Not 100% sure on the antenna.

I think some Shelby's used a rear/electric and I decided it was a nice touch I wanted. What's "correct" on a repli-bute of a prototype that went thru who knows how many changes... ???

Tail panel and rear almost done (gas cap stick on badge, rear window trim)

Interior coming together

And, finally, the wheels went on today, still need center caps and proper lug nuts...

Maybe a light at the end of the tunnel... or a train coming!

When I first saw the close-up of those wheels I thought "nahhh", but when panned out and in the context of the whole car, they look great and tie in nicely with the stripes.
