Forgive me for sounding dumb, but is it legal to hold a 50% deposit (on fiberglass) on something that doesn't exist and may take several years to build? Who holds the money? An escrow company?

Does each dealer have a different deposit agreement?

All Deposits are forwarded to Shelby by the dealer. In this case you needed $35,000 (half of the $70,000) to get the roller ordered on the 50th anniversary 289. Shelby will not build the car without half down to start.

Here are some pictures of the 50th Anniversary Car at Barrett Jackson 2011. Absolutely stunning.












I'm going to be finishing a number of these cars for customers with ford 289 hipo. The traditionalist build. Anyone who wants help putting it together give me a call.

Also for those who missed out. Shelby America builds the CSX 8000 series car, which is what this car is. It can be ordered in any color and option package. It just will not be a 50th anniversary car. It also will cost $10,000 less. So $60,000 for the roller in Fiberglass.
