Honestly, I was told it's a model T, I wouldn't know the difference between the two. The bed and fenders aren't pictured, so the picture may be deceitful.

Thanks, and yes Tuxedo.
I used meguiars car soap, and then I hit it with the turtle wax speed wax black edition. The truck was buffed out on this side earlier that day using some compound and a buffer.

How do you suspend door handles in space?

I"m still trying to figure out how you painted a ModelT and it turned into two trucks!

Really great shine! Nice work! I have a shadow black RCSB you can "practice" on if you want to keep up with your mirror finishes.

cool pics! Thanks for posting! First time I saw a shelby that was lifted. I have seen a couple here (at dealership) but they all have been looking like they were slightly lowered versions.

Hah, thanks. Getting is clean is almost as fun as getting it dirty. Let me get yours dirty and of course i'd help you get it clean. First Shelby f150 I saw was in a dealer showroom, I remember it sitting around the same height as this one. Could've been lifted though, or my memory could be failing me.
