Shelby Heaven










You never know what you might find when you deal with somebody on craigslist. We headed off to a small town in Connecticut called Wallingford. We brought our GPS in cased we got lost. It was a good thing, we never got lost but with out it we would have been asking a lot of people for help in the two hours it took to get to this small auto body place. We should have realized what might have been behind the doors from the name of the place Cobra Automotive. We walked in and were greeted a wonderfully nice gentlemen who said we would have to follow him through the shop to see the hood and fenders we were interested. The door opened up and Jon and myself almost couldn't contain ourselves. It was mustang owners heaven. There were shelbys everywhere, a beautiful 54 vette, an old Z28, a near mint original cobra and many more. We finally made it to where the hood and fenders were stored, they were exactly what we wanted and in great shape taken off a shelby that was being modified for racing. The genltemen gave us a deal if we took it all. We did and we saved a lot of money as well as got original ford parts, not repo's. The nice guy then let us go through the whole place allowing Jon to take pictures while giving details of all the cars. Wow we rode home on cloud nine what a trip.
