[CSX 4027]

The beginning run of 4000's in glass were the groundwork cars. Lets face it, the glass was laid by jailbirds. Frames were welded by life sentence recruits and it was pretty much fielded by the genius of Tom D' Antonio and less than a handfull of qualified others. With all the gliches and set backs, cars got done and traded on the secondary market for great numbers. Why? No matter what, it was a Shelby product. Lets face it, the English at A/C didn't have the corner on the market for fine automobiles with their inferior wiring and snap on tops that one would get drenched before figuring out how to place. Remember when Lucas made Vaccume Cleaners because, it was the only thing they made that didn't suck? Why do you think Kirkham went to Poland and the English still can't re-produce their original cars at a marketable price? Ford took a hold of Aston Martin in order to make a hand made ALUMINUM Super car for $150,000. Why is this primative aluminum shell that we all love about that from England and does not have half the technology?
The South Africa deal groundwork and routine has already been
somewhat de-bugged by Las Vegas. I believe it will prove to be just fine either from chassis #1 or shortly after that. Shelby American can certainly troubleshoot and G.C. the work.
My bet is on Shelby.
