I don't mean to sound like a "naysayer" but I guess I'll believe it when I see it...
:
: Once more, I beg to differ. There is NO question that there was a Shelby Maverick
: constructed by the Ford plant in Mexico. The SAAC (reluctantly) adknowledge the
: car, and there is plenty of paper ephemera to support the
: existence of the car. It wasn't sold Stateside because of emissions and
: licensing problems.

: The Shelby club says that 303 of the cars were built. Chuck Stalnaker
: has spoken with the former Ford plant manager who confirms
: the existence of the car. Don't be seduced by the naysayers who
: don't know what they are talking about on this very rare car.

: I am still looking for an authentic, documented car. It would be SWEET to
: restore an authentic Shelby Maverick and take it to a SAAC meeting
: and watch those retentive dudes goes nuts.

: : There was a website on Shelby of Mexico and it did talk about the Maverick. Unfortunately,the site no longer exists.

: :
: : : I've never heard of a Shelby Maverick and seriously doubt they were ever made. Don't you think Ford would have told us if they made such a car? Why would Carol Shelby waste his time building a car that would never be produced or sold in USA?...

: : : : Hello Maverick Fans:
: : : :
: : : : I am trying to find out some authoritative information on the very rare Shelby Mavericks produced in the Mexico plant.

: : : : SAAC has some information in their new Shelby directory, but it is pretty limited.

: : : : My goal is to purchase an original car (that can be exhaustively DOCUMENTED), or build an authentic clone.

: : : : Does anyone know anything authoritative?

: : : : Let me know . . .
