The\u00a0Shelby Registry, VIN Plaque and Display Posters<\/span><\/h1>\n

If you are a newcomer to my Blog, the story behind my Shelby, “SoScary”, starts here<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Within days of getting the Shelby, I had discovered Mustang Clubs, Shelby Forums and found a lot of after-market upgrade dealers online such as American Muscle. As if I didn’t know it already I soon realized Mustangs and Shelbys in particular, were no ordinary cars. The whole scene was huge!<\/em> On the official Shelby American website, I discovered I could get SoScary officially registered so that was one of the first things I did.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Shelby<\/a>

Authenticity is everything. My Shelby Authenticity Certificate<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

I also ordered an in-dash plaque which looks great!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Shelby<\/a><\/p>\n

Here it is in the car..<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u00a0then located my official Build Sheet from the SVT Team at Ford and discovered that my car, in Black with Stripe Delete with its specific options (it has all of them with the exception of the glass roof), was one of only 297 built in that model year with that particular option selection so that was a pretty low number! Going to Car Shows I also quickly learned that presentation and attention to detail\u00a0was\u00a0all-important so I made this display poster:<\/span><\/p>\n

\"My<\/a>

My first Car Display Poster back in spring of 2013<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

In January of 2014, I ordered a custom display stand made to match the car. It conveniently folds into three sections and the poster is laminated. Looks awesome!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"SoScary<\/a>

My custom made display stand shows off the car really well!<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

Here is the first version of the poster. It has since been replaced to reflect the latest mods and performance enhancements done to the car.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Poster\"<\/a>

The poster has all sorts on interesting facts about the car – right down to which SVT engineers hand built the engine!<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

UPDATE – March 2016 – here is my new display placard showing all my new mods!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"My<\/a>

My new display poster for 2016<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n

The engine bay did not go untouched – I got this nice laser-etched steel plaque made to cover the fuse box.<\/span><\/p>\n
