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!

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.
