Looking for "Texas Suede" (Possibly named "Dave")
« on: January 15, 2025, 01:41:54 PM »
He goes by "Texas Suede" on the SAAC forum. I cannot seem to join the forum because I'm not a Shelby expert.
I believe he is the one that borrowed my oil filter stamp over 10 years ago and just wondered if he still had it?
At the time he lived in Sebastian, Florida and worked at Autozone.
If anyone knows him I'd appreciate it if you'd let him know that I'd like to have my stamp back.
Thanks!

There is a "texas swede" but there is no "Texas Suede" registered on the SAAC forum at this time. FYI texas swede is also a member on this forum. There is no prerequisite to be a Shelby expert and all are welcome to join that forum in the same way that there is no prerequisite to be a Mustang expert all are welcome to become a member on this forum . Consequently your difficulty in joining is most likely on your end. Texas swede has lived in Texas for decades not Florida and has a place also in Sweden. Many on Concours forum and the SAAC forum know him to be a upstanding enthusiast . You are wrong on a more then a couple of your facts and it seems that the person registered on the SAAC forum "texas swede" is not the same as "Texas Suede"   person that you are trying to contact. Best of luck in your search.

Thank you Bob. I was misinformed then.

Hi guys, Texas Swede here. Many years ago, I bought an oil filter stamp for I believe $30 and used it a couple of times.
Never borrowed anything in my life that I did not return.
Bob, thanks for the kind words.
