Hi rpmracing, What a beautiful job you've done there. When I look at your photos it's like I'm looking at the real full size car, the detail is that good. Well done. Stu.

Guys, Thank You Very Much. I have absolutely enjoyed this model.

It's been a tough few years, with my Heart Surgery in 2017, Muscle disorder diagnosis in 2019 and then getting Covid-19 and hospitalized for 31 days in December 2020-January 2021 and being on oxygen for 6 months, and literally just getting off oxygen 4 weeks ago, Needless to say it has been some trying times.

But, I knew this is what I wanted to see as soon as I could.... The Finished Shelby !!!

This is, by far, my most cherished model to date.

Again, I want to extend a SPECIAL Thanks to Roymattblack, pbhawkins and Andreesb for their help in my getting this model finished.

Roy's help with the hose selection and how to connect certain items under the hood.

Andreesb for specific info on firewall wiring, clamps, etc.

And pbhawkins (Peter) for sending me, free of charge, trunk material from halfway around the world.

Thanks to all who commented on the thread and always saying kinds words that kept me going !!!!

Sincerely,
Rich
