You said it Mike. You can build your own for a lot less.

I'm a Shelby supporter, but I didn't like the Eleanor's, and I don't like these new 350R's. I personally feel that there are simply not enough Mustang fastbacks around to be doing this to them...unless they are resurrecting them all from junkyards (which you know they aren't).

I sometimes question whether or not some of these project ideas are Shelby's, or some aftermarket company who has convinced him to do this, so that they can all try and profit from the Shelby name. No sir, I don't like it. I don't like it a bit.

Now if Shelby starts manufacturing all NEW vintage-style Mustangs, without using originals as donor cars, then that could be a different story.
