I understand completely. I have had thoughts of liquidating some cars to pick up another GT 500 somewhere in the future. I have lost some interest in SSP cars and highly doubt I ever make an effort to restore them all. I would really like to find a silver with black stripes 2010 or 2011 GT 500. With the 2013 cars having 650 hp people are starting to put some cars up for sale, many with under 5k miles so they are still like new.

Good luck with your decision and pending sale.

Gregg I have been messing with them since 1996. 16 years is a long time and I have come to the conclusion I will never be able to finish them all, given the other hobbies and interests I have. I will probably end up with 3 or 4 four eyed cars and 3 aero cars. Still plenty of SSP to go around for me. I have a few plans in the works but I am not in any big hurry to do anything. Deciding which ones go and which ones stay is going to be hard, but a silver and black GT500 is eventually going to end up in the stable, what year, and when it happens is completely up in the air right now. I have several other obligations that need to be taken care of first.

I just got a new front bumper so I can paint mine and start putting it together. I'd eventually like to have a 4-eyed ssp.

this car... only 130 built for 2010. Rarest color of them all. I guess that means it was the least desired color?? I like it though.

I can't imagine it being the least desired color combo. Silver and black is one great color combo! Could it be that Shelby intentionally kept the numbers in that color combo down so it would be more rare/desirable?

Sorry about the diversion....now back to the 1982 CHP SSP.

I also like that one. However, it is important to preserve and restore historical vehicles... just ask me, I'll tell you!

So now that I've gotten a SSP, gone to get the mechanicals done on my car, brakes, and exhaust and just visited the body shop, why are you guys all jumping ship????

Was it something I said??
