Look for an announcement of availability in February.

The person who got the 1967 Shelby from the junk yard and turned it into a coffee table is a SAAC member and made sure the Registrar got the Vin. number and details. The car was white originally and had at least one color change. Yes, someone did rebody the car and it is in the Registry.

Quote from: GT350DAVE on January 08, 2022, 09:36:16 PMUnfortunately the buyer did not check with the 67 Registrar.

What could he tell them without a "real" number?

A lot. For one thing an honest assessment of the car when it was first found, including photographs. It has changed significantly since then. Content of discussions with previous owners, claims and research done on the car.

Can't wait to see photos of your efforts.

They picked a number out of the Registry in order to sell it. The number they picked has a San Jose date of 3/15/67 and a Shelby completion date of 4/5/67. The characteristics of the rear clip do not match these dates. It was definitely the wrong number.. Unfortunately the buyer did not check with the 67 Registrar. All is not lost if he can find racing history for it. We are hopeful he is successful at finding that history.
Dave

Wow,
The car sure has changed in the past few years. Here, let's look in the Registry and pick a number.
Total BS.

I think stable mates is an interesting topic. Maybe a good topic for another thread.
Dave

I am open to a lot of brands but my stable mates are mostly Ford's. My love is 67 Shelby cars however.
Dave

The car is in Germany.

Has anyone purchased the Danial Carpenter reproduction horns? I'm wondering how close to original they are.
Dave

I think it might be #742

I live in a heavily wooded area and have had mouse problems every winter in a barn on our property. I've tried ultrasonics drier sheets, irish spring soap, peppermint oil, mothballs, poison blocks and just about everything else you can think of. Mouse traps catch some of them (more than a dozen a year) but others seem to ignore the traps. Moth balls work in a small area like under a hood.
We have had extensive damage done to our every day vehicles, including having to replace part of the wiring harness in my F150.
The idea is to prevent mice from ever getting in the building to begin with.
This summer I bit the bullet and hired a company that seals buildings. They showed up with metal forming equipment and covered every possible area with aluminum flashing. I have been all around the building with a light and it appears to be sealed. This winter will tell.

This is an old topic but a good one and meant to report back on having The building professionally sealed. It worked. Last winter, I had no mice in that building. The building has 4 overhead doors. One of the things the sealing people did was bent metal flashing strips in the lower corners of the overhead doors. These strips go up from the ground about 6 inches and bridge the intersection of the door and the outside door trim. Previous years I had found the rubber door seals in that intersection chewed. I believe these pieces stopped the bulk of mice traffic.
