Owner: Mark S.
Stats: 1986 Shelby GLHS #088
Back in 86 I was with the previous owner when he picked up the car from the dealer. He let me drive it on the way home and liked right away. He drove it until approx 92 when he put it in his warehouse ( dirt floor ) Last summer I asked him if I could get it out and clean it up for him. I just could'nt stand to see the car buried under an inch of dust. When I got it out it seems mice had decided to build there home in it for the past years. Needless to say the car smelled poorly and there was not much 
insulation left. The tires were shot, the carpet was ruined, and the brakes were bad.
Well I got the car from him in Oct of 99 and since then I have had it painted, gone throught the engine, the interior has been replaced, rims polished, new tires and many other things I can't remember. I just could not sit by and let the car settle away into his floor. I would tell you how much it cost, but........ The car now sits in my garage with 47,000 miles on it...and gets driven on the weekends when I have time.
