Gaoler1973 ◊ 2011-09-11 00:20	So do we have enough agreement that this should be moved to the Shelby as manufacturer and make as Lancer section? Looks like it has the Shelby fog lights to me.
Gaoler1973 ◊ 2011-09-12 05:09	Excellent point on the vented hood Mopar Nutz! I hadn't thought of that. I am %100 convinced this is a #'d car now! Thanks IMDCB for having moved this. I hope I can track down this episode and watch it, that's one of my favourite cars!
