| 66 Shelby's restoration |
| Hi ! To begin, this car was bought in
France, on an auction, in 1997. Some signs of age were visible, but the car
seemed authentic and in good running order. Unfortunately, the dismantling revealed that the body was out of shape, and I saw many signs of bad repairs (welding spots). This Shelby had probably undergone a crash during a race, with rear impact and turn(s) over. In these circunstances, it was necessary to begin large and interesting works. Pierre |
