I don't think you have to worry - Shelby ain't going nowhere until he wants to.

Machineman,
Never thought about that...have to talk to the accountant. jamvan, I will be in the office tomorrow. Seems like a few customers wanted to come buy. I just sent you an email. djseed, Shelby has been in business a long time and has more than one company. The Las Vegas operation doesn't make the blocks. I expect them to be in business for a long time. He has a great name and he wrote a BIG chunk of our world's automotive history. He got where he is because he works hard. Not too many people can claim to have won Le Mans BOTH as a driver AND as a team. I can't. Pat, I agree. David:):):) |
Anybody with a decent CNC mill should be able to whip one of those blocks in a few days.

Hmmm.....:3DSMILE:
|
Turk,
Actually, less than one day. David:) :) :) |
So what we're really saying is that if Kirkham can do such a good job replicating the car, why couldn't they replicate a side oiler? I can't think of anyone more suited to the challenge...

One the list
I just couldn't hold back any longer...
I made the leap into ownership. ...having made the decision to take the leap based on nights posting exchanges, I will soon be a new owner of one of the Kirkham's (oops) 427s! Deposit is en route via overnight FedEx. Every once in a great while, luck and not skill win out. Thanks to those great folks.... |
BD,
Did you mean Kirkham or Kirkland, I think they are both sold at Costco.:D |
David,
Congratulations on a successful sale. I hope these experiments help you find what your looking for. XL |
I moved this thread as it is an industry announcement by a paid advertiser.
|
Good Move Brent.
Happy New Year. I hope that you were one of the lucky ones that obtained an alloy new year's present! |
bdriver,
Welcome and enjoy. |
I was one of the lucky to take David up on his offer. I was in Provo today, and I was never happier to write a $5000 check in my life. A few observations.
1. David was dead serious about the offer. No hedging, weaseling or waffeling. This was a stand and deliver deal from a stand and deliver organization. 2. If you have not seen a Kirkham car in person, you must -- incredible. The Rolex of the industry IMHO. 3. I'm the guy who never wins anytthing, but I feel like I came pretty darn close today. Thanks, David! |
W. Mitty, CONGRATS.
Just as David Kirkham stands and delivers. I will too. TC, awaiting a 289 something or other. Details to be worked out. |
Mr. Mitty
Panerai.;) |
Congrats Washington Mitty boy...:D You deserve it!!!
|
My enthusiasm overtakes me once again....I just support W. MITTY....I have the same feeling.

Walter Mitty,
Posting sounded eloquent and heartfelt... Congrats... |
maybe a "tard" question: but did they mean Jan 17 2004? or 2003. Just checking..........I'm NEW here, and this is on the front page.
