Hi all,
Just a plug for Dave.....He does great work.... I had him fabricate a custom
set of CSX decals for my Convertible CSX and they are awesome... Better
than factory stuff because they have not been sitting on a shelf drying
out... He also does 86,87 GLHS 87-89 CSX 87 Shelby Lancer decals and he has
some really cool floormatts to boot...
If anyone is interested in seeing some of his work I'll be at Norwalk with
the Csx Convertible this weekend...
Catch ya later,
Tim

> After a tremendous amount of work (and a few obstacles) I'm proud to
>announce that the 1989 Shelby Dakota stripe packages are finally in
>production. I've been working on them for quite a while trying to get
>everything perfect. It's the most elaborate & detailed repro stripe package
>I've ever taken on. Due to it's immense size & complexity my initial cost
>of producing it is about 5 times the usual.
> While working on the retail price for the package I researched the
>current list prices of what the 89 Shelby Dakota package would go for at
>the dealer. The downside is that is they do not have all the pieces
>available.
The largest piece, the bedside decal on the passenger side has been
NS1(unavailable) for over 4 years now. It's the "holy grail" of SD decals
and it's too complicated to have a regular decal shop cut one a single
replacement. Due to that, there's alot of naked Shelby Dakota's running
around.
> The total list price from the dealer for all pieces (except for the air
>cleaner) came out to 993.00. This would be IF the p/s bedside was still
>available and was priced the same as the driver side (125.00 each). If you
>figure in local sales tax (say 6% for example) that adds on 59.58 to
>totalup to 1052.58. OUCH!!!
> Now for the better news, the price of my repro package. In order to
>stimulate a solid amount of initial sales (and so I can cover my initial
>out of pocket investment) I'm going to provide non-procrastinating
>customers a healthy price break. Does 100.00 off sound healthy enough?
> For the first 60 days that they're available you save 100.00 off the
>regular price. The retail price for the complete package includes decals
>for the fenders, doors, hood, tailgate & air cleaner (all but the
>windshield decal) for 550.00. To reward those who buy it during the first
>60 days, it's only 450.00. My goal is to sell at least 20 sets during this
>sale period.
> The quality of flawless. I've improved the sizing on some pieces to
>make them install straighter (and easier). Unlike some of the factory
>pieces, it will be screen printed from a single sheet which means that all
>the colors will match perfectly. The set will also feature a special UV
>coating to protect it from sunlight and buffing. I'm also including a
>detailed installation guide with color placement photographs.
> This debut run of 100 sets is being printed now will be available in
>about 45 days. I'll have more specific production updates posted on the
>SDML soon. What I'd like to ask of the Shelby Dakota owners out there is
>that you contact me via e-mail at shelbydodge@mindspring.com or call me at
>904-388-4040 to help me set up a list of who's committed to purchase one of
>the first sets (and save 100.00).
> I'm working with Mike Weary of the "Shelby Dakota Registry" to spread
>the good news to as many owners as possible. In the upcoming week, I'm
>going to try to get in touch with as many owners as I can. If you haven't
>spoke to me recently (or changed your address) let me know so I can update
>my information.
