Xiao Peng and others entered the workshop, where there were all kinds of cars that were being modified or modified.
It turns out that this Raymond is a modified car?
Raymond led a few people to the back of the workshop, there was a car covered with a tarpaulin, and Raymond lifted the tarpaulin: "This is Irino".
Xiao Peng and the others saw the car inside, and said in unison: "I bought it!"
"Then you two stare at me and I stare at you.
"Hey!
I said I was going to buy it!
Yang Meng said angrily.
"Obviously I said it first!"
Xiao Peng retorted.
The two turned their heads together: "Pagio (Old Pa), who do you say said first?"
” Padgio also looked helpless: "That。。。。。。
That one......
You two said it together!
Right!
It's all about talking together!
” After listening to Padgio's answer, Xiao Peng and the others began to stare at each other again.
Raymond was also stupid: "Peggy, I really should go to Huaxia to have a look, this is too rich, right?"
Two people rushing to buy such an expensive car?
” Padgio also smiled wryly, he and Xiao Peng have known each other for a while, and they are usually not people who spend money indiscriminately, what's wrong?
Looking at Xiao Peng and the two again, they have already begun rock-paper-scissors to decide who will pay for this car.
After a few clicks, I saw Yang Meng's face annoyed, and Xiao Peng dancing happily.
Don't even ask, it's Xiao Peng who won.
Xiao Peng happily walked up to Raymond: "Raymond, is this 'Irinor' the 'Irinor' I thought?"
” Raymond nodded: "I swear by my last name, this is exactly the Irinor you think!"
” Xiao Peng was stunned: "Raymond, I don't know what your surname is?"
” Raymond said lightly: "My surname is Shelby. ” Xiao Peng's expression froze: "Shelby?
With all due respect, who is Carol Shelby to you?
” Raymond shrugged: "He's my father." ” Xiao Peng put away the smile on his face and said to Raymond very seriously: "Salute your father, or all car lovers should pay tribute to your father, he is an eternal legend." ” It's not that Xiao Peng wants to buy Raymond's car and put a top hat on Raymond, but Carol Shelby, who is indeed a great legend.
In 1961, this dude played a standard game of white wolf with empty gloves, and he wrote to the British AC, telling them: give me a body, and I can put a Ford engine on him; I wrote to Ford again: Give me an engine and I can install it in the body of the AC.
And then he really did it.
Four years later, the world's first In 65, he created a legend in the racing world for Ford------ and in 1966 Le Mans, the Ford GT40 directly won the top three!
Later, a series of modified designs of Ford Mustangs, almost all of them are boutiques!
Later, in 82, the old man went to Chrysler again, so the originator of hard-core muscle cars------ Dodge Viper was born again!
Let's just say that the three major sports car factions in the Stars and Stripes Nation: Corvette, Dodge Viper, and Ford Mustang, two of which were created by him, who dares to say that he is not a legend?
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the founder of the racing culture of the Stars and Stripes!
Xiao Peng asked: "Raymond, forgive me for taking the liberty, why did you live here and change the car?"
Doesn't it mean that the security here is not good?
” Raymond laughs: "I'm very safe here, because the customers here are the main customers who change their cars, and they want their cars to be better, so they can only come to me." ” Yang Meng was stunned for a moment when he listened: "Aren't those Manhattan tycoons more willing to spend money on modifying their sports cars?"
” Raymond looked at Yang Meng like an idiot: "Yang, don't watch too many movies in the future, you will become an idiot if you watch too much."
Why should the car be modified?
It must be that you are not satisfied with the performance of the car and want to improve it.
Those top-of-the-line sports cars are all systematically tuned to the best!
Otherwise, how could it be sold at such an expensive price?
Do you think that those professional sports car designers who receive millions of annual salaries are all dry meals?

There is no room for modification of those supercars and the like, and even if you change tires or something, it will affect their original performance.
What to modify?
A different speaker and a speaker?
” Xiao Peng watched Yang Meng being educated, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, in fact, he thought so just now.
Raymond smiled: "Don't think about the modified car too amazingly.
The toilet you put gold trim on him, it is still a toilet, no matter how the modified car is changed, it will not be comparable to the real supercar, even if you change it with him, the same tires, but has the car body been tested in the wind tunnel?
How is it possible to run in to the best condition?
Don't let those movies fool you, the cars that appear in the movies are directly related to how much money the investor invests. ” Yang Meng asked curiously, "How do you say this?"
” Raymond crossed his fingers and said, "Did you watch "Fast and Furious"?
When "Fast and Furious 1" was filmed, because there was no money, what kind of car did you use?
