George, the small-block cars used a different red than the later versions, and the shot of 2096 suggests it still wears the typical cherry-red Cobra color used on these examples. Rangoon is a lighter red, with some orange in it, and the shot above doesn't look like Rangoon to me.

I thought that both cars were the same color, but if Ned says that the 289's weren't Rangoon Red, then they weren't. Ned is the expert.
I think that I am going color blind! Lol

George, 3020 is my all time favorite, and the BEST looking Comp car out there. Period.

George: Isn't 3020 a dry sump car? Very rare.

Mike: What's the current cost of a CF Shelby? Delivery times?
Very nice car. Classic combo!

Evan,
Shelby isn't offering CF anymore. Those were done by HST. IIRC, they were priced between glass and ally.
I've seen 2 up close, including a drive in one. Also doubleugly's Exact.
Big fan of CF.
