

Check these pics out. Oh, and the GT-H's ONLY came in white/gold and black/gold. They were commemorative of the original GT350H's from 66.

Have you two ever considered hanging onto what you have and buying a project car? Maybe just buy, fix up and sell projects. You could make a little cash, learn about alot of different cars (new and old), and constantly be tinkering. Just a thought.
That's what I do. I make good money on the side. I usually find them cheap and mod the hell out of them. I like to say that I build them to keep for myself but when I am done or in the process of finishing them up someone comes along and offers more than I have in it and I let it go. By that time I am bored with it and I look for another one to start all over again. Everybody always asks me, "why the hell did you sell that car?" I don't have a good answer.