The second-generation Mitsubishi Eclipse, Mazda RX-7, the 69 Dodge Challenger 500, the fifth-generation Civic EG of the 92 model, Toyota Supra, etc., almost all of the Japanese performance cars, in the second-hand car market, with 100,000 US dollars, all the cars needed for this movie can be done.
Can these cars not be modified?
Civic EG?
16 displacement, driving three of these things to rob trucks?
It's gone with a light crash, okay?
But if you look at the Super 5, the investors have money, there are brand sponsorships, and what modified cars are there?
From the Dodge Challenger SRT8 dragging the safe, to the Lyken flying over the building, to the speed 7 speed 8, it is directly Bentley Continental GT, Corvette C2, Mercedes-Benz AGGT, Jaguar F-Type and XT, Lamborghini LP640 are all in battle, do these cars still need to be modified?
So remember, the cheaper the car, the more you will make when you modify it. ” Xiao Peng was dumbfounded when he heard this, and asked Pagio next to him in a low voice: "Is this Raymond really Carol Shelby's son?"
” Pagio nodded: "It's because of this personality that he has a lot of trouble with his family and changes the car here, but to be honest, I think of all Mr.
Shelby's children, Raymond is the one who is the most like him."
That's why the two of them are so stiff. ” Xiao Peng coughed dryly, interrupting Raymond, who couldn't stop dancing when he talked about the car: "That, I want to ask, how do you have Irinor?"
As far as I know, even your father didn't have a chance to touch Irino, did he?
” Raymond was stunned: "Do you know this?"
” Xiao Peng smiled: "I have made preparations for coming to the Stars and Stripes Country this time!"
” Raymond gently stroked the body of the 'Irinor': "It's a long story.
Aren't you afraid of wasting your time?
” Xiao Peng nodded: "Listen up!"
” "Then please come to my office first, let's talk slowly over coffee."
Raymond called several people into his office and told this long story: Which is the most classic Ford Mustang in history?
The vast majority of Mustang fans will agree with the 1967 GT500 Irino.
But this car has never been mass-produced at all, so how did it become a classic of the Ford Mustang?
This starts with the 1974 film "The Great Pursuit", which is not very famous, but a wild horse cart appears in it, named 'Irinor', and the name was created by the film's director Harwich.
And it also became the first car in history to win the title of star in a movie, and it is said that it is the only one so far: when the actor is introduced at the beginning of the film, there is a "leading ------ Irinor".
But at this time, Irinor was not famous until 2000, when the film was remade, starring Nicolas Cage and Angelina Jolie, and the name was changed to "Sixty Seconds of Speed", and the car began to really go down in history (both films have exactly the same English title, both are "gonesends", God knows how it was translated as "Rush to the Sky"), and in the 2000 version of the movie, Harwich licensed the name Irinor to Disney and rebooted it.
The name 'Irino', then modified by designer Steve Stamford on the basis of the 1967 GT500 Mustang, truly became a classic!
Interestingly, with the popularity of the movie, Carol Shelby also pondered wanting to develop her own 'Irinor', but at that time Harwich had passed away, and after Harrich's widow knew about it, as the heir to the copyright, she disagreed with the idea, and even took Shelby to court!
The lawsuit lasted until 2008, when Shelby lost the case.
Shelby died four years later, which became a long-standing regret for him.
So how did this 'Irinor' in front of you come about?
At that time, when the movie was shot in 2000, a total of 12 'Ilianor' were made, of which only three were fully functional cars, and the remaining nine were basically shells, and later during the filming, two of the fully functional prop cars were also crashed.
But after the filming of the film, both cars that were crashed were also resurrected.
Of those nine shells, four were damaged due to filming, and four were rebuilt into fully functional Irino, that is, there are only seven Irino in the world.
The whereabouts of the remaining car shell are unknown.
Now I finally know the whereabouts, it turned out to be in the hands of Raymond!
And let him convert it into a 'Shelby Irinor'.

You know, although there are only seven sets of this Irino, many Mustang fans like to use the old Mustang to reproduce Irino's appearance, the more similar the imitation, the higher the price, go to ebay to search for Irino, you can find all kinds of imitations, the price is above 100,000 US dollars!
For this price, you can buy a brand new Porsche Cayenne Turbo.
It's still a replica of only the surface and not the inside of the goods, if Raymond is really like his father, it must be performance first!
You have to make the car more domineering!
Carol Shelby's modified car, if not a top-of-the-line sports car, smashed his own signature!
Xiao Peng finally understood why Raymond dared to shout two million dollars!
It's not a car that's sold, it's feelings------ Shelby's signature is enough for this price!
But Raymond Shelby isn't Carol Shelby after all, isn't he?
Xiao Peng thought for a while: "Raymond, can I go in and have a look?"
” Raymond got up: "Please!"
You should appreciate and appreciate her. ”
