Great stuff!

Tuto: Really cool livery/paint scheme. Noticed the track tow hook. Have you tracked the car?

Keep the pics coming.

No one knows the original colors offered by SAI? Can't be.

Here's an interesting website that allows you to search for paint colours and codes by year, make and model:

PaintRef.com - Automotive Truck Fleet Paint Color Code Cross Reference

Wasn't the red referred to as Rangoon red???

Was yellow a color that was offered? Didn't know that.

I found several different names for red. Rangoon was one of them.

At least one source I found said yellow was an original color. I'm not certain.

I also found some sources that identified colors that were specifically applied to SC cars by Shelby, but wasn't real clear about whether those colors were available for a street car. That was a long list.

I'm going to take a closer look at some books when I get home.

Thank you sir. No track time so far, but the tow hooks are functional, and I thought they look good
Cheers!
