I think you replied to my post the other day about a dang kid in a v-6 Camaro with exhaust that revved up on me at a light. I was in the Shelby.

I can't remember now, but it was just basically the same as above, nothing more than that. I just laughed to myself and thought geez, if this kid only knew what I could do to his crappy sounding Camaro lol

Thank you Tony! The old beast is in excellent shape with just barely over 31k original miles... I also had it registered as a classic vehicle last year.

Thanks for posting. Some nice old & new ones in the show. Looks like a great show.

Yours is looking pretty sharp with that high gloss reflection. I did not realize yours has a red interior…. Very nice.

That black Cyclone GT is very unique, probably pretty rare. Don't think I've ever seen one like that in person, rarely in pics. What engine did it have, what year?

Thanks, that really means a lot to me... I recently upgraded my camera phone from the Blackberry KeyOne to Google Pixel 7, so perhaps that is the reason for the improved picture quality... Only thing I don't like about this new phone, it doesn't have a physical keypad for text messaging which I had been used to for decades lol. But yes, my car does have the red interior and very pleased the quality of the interior turned out much better with this new phone.

I also cannot recall from recent memory seeing a Cyclone GT in person like that one either... Unfortunately, I was not able to locate the owner to find out what year and what engine it had... Maybe if he/she shows up again down the road, I'll be able to find out.

I think your car would look fantastic with the SVT PP wheels like my 11 had. Problem is then you'd want bigger brakes front and rear to fill them out, lol. Always more money, never ends.

I agree about the "11" SVT PP wheels Lee, problem is they are difficult to find and expensive... They also were only available in 19" and 20" sizes... I much prefer my current 275/40/18" tire setup on my 18x9.5" SVT wheels that I purchased from a friend of mine several years ago who no longer needed them after his "08" GT500 was upgraded to the SuperSnake package... I would however love to own a set of 2010-11 SVT stock wheels like this.

It's just a small local cruise-in held every other week, but some very interesting cars do show up from time to time... I've also always admired your now previous "07" GT/CS and current "14" GHIG GT along with your Challenger R/T which was the main reason I posted the pic hoping you would indeed notice.

Thanks for thinking of me. You have a good memory. I would remember others cars too, but AFTER the event. Too late...

You very welcome! Just wish my memory was still just as good with everything else, like it still is with cars.

Finally got around to making it out to one of our weekly car meet events at Victory Family Church in Cranberry Township, PA... Pics were taken 2 days ago, this past Friday ... Three pics are my car individually with 2 displaying the Saleen Series VI supercharger...
