- This looks like my old Shelby that I sold in 2004. Can you tell me if it is #2572? [Editor: sorry, I didn't meet the owner to get any more info other than what was on the sign, assembled May 16th 1969, ordered in Competition Orange with 4V V8 Ram Air engine, air conditioning, automatic transmission, sport slats, etc.]

- Thanks for the response, is there any way to get in touch with the owner? I am almost positive this was my car and I have some additional information I am sure the current owner would like to have. [Editor: I will be going to the Tampa car show this fall, I'll let the owner know]

- Were you able to attend the Tampa show this fall and sync up with the owner? [Editor: sorry, I didn't end up going to Florida this month, so I missed the Tampa Mustang Roundup car show]/li>
