Uh-huh. He had it all figured out.
I have occasionally heard that Shelby was a Snake Oil Salesman at one time. Now I have seen some of the other stuff he has sold like Pit Stop deodorant come up for sale on eBay on rare occasions, but why is it that I have never seen the Shelby Snake Oil for sale ever? Is it that much rarer than Pit Stop deodorant?
