I agree. It has SPF rollbar grommets. I doubt it's a FFR (wrong rollbar and rear end).

Dave, someone mentioned a couple of years ago that I should register with the VA for,
VH hospital benefits, filled out some forms and got an ID. I ask around after that because I've heard of sloppy treatment!. Found out they will send you to a major hospital for serious problems. One guy I know was transferred to Emory in Atlanta, great hospital.

I am just starting the process. Time will tell if it will be worth it. Good luck.

I take it the owner isn't part of the club. A woodworking friend sent me the pic. Says he took it in Scottsdale in Feb. His words were "427 baby!"

Second reply was "The guy was as a big as a house. It's my guess that he's a pro athlete. Who else could afford the ride?"
Could it be an original? I think not!

There is one just like that at Anthem after being hit by a truck. Rear right broken. I wonder??? Also Both John Panfil and don't forget Jim have black SPF.

That sure is pretty car. I really like the color and the appointments. Something about the roll bar looks strange though.. It's almost like it's too big for the car.

It's got a personalized historic plate. FTR5 = Factory 5

At least that's what it looks like to me. Ironic if it's a random plate and a SPF ended up with a plate that spells another brand.

Historic Plates in AZ are random.

Default Csx4910??



Could it maybe be CSX4910 from Scottsdale?
He is new, see: Shelby Conflict

Would that plate would be worth some bucks?

Not mine as I am still anxiously awaiting the motor from Roush. It will look similar though although i exchanged the bumpers for quick jacks.

Don't think so Bob

How many FFR's are running around with the little taillights. Not many. I don't think it is
an FFR.
If it was a Shelby product, most likely would have the shoulder harnes bracket on the rollbar.
