Nice looking car. Although with black it needs to be tinted. I wonder what the badge says.

Ryan,

It looks like a 1967 Shelby G.T. 500 badge.

Nice cars and yes that is one happening garage. But Brad, are you going to keep us in suspense, where did you get the photo's? It's obvious from the pic's on the wall the guy is a fan of all brands of vehicles.

That's one of the few '05 non-stock rim & tire setup i've seen that i really like. Those Hallibrands set that car off perfectly...

This past weekend, I had the opportunity to attend the SAAC event in Vegas. The event included an open track and a tour of Shelby's plant.

There were about 3 '05 V-6's on the track, they were driving like they were GT's, and numerous '65-'66 Shelby Cobras and newer modified Stangs.

During the plant tour, I noticed a white '05 that was way in the back and completely stripped down. I asked the guy giving the tour about it and he said they were working on it. He also mentioned that it was actually built in '03 and they have had it for some time.

I will post some pictures when I get home this evening. They aren't that great, but just to prove that Shelby's plant in Vegas has an '05 that they are working on.

Brad...I searched Ebay briefly trying to find that sale but haven't been successful...can you post a link??? I'm looking at doing the Hallibrand lookalikes on my 05 and I'd love to contact the guy and find out where he got them...I've seen similar from 3-4 different places now but wondering which ones he has.

Thanks!

the wheels look like the Team III wheels. From what I could tell off their
Web site, they don't have the backspacing required. I may be misinterpreting their numbers, tho.
