Mike -

Reading every one of the posts on this would truly be a waste of time so I will attempt to do ask you asked....

A friend of Dwaynes (Hogdealer) appealed for assistance to some members of Club Cobra via email for help in getting his very sick friends CSX 4000 car done as, among other things, he was concerned that Dwayne might not live long enough to see his dream car completed.

The car was ordered 26 months ago from Roy Hunt at Finish Line in Las Vegas NV, a Shelby Dealer - Dwayne was lied to by them repeatedly regarding when it would be done.

Club Cobra members responded in a number of ways - some contacted Carroll Shelby and Brent Fenimore and got a commitment from them to put the screws to Roy Hunt at Finishline.

The car was finally promised on January 15th 2005 and was actually done on that date. Shelby Automobiles is dropping the car off at Dwaynes place of residence tomorrow.

I suspect that the only good that has come out of this whole saga is that perhaps it has opened some peoples eyes to the fact that they should not be blinded by promises and dreams...
