Shelby and Quantum Open up Special Mod Shop
Shelby Automotives continued their expansion by agreeing to work with Quantum Performance to set up what will be their third modification shop. The planned shop will be located in Texas and will be a joint project for the two companies. The Southwest Shelby Mod Shop will be located in Farmer’s Branch, TX, which is a suburb of Dallas.
"Carroll took a bunch of hot rodders and welded them into a ferocious team in 1965, so we're doing the same thing in select areas of the country," said Amy Boylan, president of Shelby Automobiles. "By teaming with the pros at Quantum Performance, we'll bring more ' Shelby magic' to enthusiasts in Shelby's home area. This is a significant milestone that demonstrates our commitment to revving up the delivery of packages like the Super Snake GT500 and authentic Shelby performance parts."
"As passionate enthusiasts who love to make cars faster, we're thrilled to work with Carroll Shelby and the Shelby Automobiles team," stated Quantum Performance President Jim Mango. "Based on our experience building and racing fast cars, we know we can help satisfy the growing hunger for genuine Shelby performance in the area that bred one of the greatest automotive legends of our time."
The Southwest Shelby Mod Shop will take part in the creation of the Shelby GT500 Super Snake Mustangs which will be produced in a limited edition in 2008. They will also be producing other Shelby modifications and will offer the public special Shelby t-shirts and other accessories.
"Enthusiasts have asked us to give them a way to enhance the performance of their current generation Ford Mustang or Shelby right in their own area ," stated Ms. Boylan. "Now, Shelby enthusiasts in the Southwest can turn up the wick on their cars with Shelby programs at Quantum instead of sending them all the way to Nevada for the 'Shelby treatment.' The Southwest Shelby Mod Shop will have Shelby trained production specialists who know Mustangs inside and out, and are also experts in Shelby Performance Parts and packages."
The team at Quantum will be undergoing significant training so that the shop will be able to outfit all the cars modified there with a special badge that states that they are part of the Shelby team. Factory experts from Shelby will be overseeing the process of modification to make sure that it matches Shelby’s expectations.
Four other Shelby mod shops are expected to be opened throughout the country in 2008 in response to the increased demand for these special vehicles. The shops will specialize not only in Mustangs but also other limited edition Shelby vehicles like the Shelby CS6, CS8, and Shelby GT500 40th anniversary packages. This represents a new period of growth for Shelby and should continue over the coming years as these vehicles become more popular and more valuable. Shelby modified Mustangs remain some of the most collectible cars in America and their values are expected to increase.
