Though it should be noted that some DMVs list Ford on titles..Even while they use the SA vin...go figure...
Quote from: 557 on February 19, 2018, 04:08:43 PMThough it should be noted that some DMVs list Ford on titles..Even while they use the SA vin...go figure...Although the MFG of record, Shelby was a obscure MFG relatively speaking and because of that rather then check some DMV's simply used "Ford" . When presented with reasonable proof they will cave to the reality. Food for thought however ,a Shelby is a Shelby regardless of it says Ford or SA on the title ,registration etc. the Shelby name may smooth our pride and egos BUT it is a tool for local governments that charge sales tax or annual personal property tax to get more money from you in tax's. If you are lucky enough to have your car assessed at a lower value like a regular Mustang that can always change in the future when city and state governments looking for extra income use a algorithm to sort out all of the Shelby's and Cobras for re assessment of value for the purpose of taxation of the added value. The point is you might think twice about changing a titled to Shelby for that taxation reason. I know of Cobra owners with Ford on their title that if the sometimes 7 figure value was known by the tax man would cost them quite a bit more every year. Just sayin
Here's a curve that we have spoken of in the past . My original California title lists the make as GT350 and model cpe for coupe. MANY here were done like that
CS held that mfg license up until 1998 when he moved SAI to NV / he kept the license all those decades
No not really. While they started out as R codes, Ford ( at the KK facility) modified them to Boss 429 configuration "before" sale to the public. They were sold with the Z engine code not R. The end customer didn't "buy a CJ" and take it to KK for mods.
Since you brought it up........Didn't some 1969 Boss 429 Cars have an "S" Code?
I thought he changed to Shelby Automobiles when Shelby American/Series 1 situation went south?
