1 Attachment(s)
I don’t usually read the Atl J-C (wouldn’t line a bird cage with it) :LOL:. Anyway as I was bending down to pick up the WSJ outside my office I saw this picture in the paper which piqued my interest. This car looks great I think. Hope its lot less expensive than the GT-40.
PS hope the picture comes out or I'll need a lesson from Chill on how to post pic's |
I guess I better look up Chill

Alex,
Try this site, I hope this is what you are looking at: Check this out if you have a moment http://bradbarnett.net/mustangs/show...rs04/index.htm Clois Harlan 918-499-4238 |
Wow.

Alex, you mean the Atlanta urnal and constipation, got a monthly greasing at the waffel house this morning and saw the same artical , then stopped by NAPA and they had a magazine (forgot) with the GT-1 spread, slight resemblance of the coupe I believe. Looks damn good.

This Shelby GSR "concept car" was at Monterey Concorso Italiano last week. I spoke with the designer for a bit. It had no engine and a false interior as a mock up for now. The stated purpose was to receive feedback. It was sitting right next the "concept" V10 Cobra.
It looked more like a modern day version of Daytona Coupe in the rear, and a similar look to the Ford GT front end. I took pics with my non-digital cam, but you will see magazine pics by the time i can post them. Looked pretty nice in person, but still had that Ford hard edge look to it vs. something that flowed a bit more. The designer stated to me that he is not sure if they are going to produce it or not yet. Seems they were still looking at quote: "feedback on both the V10 Cobra "concept" and the new Shelby GSR "concept" cars "". |
Looks like it takes alot of styling cues from the Ferrari 612 Scaglietti - but that's my opinion.
|
That looks very intersting... kinda looks like the result of the mating of a FordGT and Jaguar (I will let you draw you own conclusions as to who was on top....) %/ ...with just a hint of Vector W12.... :eek:
.....No sidepipes? What is this world coming to??? p.s. Well done Alex. |

When I posted that pic I had to down size it to 40,000 bytes. You see the results. I used the 'attach file' box with the browse below. Above tho there is a button that has IMG on it. Is that what I should use??:confused: |
I put any pictures I want to attach in my Gallery first, then paste the picture "properties" into the IMG box.... seems to work.
|
I guess now I have to figuer out how to add pictures to My Gallery. Have a good one of TC fishing....... :LOL:

I like the newer Shelby prototype over the previous one.
Rumors: Autoweek(?) said it would replace the GT(40) when it's production was over. They speculated that it would be aimed at the Viper (around $85K). It would use the same chassis (and some other parts) as the GT so that would keep the price down (below the GT). Yea, the AJC sucks. Why can't we have a decent newspaper in Atlanta?:confused: |
