The current car generation crowd knows Shelby as a slippery, old timer pitch guy.
It s also an unfair comparison between a car guy who grew up in the 60s to a present car guy buying nostaglia.

Wow ....Sir. ???

60s good ol boy tryin to make. $$$ Mid 70s kind stayed out of the limelight... Don't think guys were leaving deposits for Cobra's. Lots were left over... That was BIG $$$$$ at that time.
.... Difference between back then an now ???? Hell ya.. Most of us worked on our own cars. Modified them an had fun. It was just a car back then.. Today ????? Just look in here
.... I firmly believe "SAAC" kept the "name" going ... Lots of earlier clubs helped to.

.... Bottom like buy what ya want an drove the hell out of it... Get tired of it ???.? SELL it !! YES as ya get older u do change. . How many guys in here have had a car for 42 YEARS ???

Now who in here knows about a 65 Griffith 200 or 400 for sale ?????.
