I think I mentioned that I did not get to go to this year's Midnight at the Oasis Car show; as work and family commtiments just ate up my weekend NoKitten did get to go and he brought back pictures of yet another Shelby GT500KR 'vert - a red-painted mate to the greegn one I almost religiously go to the car show just to over.
NK only had pictures, no info on the car, and I figured that I'd shot the one chance at seeing it (booooo!). Guess what? I was wrong, big time! I found out that the "new guy" lives only 4 blocks East of me! Belongs to an acquaintance of mine; had a job fixing some of his house wiring (phone-guy stuff); and I mentioned that I missed the show & how was it? He told me that I then must have missed his "new" car.....and guess what it was?
She is indeed RED! My friend Bill is the (he thinks) 4th owner; it's been restored once and he had the cowl repainted to match the rest of the car (paint bubbles after cowl repair). Went back to Florida and picked it up after last years' MATO. Pretty, pretty car; and the exhaust rumble quadrupled my heart rate!
At the rate things are going; all the rare Shelbys will soon be sucked out of the East Coast and end up in SW Arizona
Still Dreamin'
