Just want to add a customer experience of the services.  Shelby Parts has restored my full suspension and steering for 2 cars as well as numerous other related parts.  The returned parts are always perfect and the service is very reasonably priced.

I compared your two exhaust parts to the prices on Tony Banda's site, and your parts were less expensive, especially one of them. I'll check out your inventory when it comes time to start buying items for my future Shelby.

Thanks Jim! ...and Jesse, too  ;)

That is a very nice looking Shelby, but I couldn't justify spending over $700K for any Shelby. I wouldn't even pay that much for any muscle car; maybe a Ferrari, if I was some industrialist, but I'm sure I wouldn't spend that much on anything, other than a house.

Post by: SNAKEBIT on September 27, 2018, 07:53:23 PM
Good question. I'd like to know that answer to that, too! Then again, that is the way they came from the factory. It would be a curious talking point when people ask you about it, if they do. I'll have to think about what I might do in the future about that.

Most wouldn't but Ron Pratte isn't most people.  700K  is pocket change for a billionaire.  He was a very analytical buyer asking for a private viewing prior to the auction of all the paperwork and viewing the car and the mods Carroll made to it, which we kept in the restoration

In the many years I've been doing business with Jim C. he has consistently produced restored parts of the highest possible quality. Without exception, there is no finer work being done anywhere else, and always at a fair and reasonable price.

As far the the comprehensive list of restoration services  goes, I think it would easier to just list what Jim DOESN'T do. Such a list would be very very brief.  ;)

Hello,
This is Jesse from Shelby Parts and Restoration. As many of you may have heard, Jim is quite sick and has not been around the shop for some time. He is currently doing his best to get healthy enough to come back to work, but we do not have an ETA. I have been heavily involved with a neighboring shop for the last 2 years and have not been around Shelby Parts on a daily basis as I once was.  Unfortunately, that means I do not know where Jim left off on many orders and projects. That said, I am putting a halt on new orders to concentrate on the backlog and get everything back up to speed. I would appreciate if anyone who has an outstanding order for parts or parts they sent in for restoration to please contact me and let me know what you are waiting on.  I cannot predict or promise when I will be available on the shop phone, so  please email Jesse @ shelbyparts com  and I will do my best to get back to you.
 Please let me know what you ordered/sent, approximately when you ordered and/or sent it, as well as your phone number and address.
Thanks,
jes

WOW, this is a bummer. Jim and Jesse have been a joy to work with. Jim gets much of the credit for how nicely his business operates and the services he offer, but Jesse is a great wingman. I wish Jim a comfortable, speedy, and full recovery and I give Jesse a great deal of thanks and recognition for what he did for me and his involvement in keeping the business moving forward during this troubling event.

Keep fighting the good fight gentlemen!
