    <font face='Comic Sans MS'>Been there, experienced that! Don't know if there is a reliable carpet manufacturer out there. The last carpet I put in the Hipo (Jan this year) came from Texas Mustangs, Waco. The fit was good, no voids nor thin spots. The color (black) however is another matter. It has a washed out faded appearence to it and additionally is dull. Basically it turned out to be a waste of time & money. Could-a/should-a kept what I had, but it was molded very, very poorly and where the front carpet crossed over the trans hump it did so in a seriously angled fashion. Got tired of looking at the ugly damn thing.</font id='Comic Sans MS'>

    <font face='Comic Sans MS'>For myself, the Shelby clone craze has completely shut me down towards assuming what I see is geenie, at least for the 65-68 yrs. There are just to many of them out there. I don't take cloning as a bad thing (although there is a darker side to it for those that are integrity challenged), just a reflection of the zillions that in the current market, simply can't afford a real Shelby. So we go for the next best thing.


    The integrity issue was graphically illustrated a few years back here in Austin TX when a GT350H purchased from the east coast was proven a fake. According to the account, it had been verified as real by SAAC prior to the sale. The car remains in the area and has been in our local Mustang Show a time or two. </font id='Comic Sans MS'>
