Thanks for the information. I recently acquired one of his restorations, 6S1336 (2016 Gold Award) and just wanted to talk to him about the car.  But I have been told he did not keep records so it could be that he would not remember much about the car anyway. It surely must have been a special experience to work with him during a restoration.
Thanks

There are images posted from SAAC 47 of  the two '67 Shelby's Jeff's shop did, Red and Dark Moss Green, and Jeff is in a couple of the shots.  Also a shot in the 2022 Fall The Shelby American that just came out.

Both cars won Gold - nice way to retire ;-)
