Just a couple more details
Remember when Shelby was going to make Continuation cars for $500,000 with the parts that were supposedly left over sitting in a warehouse and the public was shown a photo of him standing next to a pile of un-used original frames. He was going to make around 50 or so S/C's to complete the series? Remember all the photo's of original parts in the parts bins? How many of those cars in the CSX 3000 series did he make? 3 or so? Maybe 5?
Where do you think all those real deal parts went after that program was found to be.....well I won't say......but you know..
ALL OF THOSE PARTS AND SOME VERY RARE WENT INTO THE EARLY GLASS CARS UNTIL THEY WERE GONE. THE FIRST 3 CARS EVEN CAME WITH THE ORIGINAL LEVEROL SEAT TRACKS THAT COULDN'T BE HAD FOR $500+ NOW BUT OF COURSE ARE REPRODUCED WITHOUT THE CREST. THE CAR CAME STANDARD WITH THE ORIGINAL BRAKE SET-UP THAT IS NOW AN UPCHARGE OPTION.
To some this might be meaningless, to others it was just part of a good deal.
