Lotsa talk here...
..looks like there is some action over on the Viper forum.
They contacted the producers of Overhaulin' to see if they wanted to do a spot on finishing the car... (neat idea)
"...I just sent this in to Overhaulin- maybe they will listen. A few follow ups from some other members might help as well. Contact them at:
info@overhaulin.com
Dear Overhaulin crew,
I know that I am not following the normal procedures for the show, but through the Viper Club of America I have become aware of a situation that could work out very well for your show. One of our well respected members has been trying to get a Shelby Cobra built for almost 2 years now, and he has run into some major roadblocks along the way. Unfortunately, he has been fighting cancer all during this drama, and has recently been given only 2-3 months to live. It has been his dream to have this Shelby, and it might take a miracle to actually get it built in time. That's where I am hoping you can come in...."
..and he appended the original e-mail.
..further, posted this afternoon:
"...We got a call from another Shelby Dealer who volunteered to finish the car if we can get all the parts and away from Roy Hunt at Finishline Motorsports (Shelby's Dealer in Vegas)I have made the appropriate inquires to see if this is possible.
Maybe we could take the car to the other dealer and shoot the "Over-Haulin" episode there??
Again thanks for all the support you have all shown!! "
