Hi Mickmate:

My first priorities on the car are: 1)fix the short/wiring cleanup, 2)thorough off the ground inspection/going over, 3) brake maintenance/replacement, 4) tires. we'll see where we go from here. Like I mentioned earlier, I expected some work but was hoping for a bit more sorting form the previous owner(s).

Should be interesting, but the car really is a blast. At first I didn't like the color, but looking over Shelby historic photos it is very close or identical to what I see on some CSX cars. Overall, the CCX is a great starting point for some sorting/upgrades. Hit a rabbit (or other small creature) at about 35mph last night on a country road and didn't skip a beat.

Thanks again.

Kirk
