    Hi Folks

    I would like to know all the VINs of the R Models wich were made.
    And what is very importand also the VINs of those wich do not
    exist anymore bacause of wreck or what so ever.
    And maybe a few pictures of back then when they were raced.
    These pictures seem to be very rare. Would be cool if you could help
    me on this!

    By the way is Rick Kopec a member here??

    Thanks! :guitar:

    Bye Jerry

    You can get the Shelby Vin out of the current registry. SAAC will NOT tell you the Ford vin. This keeps the forgeries down. Also, the history of each 65 R model is also in the registry. The current registry is 9 year old, and a new one should be out in a year or so.

    Correct me if I am wrong, but vol one of the new Registry that is due in about a year will not include the "R" models. According to the last SAAC news letter; Work on the Shelby Mustang registry ( vol 2) will begin when volume one goes in the mail. Possibly the end of this year.

    Hi Guys

    Ok but i don`t have the Registry. This book costs a fortune.
    I did not want to know the ford vin i was interested in
    the Shelby Vin.
    What should i do now? Where did you guys buy the
    book and what did it cost??

    If you need specific R model information, I would contact Rick Kopec at www.saac.com there were only 36 produced!

    Len could be correct about the new registry. The Mustang based Shelbys will be in volume 2.
    I suppose someone could list the Vins here. I have a registry, and they would have to post that the information was gotten out of the SAAC registry.
