I ordered my CA vanity plates today...R8R EV8R RADAR EVADAR

Will post mine with MGW's frame as soon as I am able to place my order. In NYS you have to wait 30 days, or at least till the dealer submits and Motor Vehicle records dealer issued plates. Do not want to give up my vanity till it is issued. Great vanity ShelbyWise.

Great I hope it works!

Here is mine. My better half's name is Emily and her nephews used to call her Emmy when they were small. Her middle initial is G. I have been calling our Shelby EMMY G since before it was ordered! Emily was not fooled by my effort to make it seem like the car was hers! Oh, well!

The old B17 bus, great avatar Ralph.:D :D Tell me you are a NYC bus driver. Drove a yellow while I went to college in NYC. Or better yet the B17 Flying Fortress.

Ok here's mine.Can you guess who I am.

Where's the California dust cover? :D Just tried mine out for size today.

If you are talking to me it isn't here yet.Any day.

Sorry, I was talking to you. When you get it you will be satisfied. Great fit and nice and light compared to some covers I purchased years ago. I had Shelby GT500 and the snake logo etched on mine.

I got the Snake logo,can't wait to get it.

Got the same cover with the snake logo and Shelby gt500 etched on it. Fits great and very light. Antenna is easy to remove so you don't have to put a hole in it.

Hey CobraSD what part of San Diego are you in? I'm in Del Mar. I've ordered a custom plate but it is not here yet so I have the plain Jane standard issue for now. Here's what it will be:

Hats off to you b17drvr. My buddies dad flew 27 missions before being shot down over Japan and taken prisoner. He was a ball teret gunner. Took a ride in one this summer during an air show. $350 bucks and worth every penny.

Was that photo from the Jones Beach Airshow? That was a great show

That was a great air show. See you and I must be neighbors? Congrats on your delivery.

That photo was taken at the Spirit of Flight Airshow in Galveston, TX.

I fly the B-17 and a few other planes for the Lonestar Flight Museum. The B-17 is a great plane--except it is not as fast as a Shelby!

Kickstand - I'm from Minnesota. I imagine there are more Shelby's in CA requiring more creativity developing a vanity plate that hasn't already been used. Do both of your 68's have vanity plates?

B17,
I have owned a house on the west end for 17 years and the B17 used to fly over our house so low it would make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. It was one of the most exciting and stirring things anyone can imagine. Was that you? If it was, thank you. I have seen a white GT 500 on the island a couple of times. Was that your car? I am still waiting on a rail car assignment for my red one. ETA 11/6 then 11/7 then 11/14 then who knows.

We are now in Jamaica Beach on the bay side and would really appreciate being buzzed by the B17 sometime.

I have flown over Jamaica beach many times. My GT 500 is red and white. It will be on the Island tomorrow (with me driving it). I will be over at the Lone Star Flight Museum. It is a thrill to fly that bomber!

Just got my vanity plate confirmation for GGB/SUPT (Golden Gate Bridge Superintendent) for california. Black with white racing stripe,LOADED. Picked up from showroom with car hauler,unloaded and put in storage with 19 original miles. Will decide if to drive 1 year from now. Love the car. Caused a crowd to form when picking it up with the car hauler,as they wanted to know why I wasn't driving it. Wife was unhappy at first but when she saw what the asking price was verses what I paid,she calmed down. Stickers still on car,manuals and mats still in platic as delivered from factory. GGBIW

These cars are way too much fun to practice celibacy for a whole year :(...to each his own though. If I had the kind of $$ it would take to just buy one and sit on it for investment purposes or whatever, I would have bought an extra one to tear up the pavement with...:D Congrats to you nonetheless...:)

You have to drive it a little, it will still be worth top dollar with a 100 or so miles on it :)

The reason I'm waiting 1 year is my driving record. I attended traffic school,but recieved another ticket which brought the other ticket onto my record. I am a responsible driver and commute 126 miles one way to work. Also,I'm contemplating retiring in 1 year so I'll still have the 36000 mile warranty intact.I think I will purchase the extended warrant too. Yes this is hard to do but I do have it and possesion is 9 tenths of the law. Bought one of those car capsules for it so it will always be in perfect condition. I am considering getting another one though and leaving this one alone as an investment. Saw a gt350 go for 168000.00 on Barret jackson the other day. WOW!

I thought they stopped using lead paint on bridges?:D :D No offense ggbiw, I would not have your will power. All the power to you, but you sure are missing a great ride.

Most of us will be dead before our GT500's are worth that kind of money, if ever. I agree with shlbyvst, you are missing a great ride and you only live once.

I have a '65 Cobra....Plates are...... 65 SN8KE My new plates for the GT 500 will be ..............07 SN8KE....The Shelby brothers...:D

We have gone to great lengths to remove the red lead off the Golden Gate. No offense taken,I'm not thin skinned as I manage 20 Ironworkers and 5 Operating Engineers for the Golden Gate .I'm starting the process of buying another Gt500 which I will install the Roush stage 2 kit on.It's going to get awfully hot at my house over this but my wife has stated she wants me to drive it. I'm taking the salesman that sold me the car to the top of the Golden Gate as a token of appreciation.If you check out what the price is on Ebay,It looks like the price is starting to come down based on supply and demand.We'll see what I get the next one for unless my wife files for divorce.

I enjoy the fact that I own one as it has always been my goal to get one.I've set goals in my life and have learned that reaching the goal is very satisfying.I do believe god helps us reach these goals if we give him the glory.Another goal was getting a Rolex president watch which I just purchased.Money is not everything but reaching the goal is.

I have a goal, to not pay $50k for a $37k invoice car. I may fail, but it's fun being an annoying guy on the forums in the meanwhile.

Jonsey show me where $37,000 is the invoice and I will eat my hat!:confused: Not even close for a base model at MSRP! Let's not forget freight and GGT as this is part of BASE.

Nah, I call the car itself 37-38 the base, the ~2k extra on top of it is... well... on top of it.

Call it 40 for "invoice" if you'd like, but I feel it's mis-construing the term.

Jonsey I beg to differ but based on memory, I would venture base is more like 43,000 for a coupe and don't recall verts. I will have to check my paper work at the office tomorrow. I know I paid approximately $48,000 out the door and that was with a 8.625 sales tax rate, which by the way applied to GGT as well meaning tax on tax. My options are obvious based on my sig. I paid MSRP.

Correcton $48,938.11 with sales tax @ 8.625%. Take out the sales tax and you are at $45,052. Now take out Shaker 1000 and leather upgrade and you are at base of approximately $43,000 for a coupe. $42,975 to be exact!

Yep, and that puts you back down to MSRP. MSRP is inclusive of delivery & GGT. Invoice is not, and is a number lower than MSRP.

I blame a crappy day at work for my inability to better explain my points. :)

I guess you are referring to tissue or dealer cost and that is a whole nother issue. You will never see that on this car, not even in 2009.

I tried to stop driving my 67 GT 500 but no luck. I hope after I receive my 2007 I will be able to hold back on the 67 a little. The 2007 will be worth just as much with a few miles on it. People also pay for the past history of the car. Take it for a ride for history.:)

I have "Cobra"...which is harder than you may think to get. I thought about not putting it on this car and trying to get something like GT500 or Shelby. On my 03, the rear bumper had the large COBRA letters and then the plate was right above it....kinda redundant. At least in this case my plate will be the only place the word Cobra is spelled out. What do you guys think?

Look at Ebay. that is what the market will bear. I agree that it would be nice if you could get one at msrp,but the demand for the car is what is pushing the price up. In the beginning they were getting 70000.00 because not many were around. I refused to pay that amount and watched EVERY gt500 sold for a few months. The dealers are being greedy as they are currently turning down 55000.00 and relisting them. I have contacted a few of them and told them they were overpriced as the few that I saw sold were in between 55000 to 60000. The only way you could get one below msrp is if you had a dealers license and had a connection or two. If everyone were to hold out,and more came off the assembly line,supply and demand would force the greedy dealers to come down.I noticed few people willing to pay more than 55000.00

I agree...would have kept it either way. I have owned that plate for 12 years now and this will be the 4th "Cobra" it has been on. The only question in my mind goes back to the initial debate on this car....Is it a "Cobra"?

I really can't think of a better long term investment than a gt500 with the dealer original miles on it.Yes 40 years is a long time which I'll never see,but my heirs will thank me for doing this. I do have the means to get another one and will see what I can get it for. My wife is going ballistic over this,but I make the money and assure her I am not going through mid life crisis. It is my opinion that it will be one of the current gt500 owners that will buy this vehicle when later in life they are very succesful and money is irrevelant. If 2 gt500's come up for aution, 1 with 19 miles,manual,floor mats in original plastic,stickers still on the car, the other with 2000 miles,money is not an issue with the buyer, which do you think he'll want. I believe it's a no brainer which he'll want. It will be one of the current owners that will buy it.

I really can't think of a better long term investment than a gt500 with the dealer original miles on it.

I agree wholeheartedly. Yes, I fully understand long term gains as well as the present value of money. But, 35 years ago I coulda, woulda, shoulda and now I am not letting these cars pass me by.

I own a Torch Red 2007 GT500 that I plan to drive the pants off of. For investment I have signed contracts for a Torch Red 2008 Convertible and a Black 2008 Coupe, both will all available accessories. I have two grandsons, 1 and 3 years old. Connect the dots.

There is no way I can park a couple as an investment and yet deprive myself ( 55 years old ) of the fun I missed in earlier years.

If you see a 07 Torch Red GT500 with the plates 'KENS500' in the Chandler AZ area, give a wave and I'll pull over.

Regards

Ken

Pass on the grand kids. I'll take my GT500 now, ride the pants off of it and look for deal on a Ford GT. Now your talking.:cool: By the way I'm 55 as well and I don't care if I'm going through a mid life crisis.:D :D The grand kids can have the real estate, a much better investment and this way they can't hurt themselves or the cars.:p

+1 shelbyvst,
I'm 57 and don't have any grand kids yet. You are right, they can have the money(if there's any left) and the house and the gas lease and whatever, and take the GT500 however it is when I'm done. I enjoy driving it more every day. 1700 miles in three weeks and I was thinking today that I'm not going to worry about the mileage. If I run out of warranty then I really start the mods and it's cheaper to put in a new engine then buy a new car.

A man must do what a man must do. All I can say is, driving my 67 GT 500 for 40 years did not hurt it's value:)

Well said shelbygot2...In 40 years, I'll be in diapers (hopefully!) and I don't really give a rats ass if my car is worth $100K with 30K miles or $250K with 100 miles on the clock...hell, I'll be lucky if I remember it at all...I really think that shim stock would be a better investment over the long haul...:p

I see I drew a little attetion to my qoute which no one argued about which cobra would be worth more. I could own 5 shelbys if I wanted to. I will get another to put the stage 2 Roush kit on. Like I said, it will be a current shelby owner that will pay the big bucks for it. I don't deprive myself of anything. Going to buy the new ss camaro when it comes out and hemi challenger and do the same as I did to my first shelby. I've done the real estate gig already. 35 years ago I wasn't making 6 figures to afford all the toys.It's amazing how much people don't like me putting a gt500 into hibernation. To each their own!

A man must do what a man must do. All I can say is, driving my 67 GT 500 for 40 years did not hurt it's value:)

If another just like yours with 19 miles on it is put next to it ,which is worth more? If your honest about it , I think you'll see what I'm saying. When I was younger, Obvously I couldn't afford the 67gt500 that you've enjoyed.More power to you.If a 67 gt 500 comes up for auction at Barret Jackson in scottsdale arizona ,with 19 miles on it, it will fetch MORE than half a million. You can bet on it.;)

Do not feed the troll, his sense of economics has been flawed by the speculation market of real-estate.

If you are reffering to myself as being flawed by the speculative real estate market, that is not true. We come into this world with nothing and leave with nothing. If I come across as being full of myself,I apoligize. Everything I own I give credit to the lord for having ,including my job which has enabled me to get my first shelby. I don't have the right to judge you,and wish you the best in getting your shelby. I see your doing your homework so I believe you will get the shelby at the price your willing to pay.:) Lets get back to the vanity plates and forget my investment approach on this vehicle. Again,I apoligize if I come across as arrogant as I'm not.

If you are reffering to myself as being flawed by the speculative real estate market, that is not true. We come into this world with nothing and leave with nothing. If I come across as being full of myself,I apoligize. Everything I own I give credit to the lord for having ,including my job which has enabled me to get my first shelby. I don't have the right to judge you,and wish you the best in getting your shelby. I see your doing your homework so I believe you will get the shelby at the price your willing to pay.:) Lets get back to the vanity plates and forget my investment approach on this vehicle. Again,I apoligize if I come across as arrogant as I'm not.

Amen!

I've got REDGT500 on a New York plate.

If another just like yours with 19 miles on it is put next to it ,which is worth more? If your honest about it , I think you'll see what I'm saying. When I was younger, Obvously I couldn't afford the 67gt500 that you've enjoyed.More power to you.If a 67 gt 500 comes up for auction at Barret Jackson in scottsdale arizona ,with 19 miles on it, it will fetch MORE than half a million. You can bet on it.;)
one already came up they didnt mention the miles so i assume it was more than 19 miles. It went for over 500k and I personally know Shelbygot2's is a better car with more options. Shelbygot2's car has been featured in numerous auto magazines and at many auto events along side some of the best and most expensive car collections in the nation. His car was just picked by Motor Trend to be their feature car in their exhibit at an up coming Autorama. They never asked how many miles it had on it. Low milage is good especially with history behind it but starts being of less importance to many of these collectors> They expect a restoration and they are looking more at quality of the restoration.

one already came up they didnt mention the miles so i assume it was more than 19 miles. It went for over 500k and I personally know Shelbygot2's is a better car with more options

Well, having only 19 miles at least doesn't hurt it's value. Shelby2 is sitting on a GOLD MINE! Taking good care of it and low milage does help the value at Barret Jackson. I see Carrol Shelby has put his gt500 up for a raffle to benefit his childrens foundation. The tickets are 25.00 or 5 for 100.00 at WWW.WINASHELBY.ORG. What an awesome man! I guess you could say he is storing his riches in heaven. I for one will purchase 5 without expecting anything as I have been blessed already.

Just got my Oklahoma Vanity Plate for the Beast....

"ITLIVES"

I got mine last week, IL SHLBY 40.

You do come across as being full of yourself.

here's my vanity plates

There's a garage to dream for! Very nice!

here's my vanity plates

wow nice pic

here's my vanity plates

Now your thinking my way! 2007 500 white with blue on it's way to match up to my blue with white 67 500. NICE SET!

HYPRDRV:D

here's my vanity plates

Now that's a nice garage "FULL"...............................

You do come across as being full of yourself.

I know. I stepped back and read my postings and felt I had to respond because I'm really not that way. I just got a little frustration at all the comments on me not driving it. That's no excuse though and I deserve being called full of myself for how I presented my views. GGBIW

Yes, and while it's good you realize that, I'm afraid you're going to have to give me your GT500.

Once it's got over a thousand miles on it, you won't feel so bad about driving it. :)

ggbiw
Don't ever doubt yourself. Your opinions are just as valid as anyone else in this forum WITHOUT EXCEPTION. Yes; it's good to be humble and admit that there was only one perfect human among us. But don't let other people's opinions shake your confidence. Other people may not agree with you...so what! That's what makes the world interesting; different opinions. A little "attitude" is what I would expect from a GT500 owner anyway.

Still has 19 original dealer miles. It is getting hard not to drive it but I'm trying to hook up on another gt500. White with blue race stripes would be nice. Can't give my gt500 as I don't have the pink slip yet! GGBIW

We're reading out of the same book.

Sweet! Trying hard to get another gt500 .seems to be getting harder right now. The dealers are holding out for 20000.00 to 25000.00 over sticker.I emailed one of the sellers on ebay and informed him his starting bid was above where most of the bidding was ending. He lowered it 8000.00 to 60000.00 but that's still to high. I'm getting good at "whining " about the price. Anyhow, it's great having an awesome forum such as this! GGBIW:)

Hey Jonsey, How are you doing getting your gt500? I'm finding it hard to talk sense to some of these dealers. I might just have to wait for the 2008 year as these dealers are'nt budging. I had 1 dealer ask me if I wanted his white with blue stripes gt500. When I told him I would give him 10000.00 over msrp he stopped emailing me. I guess I'm in the whiners circle now. GGBIW

Welcome to the suck, kid. :)

Right now, I'm idling until the 2008s. The only dealers willing to talk sense are sold out, but want to sell me a GT/ShelbGT.

But, mostly I'm using contacts with Ford... hell, I had someone who's been sponsored by Ford Racing hook me up with one of the biggest dealers in the nation, and he was only able to get me cost from another dealer (10k over, plus 10k for himself) [which is actually reasonable to me, especially if you're open about it up front]

I'm trying to find one at 5k over, 2008 would be fine. Let's take this discussion either to PMs, or the Jonsey's quest thread in the NW forum, to not spam this topic. :)

Got my plate yesterday SC GT500

Have submitted choices to Pa. 4 times now. They require up to 3 at a time. So I'm up to #'s 10,11 and 12. This time I have a winner. Pa cashed my check 2 weeks ago. On the rejections,which come back in 4-5 days, they return your check too. So something's coming. :D

nice, congrats, I ended up with just plain old SHELBY, got luck I am guessing I have the only Shelby in the county.

nice, congrats, I ended up with just plain old SHELBY, got luck I am guessing I have the only Shelby in the county.

That's one I wanted but it was taken. My rejections are 2FAST 4U,
FASTR NU, 07 COBRA, DREAM ON, ZIPN BYU, MADE4 ME, SHELBY, 07 COBRA, MYDREAM, hard to believe they're all in use. Oh well. My last 3 are REBRN 67, PRICE LS, CLASSIC. So I guess I'll see any day. Could be today. When I got my plate for the Lightning, LGHTNG, it came in about 10 days after thye check was cashed. Gotta light a fire under those jailhouse presses...........Hoping for REBRN 67.............:(

It finally came. Ended up with VENM 500. Not waht I'd hoped for. Oh well, gonna keep trying. only $20.00 to change................:(

Where's the California dust cover? :D Just tried mine out for size today.

Who are you ordering the cover from and how much was it?
________
buy easy vape (http://vaporizers.net/easy-vape)

Who are you ordering the cover from and how much was it?

California Car covers. You can google it or do a search in the forum. Great cover. I orderd the dust cover. Nice and lite, Cobra Logo and Shelby GT500 lettering. These are sewn on not screened. Have ordered several covers from them, a quality outfit. O7's was on material hold for some time though.:D

It is a very nice cover.It did take awhile to get but it was lost in the paper shuffle.I think it was a deviation from the norm.No complaints.

Mine just came in....
On an old car I had BLONBYU (Blowin By You) and I kept the plates.
When I went to get new plates for them I was told it was Not Politically correct to have that plate.....Huh??

So I ordered it in reverse

UYBNOLB.............Works for me

California Car Cover has a custom fit cover just for our cars. Like 07 said you can get the logo and about anything you want sewn on for letters. I got the Noah material for mine.

Back to the topic at hand, I have in my possession '08GT500' Alberta plates (ordered and paid for in October 2006) waiting for my car which should arrive in mid 2008.

picked up my plates yesterday DCGT500 looks mighty fine on the car!!!!!

Got mine!

trying to post pic.

Just got my California plate :) O SHLBY7. Its kind of hard to a plate that has the full SHELBY on it. I do have 8SHELBY on my 68 GT500 Shelby
Kickstand

Looks like Pa. has "67 REBRN" available. After rejecting REBRN 67.

They cashed my check on the application. 7th time is a charm. Now VENM 500 plate, rec'd 2 weeks ago, will never hit the roads in Pa.

I love a happy ending!!!!!!!!!!!:D

My father-in-law got his second choice for a plate. 07VENOM

He wanted 07COBRA, but it was already taken.

I ordered my CA vanity plates today...R8R EV8R RADAR EVADAR

I finally got around to putting this on my car...they been collecting dust in my garage for months...seems like forever ago since I started this thread. :cool:

I went through about every combination I could come up with before I found one that wasn't taken...07 SHLB.

In Nebraska, 07SHELBY is still available, I'm going to try to get it.

I'd jump on it. You know it won't be available long, unless not too many will be sold in Nebraska.

I agree.

Anything with the word SHELBY is very difficult to get, so I wouldn't waste any time securing that plate.

Wishing you success!

I got mine a week ago in Missouri 7SHLBY!!!!

My Boys.......:)

limpopo,

Very nice!

Oh Yah! The plates are awesome too.

Happy Cruisin'!

Just saw my first Shelby on the way to work this morning (Houston).....Vanity Plate: "NO BO TY"

Just saw my first Shelby on the way to work this morning (Houston).....Vanity Plate: "NO BO TY"

Very cool. I saw my first one on the road a couple week back. Tungsten w/Silver stripes. Blew by me at about 75 mph (in a 55 mph zone). No personalized plates though.

The fastest color combo.:D

stripes just slow you down

Yup. It's all the added weight.

Yup. It's all the added weight.

Now now boys, the last time I checked the vert is heavier than the coupe, 120lbs. to be exact (with stipes).:rolleyes: With less HP for that matter as well. At least that what was indicated before release. Can't afford the twist in the frame.:p

That plate belongs to someone here.I remember the post.

It was Vista Blue w/ silver stripes....my favorite color combo. He was heading south on I-45 right at downtown (5:50 am). They look so much better in person...

07 SHELBY/67Stang,

NO BO TY belongs to jcthorne, he posted his vanity plate on page 2 of this thread. :D :D :D

Arbour88,You certainly know whats been posted before.Thanks for informing me of a question on a different thread.I appreciate when members respond to a question. GGBIW:)

Old thread, but I just got mine, so I thought I would share. SN4KE. I went to UCF, so I got the UCF tag, mainly because it has black letters (has to go with the car).

I actually got SHLBY....was surprised it wasn't taken.

I have had so many plates on my cars......lol.
On my 95 Eclipse GSX: H8URV8 (hate your V8) I know....it was not stock and very fast. Had it since 02 and sold it a couple months ago.

On my 08 blown GO GT/CS: TRY2WIN (i traded this car for my new baby)

On my hubby's 07 blown Silver GT: TRYMYGT ( he runs 11's)

On my 08 GT500: F8L 500 (Fatal 500 ) It's not stock anymore ;)

I just got mine in: 1QIK SNK

Not sure if I posted on here so here is mine

http://www.houses2view.com/mrfarmdogs07gt500/gt500kb.jpg

SN8KBIT not sure if already takin in OK.

I'll be ordering Baricad in a week or two. Once I get my full plate and not just my temp.

And i'll be ordering it again when I move to Phoenix.

This is the plates I had on my 08 vert. Had them since 1972. Now have
SNAKE, and this plate is on my winter car. Kickstand, I just saw your
note about suggestions for 68GT350. If you are still looking, have a
suggestion. I think you can have 8 #'s in CA right? If so how about
68GTCCCL? This will show how many are up on their roman numerals.
CCCL, is 350 in latin. I was going to get RAREGTD. D is 500 in latin,
but was able to get snake instead. To another old message about prices
if your talking GT500's, don't forget the $1200 gas guzzler tax, which
you probably won't get rid of, as it's federal.

Just picked up my 2009 gt500 day after thanksgiving, my plate is 09SHELBY.

Sometime ago, I believe it was in this listing, that someone started arguement
about getting a 500 for around $35,000. Just had my window sticker out, new
one from Ford, while responding to a question from rattles in another thread,
and my msrp on my 08 vert was $47,155. total was $53,210. This included
$1650 for redstripe package, and $1,300 gas guzzler tax. I find this interesting
as, on hiway I can pull better mileage than my 07 GT auto. Dealer had it
marked up another $10K. I got 8K knocked off. They would have sold me a
hdtp for sticker. If they knew how rare the redstripes were, they might not
have knocked it off. Anyway good luck on getting a hdtp for 35K or a vert
for 40K.

Got my Vanity plates in today...

MR FACE

well because my friends call me ph*kface, for obvious reasons...

Nascar plates Tony Stewart of course "ZIPBYU":)

Well, it's official, I'm an idiot! I thought this was a good idea but realized the meaning after ordering the plate. SN8KBIT: sounds ok, but it means: to bring misfortune or being unlucky, or just down and out. I guess I can see it as reverse psychology, or the car that just tried to take me at the light was "unlucky". What's your opinion?

I wondering where Milez is and his Snack Attack vanity plates.

I-GT500 for me nice and simple, it was pure luck this was available as I tried a bunch before finding this on web site

Just looking thru some old listings here, (bored, had to put vert in storage for
winter), and noticed that in PA they had to send in 4 choices, and wait for
response??? I thought we were backward in ME. Here you just go on line, fill
out a plate with choice, and immediately tells:shrug03: u if availabe, and can order
it on line. Sure u can't do this in PA also???

:zlurking: Still bored, so thought I'd see if I could come up with some ideas for anyone who's looking, so here we go
-----GTD 1BADGTD (D=500) 1BADSNKE SNKESKIN RATTLER SLITHER
SIDEWNDR SDEWINDR FANGS FANGED FANGED1 SNKEBITN ILLBITEU
CNSTRCTR PYTHON VENUMUS1 IMSNAKEY PITVIPER BLKMAMBA (only if
cars black) SLITHRNG ANACONDA ILLFANGU OFANGIT. If you can't have
8 letters (like my state) make some adjustments. KNGKOBRA KNGCOBRA
SDEWNDR POISON4U 2PSNUS4U EATDUST 2MCHHP4U (to much horsepower for you) DNTTRYIT. Hope you can find something. If I think of
some more, I'll be back. (as for Auh-nuld, TRMN8ER TERMN8ER TRMN8ED
TRMEN8ED TERMN8ED I-TRMN8U) I had DE-JAVU which I had since the
day they went on sale in my state (36 years ago) changed to SNAKE, (talk
about lucky), and trasnfered DEJA-VU to my winter car, so I would'nt lose it.

Here's mine... Probably a repost...

I wondering where Milez is and his Snack Attack vanity plates.

you rang....

Will post mine with MGW's frame as soon as I am able to place my order.

Do you have a pic of that MGW frame or link?

I couldn't find a "Shelby or GT500" frame on there site.

you won't find anything there that says either...trademark issue, and they would need CS's permission to do so. Only the tiffany snake or the new snake.
It's been "coming Soon" since 06. Call them. Their not very good about updating their site, but products are awesome. I have a few.

Figure I would post mine, nothing really Shelby specific considering thay have been on a
97 Cobra
99 Cobra
01 WS6
02 Escort ZX2 (don't ask!)
06 Mustang GT
08 Shelby GT500

It says
"Z20 WUT" you know, pickin' on Z28's, kinda showing its age, but since I change cars rather often its how people know me., and anyway tha slowmaro is coming back!

Here's the old plate2498 Now the new one is Blue with White letters and Numbers.

Just reserved and ordered mine today, from here in TX...

[TIKT B8]

Cbrvnm=cobra Venom

Have my old plate from my 02 GT

"DOMINATE"

Should I keep it, or try for some sort of Shelby GT500 thang (hard out here in CA)...?????????

my new one: SN8KBIT

I was thrilled to find this plate still available in Ohio and am surprised that something this simple hadn't been listed yet in this extremely long (and old) post.

"FAST 500"

If this would have been taken I would have grabbed "500 PLUS" which was also still available as of last August.

Maybe these are just stupid plates that no one else wanted but I like them.

Got mine 7 months before the car got here!

no other than OSHELBYO !:rofl:

Daddy I like Dominate, it fits the car for sure.

If I were to get a real GT500 the plate would say "GT500" or "Ess Vee Tee" - (SVT)

Well, I have two choices for plates, so I ordered both till I figure out which one to use. Any suggestions?
1GT500S
SNAKE 09

Have my old plate from my 02 GT

"DOMINATE"

Should I keep it, or try for some sort of Shelby GT500 thang (hard out here in CA)...?????????

Since you're upgrading to a GT500, then you should probably go with 'DOMIN8R'.

SNAKE 08 for the 2008

LTD SN8KE for the 2007 40th

I have to wait a year for the 2007 plate!!!

I Don't Have A Vanity Plate On My 09 Gt500. Now About Buying One And Not Driving It? No Way. The Value Is Going To Go Up On The Car. Look At The 1969/70 Models. Hard To Touch A 5k Car For 100k Today. And If Ford Were To Stop Making The Shelby Again The Car Is Gonna Shoot Up In Value. Ford Blunders,,,the Edsel,,,,the 1959 Butt Ugly Ford,,,,and Stopping Production Of The Shelby In 1970. Drive That Ride And Enjoy It.

"IMPULS" my wife and I are both impulse buyers, but i've wanted a shelby for 43 years just after I saw my first GT350H. Could not get the E on the end.

They may be hard to read, but MANN U, for the number one real football team in the world.

mine are on order

I was lucky and got Shelby as my plate in the state of Kentucky.

I've had the same Kentucky tag for almost 15 years. "FLYBYU". Had it first on a '92 LX 5.0, 5 speed--since then it's been on a Sebring convertible, Ranger pick up and most recently a PT Cruiser. Looks better on the GT 500 than it ever has....and curiously enough, attracts more attention there too!

Wow! Just realized that I haven't included a picture yet:

I can't decide between the following:

As you can see from my Avatar, my vanity plate is MANN U, the number 1 football team in the world. Of course, by football, I mean the "beautiful" game. OK, if we were to debate it, the number 1 "other" football team would be the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Colorado recently approved our plate application after sending them a 5 x 7 picture of the rear end of our GT500KR showing the cobra snake icon on the faux gas cap.

B17,
I have owned a house on the west end for 17 years and the B17 used to fly over our house so low it would make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. It was one of the most exciting and stirring things anyone can imagine. Was that you? If it was, thank you. I have seen a white GT 500 on the island a couple of times. Was that your car? I am still waiting on a rail car assignment for my red one. ETA 11/6 then 11/7 then 11/14 then who knows.

We are now in Jamaica Beach on the bay side and would really appreciate being buzzed by the B17 sometime.

Small world, we lived in Texas City while I was growing up and used to see those guys practicing all the way over there. Straight back of our house was Moses Lake and then Galveston bay. We live in New Braunfels now.We're coming down there to take a cruise in March, We should all meet....

A vanity plate is a special type of vehicle registration plate on an automobile or other vehicle. The owner of the vehicle will have paid extra money to have his or her own choice of numbers or letters, usually forming a recognisable phrase, slogan, or initialism on their plate.

Here's a shot of mine that were transfered from a previous vehicle of mine.

In around June after all the 2010 shelby's are built and the numbers get put in the computer at ford performance,,call them at 18003673788. Give them your VIN and a credit card for $45.00 and they will send you a certificate with all that info about your car. Also, if you do not have it, for another $10.00 they will send you a window sticker. Good luck with your new beast.:)

Sorry Stig,,,thought I told you about the cert,,,anyways you might want to go look at www.mgwltd.com....They have a really nice piece that replaces that ugly plastic power cap cover on the dash. plugs right in,,,has a cobra on it,,,chrome or aluminum,,,all these choices,,oh my,what do we do? They have a red eject button too,,but its kinda trashy:) How many people live in Krum now?

Thanks - added to calendar!

I called and the guy told me that the 2010 certificates should be available sometime in April. You can also go to http://www.fordshowparts.com and order your certs online (plus some other custom type stuff)....thanks for the help!!

April,,,,well that kinda says that the production of 2010's was less than the 2009's. Let us know when you get your numbers please. Oh and if anyone who has ordered a 2011,can you please tell me if the 10th character in the VIN is a "B",,,thank you.:)

About 2 years ago it was 4,300. The sign still says 1,700, so you can see how much its grown.

We still don't have a traffic light, so I'm happy.

Arizona has a 7 space limit. I like to assign mine 6 or less as I like balance. Wife was upset as they would call her Wild Thing. I explained to her the vanity reflects the vehicle not the person driving it.

I have an NC plate the reads LIVNADRM. Had it on a Corvette, I'm planning on moveing it to the Shelby. I was at a show in Savannah a couple years back and some dude came over and said "Live in a Dorm, whats that mean"

Just tell him, "That means you're retarded."

We have 2 rivers that pass through town so mine says rvrsnk
