Exclamation Shelby from South Africa

Brent:

I received yr adverts for $39,995 to be made by CAV, an established GT40 manufacturer in SA. It seemed a great idea and clearly you want to compete with Superformance.
Now SAI apparently caused a major upset for CAV, ending up with taking everything and CAV staff to own their own plant. This is NOT the way we as customers want this industry to act. Now customers are waiting for Shelby cars to be produced by a new plant, without any experience, still to be trained, in a country where the labor (labour) do not speak English. Clearly you have problems as you offer to refund deposits. I lived in SA and know it is a troubled region. You lost a valuable partner, CAV, and now face off with Superformance, who are well established???
Also I believe SPF own AC in UK!!

John
