This will most likely be my last build of this sort in my lifetime, I think I'll move on to a different platform soon. I've been wanting an exotic for a while so when the day comes I feel the Shelby must go I'm switching gears.

Huracan
McClaren
Porsche

Not sure which way yet but @ 41 yrs old I've promised myself a big 50th car so only time will tell.

I'd say if you can do it, go for it. We only get one life to live, might as well do all that you can during it! :coolman:

That's exactly why I'm building this car so crazy. I'm finally at a time in my life I can go all out. Well keep us posted on your build and please post more pictures of your Shelby.

It makes 315's look like spare tires. Great job!

We all want our cake and be able to eat it! These cars belong on 345's on the street. It's viper power or better so why not,
The price to do it right is baffling.

I'm with you on the street build, I've also debated going rear WB and 1000 hood, you're not helping that urge ;-)

Absolutely beautiful car!

Thanks

Yeah man, I wanted it to be aggressive looking but mostly in person people say that they love how smooth and subtle the kit looks. Thanks for the compliments!

You should have seen it with the wide body complete by still rolling on the stock wheels....I had Nitto 305/35/20 DR's on the rear stock wheels and they looked like skinnys that would go on the front of a drag car. LOL!

That was just it, you hit the nail on the head. I could have mini tubbed or even full but this way was the best choice for my taste.

Andy I don't think amazing is enough to describe how bad ass that looks, I wouldn't be able to cut up a Shelby but that looks killer

I bought the car used for 52K fully loaded with 19K on the odometer. I plan on driving it and I justified the cost of cutting it up as if I'd bought it new with ADM. I'm still less out of pocket and I'm nearing my dream Shelby goal!:burnout:

You know what Bimini..... I'm 41 and I lost my mother in 2010 @ the age of 63. She lived life to the fullest and she taught me a valuable lesson in her passing. Life is short, do what you want while you can because tomorrow may never come.....If you have the means and aren't stretching your self thin financially I would not wait another day man.

I went out to a street race meet tonight and every one thought I put GT350 front fenders on the front of my car. So I guess that's a compliment...

I learned the same lesson after both parents as well as a few friends passed away. Do what you really want to do, while you can.:thumbsup:
