  My point of view, photos to follow.
   Always a good show.  Finally saw a 67 GT500 with the two piece nose.  The early/prototype 65 display was excellent, then there was another area where there was 67's. I had a long chat with Tony who owed a blue 67 GT500.
    During that time a fellow named "Max" who was from the Netherlands, was asking about the scoop lights on car #0051 (right next to Tony's GT500).  Right comment at the right time as I own #0036.  Turns out Max owns 6 67 Shelbys and also a 66.
   Back at Vintage Authentication area , there were a 69/70 Shelby convertible, and a 65 GT 350 - original family owners, plus a 70 Mustang 428 car.
  All by itself there was a 66 GT 350 carryover car #0248.  The owners were from Lakeland Florida.  Small world as my wife's grandmother lived there and my father-in-law built a house there.
   Ran into Nick G who owns 67 #1690 (no he didn't buy me dinner) as he was looking over Bill Collins's 65 GT 350 prototype.  Nick introduced me to Bill and, Bill and I both have owned our Shelbys for 52 years.  Teeny-tiny world isn't it?
   More Cougars at the show this year than I have ever seen in one place, including a 68 GTE with a 427 engine.

  We've all seen the photos of that 70 Superbird that floated out of the garage and ended up top down outside haven't we?  It was at the show. (ah, no photo taken) It was said that it will be repaired and at the MCACN show in about two years.

Ford GT, the blue GT500 spent a lot of time in Italy, that is the reason for the side marker lights.

 Cougars:  The 69 is an Eliminator but I have no idea what is under the hood.
  The 67 is said to have had a 289 that ran low 13's in the quarter mile.

great pictures by all, thank you for posting
If you've never been to this show put it on your bucket list
The pictures don't do it justice and meeting the owners makes it even more special
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎
