Thumbs up Me too!

Hi guys. I know I'm late to the party but I want a car something like this as well.

I like the Kirkhams very much. About what would this car cost?

I'll be in Vegas next week and am thinking about having Shelby American make one.

Anyone have any idea what they will want? I haven't made contact there about this yet.

I just want to live my life the way I want to. Again I love the Kirkhams but may be able to afford the Shelby.

The biggest unresolved issue for me is the wheel wells and wheels/tires.

I want a different look than the FIA. I want a more attractive line there while getting as much rubber on the road as possible.

When I look at skinny tires on the very early cars and ACs, I just know I want more. That will be the best improvement and I don't want to go backwards to the extent that I don't get the car I want.

I want as much rubber as I can put under a slab side while retaining an elegant little english/american roadster look.
