The Photographs
Seventeen frames of the car as it sits. The complete set is in the album linked in the panel to the right.
Worth Knowing
CSX7952 is finished in fiberglass, not aluminium, worth knowing before you compare it with a metal-bodied continuation car.
The 50th Anniversary FIA Limited Edition option was an additional $10,000 from Shelby on top of the base car, which is why so few of the fifty were specified this way.
