Shelby Conversion in UK! Muscle Car World Magazine


Imagehosting - PicTiger

I got a Call today from a nice gentlemen from the UK. He was Interested in some Mustang Parts. We chatted for awhile and I asked how he had heard of me. He said I got your Name out of a Magazine in the UK. Too Cool! Now if I can find a copy or two in the States to Save. TMS is always Expanding my World! Now if I could Just wipe the Silly Grin off my Face! Thanks Jeff, aka ukfiveo!

That's pretty cool! What's better is that you didn't even know about it!

Pretty good international publicity there.

KC, what's your opinion on the complete Shelby conversions? I know, I know, to each his own, but something bugs me about all the stuff I'm seeing about dealers offering the package for a GT. I can definately see a front fascia, spoiler, or rear bumper if you like them. Can't understand the appeal (other than fooling the general public) of adding everything including badges, though.

Yep, UKFIVE0's review appeared in a recent copy of American Car World (one of only 2 UK produced American car magazines).

I was lucky enough to meet and have a chat with UKFIVE0 at a recent American Car show in England. As I'm in the market for an '05 Mustang, he was kind enough to let me sit in it and start her up.

This car is awesome and is exactly what I want mine to look like, given the choice. One of those pictures is also used as my wallpaper on the laptop I'm currently typing on


Here's a link to the magazine.......I'm sure you could get a copy sent to the States.
