Thumbs up Shelby!

Shelby Inc., came thru with a new master cylinder!
It's installed and working fine.
Thank you Shelby!

Tom wants some shakedown time, to make adjustments and do some fine tuning.
Should be Monday or Tuesday.

Wink Tomorrow

[ANNIE]
The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
Bet your bottom dollar
That tomorrow
There'll be sun!

Just thinkin' about
Tomorrow
Clears away the cobwebs,
And the sorrow
'Til there's none!

When I'm stuck a day
That's gray,
And lonely,
I just stick out my chin
And Grin,
And Say,
Oh!

The sun'll come out
Tomorrow
So ya gotta hang on
'Til tomorrow
Come what may
Tomorrow! Tomorrow!
I love ya Tomorrow!
You're always
A day
A way!

jdog

Thumbs up All systems GO!

Well we seem to have everything operating. The car is now drivable. I looks like all of the 'bugs' have been conquered!

It is now in the shake-down faze. A day or two to really re-check everything and adjust & tune. If all goes well, I'll pick her up on Thursday or Friday!

jdog
P.S. Tom will shoot some video of when "I" start her up for the first time!

Jdog,

I wish you all the best with your car. I have been following your thread here and on the Shelby Owners forum. My alloy CSX did not take as long as your car and I really felt for you and the other owners of the HST cars in terms of all that you went through.

Default Hey Hey Hey!

I had planned on being at Tom's Friday night to starting going over some future drag racing plans with a frew friends, so I'll be there for sure. Sounds like a small party at Tom's place. Ha!

Jerome,
A group of us are heading to the Folsom show Saturday afternoon/evening from the River City Shelby Club so maybe you can unveil your car there too. Tom replied and said he's planning on bringing the FE-Spec Drag Mustang out to the show, so maybe we'll see ya there too! DC

Hey jdog, just a thought here, you could pry those side emblems off your car and sell them for a tidy sum, to SJK2!
