Any OFFICIAL word on shelby mustang?

I can't be specific but, when I was at SEMA I went to the Shelby facility. I talked to them about the chasis that looked like it was on their floor ;-) . We discussed the wish lists, wants and needs. We had a long discussion concerning IRS or SLA, I am thinking the IRS won. We had a discussion about the T56, a 6 speed is being seriously considered.
I can't wait to see it either, especially after seeing the Shelby Expedition that was at SEMA.
You are in LV, go up and take a tour of the plant. You might be surprised what you will see. If you need a contact name for the tour, let me know.

I wonder if this is why no hood manufacturer has stepped up to make a '67 style Shelby hood for these '05's ?? I think the dual air intakes on the front end of that hood would look great on the '05's..
Classic Design concepts has the scoops a-la '67...
68 Shelby hood would look better
Maybe the '68 hood is the one I'm thinking of. That (IMO) was the best hood ever put on a 'Stang. The only thing close was the '96-'98's or the 2000 R hoods.

A couple of friends also saw a S197 platform at the Shelby facility. They showed them the concept but wouldn't let them bring in a camera.
The bigger question.. Will the Shelby Mustang be announced before the Cobra?
Non-SVT dealers hope the Shelby comes first; SVT dealers hope for both.
The CDC hood has a scoop similar to the 67 but not quite it. The 68 scoop is the one that came way out to the front of the car. I prefer the 67 myself but that is from fond memories of the 67 GT500 I once had.
