Tru,

Maybe this will cheer you up. After two day of nice sun, it is cloudy, sprinkling, and bitter cold with wind today. I don't even want to go into the garage. And we may have snow soon. The little mountians over by the dam, (7 Miles ) from here are covered and that wind comes down the canyon and right across the snow. So even if I had my carb back, I wouldn't be out putting it on.

That waiting 26 months for a car of any kind is ridiculous, and I don't care what anyone says. In the end, Shelby will be more hurt by that than the others as he is the person in the spotlight. It is a shame that any of those people are having to wait so long. I know that like any head of a company he does not personally make the cars, but in my opinion he is ultimately responsible to see that the ones ordered are made and in the time frame quoted. Some times things happen that are beyond anyone's control, but I think the main problem with Shelby is the middle management. To me this would be some what like ordering a Corvette from Turk, and then being told it will be here some day. Not Turk's fault as he is the dealer and goes by what those he orders from says. Then to get the Corvette you have to go to the head of General Motors. Probably not a good example, but the way I see it.
