...At 16 years old in the mid 60's I had a new 65 Mustang Convertible. The hi performance cars were on the move. We were always scoping out Shelby dealers an the back lots. A 427 Cobra was beyond dreams at that point. 70's came an I dived into the Shelby market. Them started to whine every day to the wife I needed a 427 Cobra 1976 a day before my daughter was born I got it CSX 3147. Kept it till 1980 an then the thrill was fading. Especially with prices goin threw the roof. Sold it. Still kept a 66 GT350 Convertible. Went threw a lot of hi performance cars over the years.
........ 2015 the Shelby left an got a CSX 4000 car.. It's been a blast ! Prob keep it a few more years and it will be gone. Variety is the spice of life. Especially as ya get older.
..Oh I have never said to myself "oh I shouldn't have sold the car or anyone one of them"
