07 SHELBY 09-30-2006, 07:39 PM Thought it might be interesting to break down the ages of Shelby owners here. I just feel fortunate that I have one!I have wanted one since I was 8. shlbysvt 09-30-2006, 07:49 PM Ditto, I was using my slide rule at the time Daddy-O.:) scgt500 09-30-2006, 09:46 PM 52 years young......just got word that my shelby is sitting in a railcar waiting to get shipped ...good.. good..news........ shlbysvt 10-01-2006, 03:17 AM 1 vote 80 to 89, must be Carroll Shelby himself at the polling booth. dsabldvt 10-01-2006, 06:13 AM Turned 57 last month. Have kicked myself over and over again since I got rid of my '66 fairlane( 427 wedge, side oiler, cam, solid lfters, headers, 1050 Holley 3 barrel, Hurst 4-speed, 4:11 rear end[which I had to replace soon after getting it], set up for the strip) that I had while in the Navy in 1969 in Connecticut. There wasn't anything around that could touch it on the street. Got married and traded the car. Got rid of the wife but couldn't find the car. Have wanted something with similiar power since. It will be interesting to see if the 500 will give me the same thrill. I could power shift my Fairlane @ 7200 RPM's and she didn't flinch. I couldn't get on it in 1st gear, but when you slammed it into second you almost couldn't get out of your seat back to get into third. Sorry, I tend to ramble when I remember that car.
