At the risk of ....... got to share my new Shelby GT500

Post by OldToenailCollector »

Knife guys/gals-
If you don't know me by now, let me say, I am as hard core a knife collector as is out there....have enough "invested" in old knives and cutlery "stuff" to send all 4 of my kids through college, BUT...I have just gotten turned on to something I got to share with my friends....

So at the risk of someone thinking I am bragging or being showy (spelling?), I can only say, if we can't share things with each other here, then we can't anywhere......so here goes....since we show each other our pride and joy knives all the time I feel you will allow me to share my new ride with you...... it is as much fun as collecting knives ::ds::

My wife finally agreed to let me get my convertible :D

HMMMMM, A Shelby huh! ....OK Scott, whats it do in the 1/4 & whats the HP rating? ....Being a convertible don't you feel it needs a crome roll bar, they are good for looks & an extra safe feture to boot! .... Even though I'M not a Ford man, I really like most of the Shelby cars, back in my race day's I had the chance to drive both the GT-350 & the GT-500 in 1967 & loved the handling on both cars! ....Very nice Scott!

FORD was a good company

Too bad FORD has gone political and is sponsoring some pretty bad views, with lots of your money. I'm boycotting Ford, and I suggest if you have children or care about America's future you look into it as well.
