Nothing has changed at Shelby. When I originally ordered CSX4795, I had ordered, a glove box & heater & no roll bar or hood scoop. I think you know what I had in mind.

Well, as things went and 'production problems' arose at Shelby, it was agreed by all that I would be lucky to get even a stock roller. So all options were deleted, and I did finally receive my car. She is a box stock 427sc!

P.S. The side pipes take a little getting used to, but I kind'a like them now!
