R.I.P automotive legend.

[oneoffaccord]

thats blows. he was a legend. knew what he wanted in a Ford. I believe he wanted a 1000hp Mustang before he passed. I think he did it,

[Soufkackicustom]

I got to meet him 3 different times. He was as down to earth as they came and a true legend

R.I.P loved the cars,but anyone with an original shelby that are a oneoff just got rich.

Dang I never got him to sign my Shelby

Rip you'll be missed!

Shelby did more than just work with ford he also worked with dodge which many don't know or remember such as the Charger and the omni.

Kids these days.

Shelby was just an overall automotive icon. I wonder what he would've done had he played with some Japanese cars!



I heard he was a real dick in his later years... suing his own fan club or something like that... but I blame senility! His automotive legend surpasses any level of dickishness he may have exhibited.

Don't know which is sadder... The passing of the LEGEND, Carroll Shelby, or the fact that powder blue hasn't grown up enough to respect a topic such as death, the death of a huge name to those of us in the automotive enthusiasts group, no less.

BTW, you have every right to be angry with Ford blue. Most taurus's on the road are worth more and faster than your car, so I can understand your piss poor attitude here. Oh wait... Nope, I still can't.

WTF are you talking about? You can't hardly GIVE a 20 year old Taurus away, and that is assume it is even still running, or isn't on its 10th transmission...

The only exception is the SHO, but then again, that would me more equivalent to a Prelude VTEC, Si or Teg GS-R. It sounds to me like you are just butthurt because someone doesn't bow down to the imagined and seldom realized superiority of domestic automakers.

And on that note, Carroll Shelby will be missed. He had a lot of cool cars under his belt, although to be fair, he hasn't been responsible for most of their newer generation of products.

WOW,r.i.p. carroll shelby.i didnt know he had passed.Always loved his work and nobody will be able to replicate.

[Losiracer2]
