Ready as we will ever be. Some small items to organize tomorrow. Bring it Irma, you got nothin. 

I gotta ask...what's your ride? I wanna guess stang, but just not enough for me to be sure. Looks tight...hope it's untouched by Irma. Oh, and you guys too...

1966 Shelby GT350 race car.  Race for a couple of decades. I raced it for a couple of years, then freshened it up and retired it as I grew too old to be 100% confident with a car that is not for the timid. One of about 100 Sapphire blue 1966 Shelby's

I de-tuned it around 2004,  put the interior back in it, and made it almost street legal. I don't get crazy with it on the street, so I don't get hassled.

Headphones help give it the proper ....well you know.  I restored about 6 classic shelby's with my two sons, then moved on to supercharged S351  Saleens to keep them interested. I had a theorty, if they sweat over fixing a car up, they would never wreck it. Luckily, it worked.

Its always for sale! One of the modern beasts.....nothing like a modern chassis to put 515 RWHP to the pavement.

Both the red and white cars are 1995 S351 cars. red is #49, and the white one is #111.

 

 

I am the second owner of #111. #49 was found in a barn in Montana, I spent 2 years returning  to its original glory. It is one of a very few original leather recaro cars.  The original Alcon brakes had been stolen as well as other vital pieces. It has been a labor of love.

 

S351,= (especially the R models) cars to those who like Saleens, are the  Holy Grail Mustangs.

Now, this might show my ignorance on the subject, but are car videos where you back up 4 1/2 feet a thing?
