Poor Shelby. How does that happen?

Good luck explaining that to your insurance company.

That doesn't look like a Shelby Front end or the badge on the fender ? but I'll bet both are the same owners !

It doesn't? What is it then? I'm talking about a Shelby GT, not a GT500.

Unhappy Thats Just Sad!!

Ouch!! Now thats just sad to see yet another messed up new Stang!! And with that roof now pushed in. Wondering if they will total it or try to rebuild, because it is a Shelby-GT? The burning question here is. Did the Shelby drive into the bird or did the bird run over the Shelby? CalStang

I just went to the site where he got that pic...it's www.stangwrecks.com. It will make you shudder if not cry when you see all the GT500's that were totaled.

Given that it looks like it rained I assume the owner was having some fun in the car and lost control and hit the plane.

I agree. Both the plane and the car would be in a lot worse shape if the plane actually rolled into the stang during a take-off or landing.

I've seen this picture posted here before, but can't seem to locate it now. If I remember correctly, the photo was either staged or photoshopped and posted around April Fool's day, but since I can't find the thread, your guess is as good as mine.

I showed this pic to a guy I know that is a pilot, and he laughed and said that strut laying on the hood cost more than the Shelby did, lol.

that accident really happened (sgt hit the plane), but the pic was staged after the fact. you can tell by the fact that the front of the plane is sitting on jack stands and the strut was clearly placed on the hood, as the initial impact surely sent it flying. from what I understand, the sgt owner was goofing around and lost control. I believe he had the car for a day or so.
