The coupe is much better looking, which I think is par for the course with this era of Mustang. I think the vert is ok, but minus the stripes, that hood gets too much attention, and it's not the good kind...

Was Shelby at the intro at the Detroit auto show?

Was Shelby at the roll out of the convertible and coupe versions at the Detroit show? I haven't seen much publicity on his appearances lately.

Trivia question for those who can't get enough gossip: how many times was Shel married and to whom?

I count six:

1. Original wife, Jeanne
2. movie star (was heroine of 1950 film Ft. Bowie)
3.
4.
5. the late Lena Dahl
6.Present British wife

Somewhere there was a Miss Universe from Japan involved as well.

I'm keeping my order in for the coupe. I sure hope they offer it yellow w black stripes. My first mustang was a 1972 Mach1 351CJ 4 speed, yellow w black stripes...sure miss that car.
