Who makes the rollers for Shelby for the 50th anniversary cars?
I tried to find it by a search for about 30 minutes with no luck.
Who makes the rollers for Shelby for the 50th anniversary cars? Any specific details are much appreciated. Thanks

Hi-Tech in South Africa makes the fiberglass cars.
I think Kirkham makes the aluminum ones.

What Mark said. Composite cars are built at Hi Tech Automotive in South Africa and alloy cars come from Kirkham's Poland factory via Hi Tech who do the finishing.

hahahahah.
An oversimplification, but yes, they are largely rebadged Kirkhams and Superformances. Just like the non-50 year anniversary cars.

The Hi Tech built cars for both Shelby and Superformance share many items but there are differences in equipment and some components. |

For sure. I was just wondering were they actually made them.
I understand the Superformance vs Shelby of America Cobra bodies are slightly different and the frames are different. The quality should be alike either way. |

I was thinking EXACTLY the same thing.
Someone else is going to have to step up their game to fill the void.
NYG, you up for it? Kidding, just kidding.

Of course the 50th anniversary Daytona Coupes are made by Kirkham in Utah with no stops to Poland or South Africa on their way to Shelby (as far as I know).

You might want to call SA and ask that question............
Look here: Shelby 50th Anniversary Cobra Daytona Coupe | Hillbank Motor Corporation And you will see the composite 50TH coupes are Hi Tech built so the source depends upon which body you choose. And there are major difference between the ally and plastic cars. |
