Local Ford dealer (Gaudin) has teamed with our own Shelby American to donate the 1st production Shelby GTE for charity auction Saturday at Barrett-Jackson.

It has a load of custom features, just a couple of which include charcoal carbon fiber striping and a Kenne Bell supercharger color-matched to the Platinum White paint. The whole list can be found here http://www.barrett-jackson.com/Events/Event/Details/2017-SHELBY-GTE-FASTBACK-199332

Dang, I should've gone their car show a week ago- zoned the invitation...

Yep, it is :D. I would've loved to see it lapping out at Spring Mountain Motorsports- I think the photoshoot was done there.

I don't think there is an S550 club as such here. There is Vegas Valley Mustangs Club, formal application required. Nice selection of cars, from classics to new. Lots of S197s, 550s would be welcome I'm sure. Think they are part of MCA. There are 3 others, I think one is based more on classics and you have to know someone to get in, meet at Mustang Sally's. Another is Mustang Club of Las Vegas, don't know much about them, and Nevada Fox Bodies Mustang Club.

Well, congratulations! Welcome to the club, as they say ;) :D S550s look good in white, sounds like you have some fun plans for it.

BTW, the Shelby sold for $150,000 :eyebulge:. Ah well, a good cause.

Awesome vehicle, but I wouldn't piss on Gaudin if it was on fire. Horrendous experiences there.

:D We all have had dealer experiences and it only takes one bad situation unresolved to mess it up. Gaudin has been ok with me. :)

Mine was with Friendly back in the 80s with my first brand new car-an 84 EXP Turbo. Look that one up in arcane cars! It was bad enough that I bought my next 4 cars from Pat Clark Pontiac... But that's a whole other story...

And yes, that Shelby is one sweet car... pic of it on the block https://www.facebook.com/barrettjac...42666707343/10153877181072344/?type=3&theater

Can't wait to catch a glimpse of it on the 21st. One bad thing is that is an automatic, no fun there.
