The 4th addition to my Mustang/Shelby batch builds. This one will be orange with a 428 Cobra Jet.

After much hard work, stress, and then more work I finally finished my 68 Shelby Gt 500. First mistake you ask? I let my wife decide how to finish the interior tub...never again! Second mistake? I tried to make this model into a silk purse but forgot how to spin silk! All kidding aside it took about 5 months to finish but that was mostly because of getting my greenhouse going this spring, then rebuilding all of my raised bed garden boxes and bringing in new soil etc and getting the beds ready, then along came the hail storm on the 6th of May that tore up allot of my hard work, fixed that with much gnashing of teeth, hand wringing, and I swear if I had been younger I would have smacked the insurance adjuster in the mouth! Then came camping season, had to replace brakes, tires, wheel bearings, and oh so much more work than I anticipated on my pop up camping trailer. But lo and behold all is well and I finished the car with a flourish a week ago. Anyway, I am going to try to post some pics of it, I can't go through photobucket because for what ever reason I cannot sign in. Please be nice in your criticisms but I can take some punishment as well so I hope you all "like" this car. On to the next project....
