The problem that folks have is most channels restoring cars do it fast just to get material out for clicks. This is a very low production car that potentially is worth a lot in the end. Having it done as close to concourse as possible is going to take much longer. The fibroglass parts increase the man hours tremendously especially to get a good fit and finish.

I have been a full time auto writer, not part time for decades. You can read thousands of my articles online.This series is for serious restorer types. So, Jason found and built a date-coded correct 428 Police Interceptor.

Because we don't think "perfect" body lines look phony. We do think body lines that are clearly not "perfect" do look like mistakes by the restorer.

Perfect body lines just dont look right on a car that never had perfect body lines.

I don't think Shelby-American set out to have imperfect body lines. Do you? What if some of them had perfect lines and some didn't because their work was hit and miss? We chose to "err" on the side of perfect.

Because we don't think "perfect" body lines look phony. We do think body lines that are clearly not "perfect" do look like mistakes by the restorer. Many cars from the 1960s have great looking body lines. In the Shelby, we are referring to the fiberglass, like the lines on the fastback extending into the decklid.
