I also have my original Magnum 500's with Repo Goodyear Blue Streaks (They now cost $630 each)

I have a set of the Kelsey Goodyear "Polyglas" radials. They look nice and only rub at full lock on the inside of the frame rail. Car has stock location for control arms. The ride and handling is really nice, but I'm not an aggressive driver. They are a size or two over what should be on the car, but they fill the wheel well very nice

A big Thank You to Chad
Ill put my order in now
To quote the locals "How do I git it" ?

Hertz had a promo in 1963 with white Corvette coupes with Red interiors with ski racks and snow tires

Are the repo magnums exact replicas of the originals?
I might be interested in the wheels as I already have a set of the Blue Steaks
 

The "restored" car pictures are of my car 6S1431

Glad to see the forum used for a great purpose.
Thanks to Coralsnake
if you can, please share. This could happen to any of us

The reason the Shelby mystique continues to exist is because of dedicated people like Coral Snake. People like him are why we know so much about the cars and the truth behind their designs, development, manufacturing and sales. I consider a great privilege to have access to what they do.
Thanks to those who share

I saw where someone was looking for unrestored cars for SAAC 50, anyone interested in a setting up a group of car that have been owned for 50 years or more?

Just received the 2024 Annual and I see a small issue, and it is missing pages 164, 165, 166

Made a laminated copy. The local police didn't think it was funny. I make bail in 30 days

At Hershey Fall Meet a few years ago I was going for my AACA Junior Award and a question about the size and placement of the outside mirror. There was much discussion and they asked if I had any documentation. I looked overt and saw Chuck Cantwell a few cars away. He is an AACA Judge and I asked him to come over to verify the mirror. He comes and over  says, "Yep, that's it"  Got my Junior Award. Nothing like having the original guy verify something.
The score sheets and detail they now go into is nothing short of amazing. The Devil is in the details and Satan himself couldn't make them perfect .

Shouods like a winner

It was great display of cars, seeing them run around the parking lot was a special treat
Both SAAC and Team Shelby gave great presentations
It was an easy 300 miles drive up and in back in 6S1431

I'm thinking the same thing. Always wanted to go to this one
Are driving up that morning or coming up the night before?
