It's on its way to Pilot Knob, MO and the paint shop of Shelby, aka Flatout.

Shelby and her Dad came up to O'Fallon Saturday morning to trailer my car to her shop. In about 2 months time, my 72 faded Bahia Red 2.2 liter will take on a new appearance; a steel flared, Jaguar Racing Green GT clone.

I'll be posting pictures as often as I can to show the progress of the car, and there's a good chance Shelby will as well. Most of us have seen the superb paint jobs Shelby has done on Hot Rods, Show cars and bikes. Now we'll get to see a 914 getting a dose of her magic.

Gary,

I envy your proximity to Shelby. Her SEMA work has propelled her reputation and business.

BTW, no pics of her? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/confused24.gif)

The one and the same.

Shelby and her dad are two of the nicest people you'd ever want to meet.

Shelby, I forgot to give you the F/G rear valance for the car,
left it at my place when I brought the other parts to my son's condo. I'll bring it down in a couple of weeks.

Thanks again for offering to pick up the car.
