Since I do not post on the "Classic Talk" side (except once in the past six months - today) has anyone been to the Shelby museum at this link?

http://www.shelbyamericancollection.org/collection.html

If so give your views and opinions as I am planning a trip out that way. Also, for tech's sake, do they have any exhibits other than the actual cars?

Thanks,

Ive been there. Its pretty cool. Its basically what you see in the photo on the link you posted. Just one large room with several shelbys. They have a couple of GT350s, alot of 427s, and some other misc. race cars. Of course that was at least 1-2 years ago and i think they change the exhibit every now and then. Its worth visiting for sure!

Thats in CO, right? I was driving across the states a couple of years ago and wanted to stop in but they had real limited hours, so call first and plan ahead, it was wierd, like they were only open a couple days a week or something...

It is worth the trip! I used to live about 40 minutes away from there until I moved out to Cali. It is located just outside Boulder in a metal warehouse type building. You wouldn't think it would house anything important until you walk in the front door. It is a great display and worth the time.
