So you DO NOT want anyone to know both numbers?? Just what people can see. I remember over the years people would take pictures of tags. Would it be best to cover the numbers up with blue tape? In NY the vin is on the registration sticker.

Guess I have to get my search going better, I need a spare and another spare would not hurt my 4...

Would you please explain why this is a bad idea? Just wondering. I would like to have concrete reasons for this. In case I was ever to sell my car, I would want to explain this to a potential buyer asking for that info.

I drove my 67 GT350 to a small car show yesterday, did not show it, because I could not stay long, as soon as I parked, one guy came up and said, "Tribute, right?" as he nodded.
I said, no its real. He told me he never saw one before, he also pointed out his 65 Mustang convertible (fake GT) to me. I guess I find it interesting and I am not sure I understand it. Here is a guy with a fake car asking me if my car is a fake?!?!
I hate to sound like a jerk, but I just am not into driving my cars places to be asked if my car is a fake. I feel it is insulting to my Shelby when I hear people say, "Clone, Tribute, etc." NO, its a FAKE, I might have left then and there is he called it and "Eleanor"!!!!!! As we all can see, the Eleanor Bump is over with 67 Shelby values.

Thank BJ and the old ponytailed and bald men that buy them with the money they will not be leaving to kids!
Revology, cars then make sense. They basically are stock looking, but the interior and wheels are "resto-mod" looking. At least they do not look hideous, and they have nice engines, transmissions, suspension, and braking.

The Lounge / Re: Scammer alert
« on: September 19, 2021, 11:58:14 AM »I received a similar private message saying their "friend" has some original Goodyear Blue Dot tires that I am looking for for a Cobra. $1200 with only 40k miles.
User is: JG01 He says to email his friend at kennethlynn44@gmail.com
The scammer just opens a new account with a different user name. Everyone please be careful before you agree to send money to anyone.
I know this sucks, but if you pay someone with "Friends and family" you are screwing yourselves for getting your money back, if you never receive the item you bought.

« on: September 17, 2021, 03:35:16 PM »I think you Shelby guys need to respect this guy. NUMBER ONE, he drives a MANUAL. NUMBER TWO, watch the second video, if that is not you, you better just sell your SHELBY NOW!
When someone talks about his or her car and uses the word "emotional" that means a lot. If you have not felt emotional after a long respiration process, its time to sell.
Sure, sure, but he gets emotional with new sneakers. They're always the best he's ever had!
I always get all teary eyed when I drive mine but that's because the exhaust is too rich.
Good one! I must admit, not knowing much about him, I just thought that he related his feelings well. I am upside down on my Boss 302, but I said to my wife, "5 deadbeat shops, the 6th place was where I should have took it in the beginning, its a matter of proving everyone who saw it, said it could never get done! Is it worth this cost after all the others? Yes."

In my old area, we had an incident where a cop that got fired from the force, and his girlfriend a current officer were soooo drunk leaving a bar, (where it is known to be heavily patrolled), got about 5 miles away, speeds of 90mph according to witnesses, she was on the back wobbling and finely fell off as well as he, legs were removed as well as arms, they actually found her gargling, (alive), he was gone. Crazy thing the bike managed to make it almost a 1/2 mile where it smashed into a sign. The public never got to hear the results of the doxology report to this day.

China just rules the world...:-("
