Steve McDonald's '66 GT350 cover of AACA
« on: February 03, 2022, 12:10:34 PM »
Just got my copy of AACA (Antique Automobile Club of America) bi-monthly magazine in the mail an on the cover and inside is featured SAAC's own Steve McDonald's '66 GT350.

There is also a couple feature articles in the Spring 2022 "The Shelby American" on the annual Hershey Fall event.

Congrat's Steve you certainly are the SAAC spokes' person getting your Real Shelby out and driven!

There is a great story about the GT350 Tour in the newest Shelby American
It’s was an amazing week starting with Hershey and ending with the GT350 Tour
Winning an AACA Junior Award and then driving 700 miles plus on the tour was just so much fun. It’s what the cars were made for.
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎

Congrats!  Yours has a long history worthy of reporting!

Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

But your car was rarer, and much better looking
