    The KR is over priced... So is the normal Shelby, at least I think. Give me a C6 Zo6. What does the KR stand for, did they make this for "new" Knight Rider.

    "KR" is a carry-over from 1968. Stands for "King of the Road".

    I wonder if it says in the contract about you not owning the sheet metal? If not, I would think there would be legallity issues going on.

    in other words, he spent the same amount on a FREAKN MUSTANG as the next guy would on a 2009 Corvette ZR1........agreed....

    His reasoning was nostalgic.... His dad (who died pretty recently) had a 67 GT500 back in the day, that they worked on and shit... He had to sell it to pay for shit, and so They always talked about getting the new one when it "Came out".... His dad died before they went on sale.... But Jerald bought one in '07... kinda in memory I guess.

    10k is what he had in the maro at the time. It was m6.


    Now its a forged 370, on 20psi, with a 3800 stalled TH400, and 2.73's.... He's goin after liter bikes and those silly 'busa's.


    The GTSS is 750 on 93 w/ inspection sticker.... Change the pulley (10 min job) and put 110 in it, make over 1000hp, and will run mid to low 10's.
