Steve, I'll warn you now that you'll have a heart attack if you see the pictures of my nearly completed car that I took last week. If you want to be an icon for Shelby, maybe I should be the anti-icon. Nothing on my car looks anything like it should, based on historical accuracy. As much as I truly appreciate the detail that goes into replicating how the cars would/should have looked in the 60's, my latest car is simply a chance to drive a no holds barred racecar on the road without the local police taking too much notice. What other car could I drive on the street with an 800+hp motor, dual 5" exhaust, Avgas, heim-jointed suspension, 12" wide tires, and all at only 2400lb. Any Mustang/Fairlane/Camaro/Chevelle would attract unwanted police attention, never mind what they weigh. The cops over here love all Cobras, and even tolerate the louder ones. 
I'll post a link to the video as soon as I get it converted to a digital format. It might be a little while away, but it will happen.
