wow, I just got thru reading the Coyote swap tread, wow that is a awesome build!
F8.. that is very impressive

just got off the phone with the dealer, the VIN inspector just got thru with "Her" job and they called me because after she was done it was like she was getting ready to cry!

told them she's done over 200 inspections and that this car has to be at the top of the list for being as close as possible to "Perfect"!

said he husband had a 91 similiar to it and brought back big memories!

I've always put my special touches to my cars I've collected.. which brings me back to the Coyote tread!
which oh that would be a way to go..
but this one is going to stay AS IS! right down to the factory Good year tires as long as they will hold up!

down to a few days now before that special trailer pulls up in front of the house!

this to me is better than any Christmas I've had, watching them pull my new addition out

the 2007 Shelby GT500

The 91 SC, this was my rig I drove up to Saint Louis to pick it up myself and bring it back

the 2011 Shelby

and soon a similar picture on the 93 Cobra

well John,
Hope your trip back down to say goodbye was good on Saturday?

I'm actually checking into trying to fly down and drive the car back to South East Texas!
even if it means the first stop is Discount Tire to change out the original tires?

Just looking at cost, weather?
and how great it would be to take ownership and put my first 1400 miles on the car with a road trip along the gulf coast!
stop at my favorite casino in Lake Charles to try my luck?
that is after I swoop into New Orleans and say hi to my friends at the Corporation bar!
Ive done the trip before and now would be a good time to get acquainted with the car!
have no concerns at all regarding dependability once the tires are changes out.

Had to spend yesterday and today polishing the Shelby and telling her her new companion will be awesome!! :loser:

Pickin up a cobra and driving back to your destination is awesome, I picked mine up from Texas and drove it to GA, I got the thumbs up from people as well as engine revs, it was cool

I get more Corolla's! wanting to race when I'm in the Shelby :twak:

just found out I'd have to pay the 6% Florida sales tax if I drive it out of the state!

so they just squashed my road trip!
Heck, maybe I can get the carrier to meet me at the boarder!

na!
just leave it alone and wait a couple more days then I can drive it all I want!

All you actually have to pay is what your local sales tax rate, since you are a resident of Texas and will be plating it where you live.
