This weeks Autoweek has a article with Shelby offering a vintage Shelby Cobra item*with CSX serial number and autograph for $7,500.00.

I always wonder then I see Shelby sell these items at or near the lprice he sold his ORIGINAL cobras.

*A John Bolin guitar.

*This is a John Bolin guitar.

I understand that is one of the fastest guitars ever built. I'm waiting for the 427 Comp Guitar, before it gets changed over to an S/C.

Uh...does this guitar have the big strings or the small strings?

It only comes with big strings. Shelby is also planning on suing the new replica guitar makers. He is not going to make the same mistake again. No clones and replicas. Only the real Shelby guitars will carry the CSX number. Buyers beware.

Oh yeah??? Just wait 'til Shelby finds out it's faster with the small strings and starts offering a "small string" model. Then the big-string guys will start whining about how it's not a "real" Shelby without the "BIG STRINGS"

Any truth to the rumor that Shelby is buying the bodies from a guy who has them manufactured in Poland?
