Oh wow. He is such an icon, you'd think he'll live forever. That new GT500 is going to be all kinds of hot!

I would have liked to be able to drive a 1000+ HP Shelby. If I was rich maybe...

Somebody near me has a Boss 500. I see it at the service area at the dealer sometimes. It's blue like my truck and it has me drooling every time I see it.

Bill Cosby did quite a routine featuring Carol Shelby and the AC Cobra on his album 200 MPH.
Shelby was a pioneer of automotive performance. Most forms of racing had some influence from him. The high performance world has lost a unique and innovative mind.
R.I.P. Carol
