Kirkhams are made by the Kirkhams. I never met these two guys, but if you spend any time on this forum, you know they have a great deal of integrity, care very much about their customers, go out of their way to do things right, are honest, great engineers, really like what they are doing, are dedicated and focused on their product, make the best of the best, talk directly to anyone that posts on this forum, answer the phone themselves the first time you call. The list goes on and on.

I had a defective pin drive for my Compomotive wheels. Tom made me a custom set of pins out of proper material, properly heat treated, and at a most-reasonable price. Tom talked to me on the phone about it. He doesn't know me. I didn't buy a car or anything else from the Kirkhams. But he goes out of his way to fix a part on my roadster for me. I'm bloody proud just to have a set of pins from these guys. I'd really like to meet them and shake their hand some day. They are top-notch people.

As for the Shelby, I really don't know anything about it or the people that make it. All this based upon reading and participating on this forum.

I know what I would buy if I were in that class of roadster.
