A Shelby GT 500 In A Garage For Forty Years!

This is one of those stories that you would like to live yourself, but I have to admit that I never have. I wonder what sort of karma it takes to find a fascinating, valuable car in a garage somewhere? Anyway, take a look at this – it will help take your thoughts away from base level restorations to reality. Trust me, I’ve been through two or three “start from scratch” restoration efforts. I can tell you, there is never enough money when you have the time, and never enough time when you have the money, and never ever enough knowledge to do everything right the first time!

Enjoy the video, and say “hello” to Shelby, the cat, for me – he’s my kind of guy!
