From my limited knowledge, I thought that Kirkham supplied cars to Shelby?
If that is the case then the Shelby car should be the same quality as the Kirkham car?
I am not sure what the buy price difference is but if I could afford it and the Shelby car was within approx 15- 20% of the Kirkham car then I would get the Shelby, purely for bragging rights and resale value.
If the price difference was higher I would most likely go the Kirkham (dont need to brag that much).
If however Shelby cars are supplied from a different source and the quality is not to the same standard as Kirkham then I would go with the quality car.
