We built a '67 Shelby Convertible clone a few years ago. We used all Tony Branda parts which were supposed to be the "best" Shelby reproductions on the market. We had all kinds of fitment issues, the nose was the only thing that actually fit! The center of the hood had a huge bowl in the middle of it, the decklid to quarter panel fitment was the worst, I could fit my fingers between them. Come to find out another customer of ours had an all original '68 California Special, and the decklid fit the same way!! So it's not so much as the parts didn't fit, but the original parts that the reproductions were made off of didn't fit either!
