I bought my first Shelby in the spring of 1977, a 1968 GT500KR. After owning it about a month, I went to pick up my friend and give him a lift to school early one morning. His dad finished his coffee, walked out to the garage, got in his car as he would every morning, and backed into my Shelby as I had parked in the driveway behind his car. It crushed the headlight buckets and header panel. I remember being SO thankful that there was a supplier where I could get replacement parts -- Branda. I have no idea how many orders I phoned in to Branda over the years but every one was delivered quickly and accurately and any problems were quickly resolved. I would venture a guess that 99% of the '65-70 Shelby Mustangs today are wearing a Branda supplied part. God Speed Tony and thank you for helping me enjoy Shelbys for so many years.
