It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

Lotta scams in the restoration business. I know a shop here that redid a Shelby for a quy who paid some "restoration shop" big bucks to do it originally. They found that the subframes had rusted out sections repaired by putting duct tape over them, then undercoating everything to cover it up. Also had rags stuffed in the quarter panels and thick bondo over that. Glad I don't have the financial means to have others do this kind of stuff for me.
Whenever I would see Unique Performance featured on some show something just didn't sit right with me. Not sure if it was the look of the Principles or what, but something seemed amiss. Wonder how Foose is taking this situation as he was in bed with them?

Shelby's licensing folks terminated their agreement with Unique Performance early last month. Foose's group is considering doing the same as we write (or may have and it's just not widely known).
