If you're going to call Shelby a fraud, why start so recently? Why not go all the way back to the very beginning, when he is reputed to have lied to both Ford and to A/C, reportedly telling them both that he had received guarantees from the other company for "advances" of equipment...when he had not...and based on those assurances each of the companies agreed to supply him what he wanted.
Now...THAT's fraud if you ask me.
But, hey...I'm just a guy who likes what he did with what he got...regardless of how he got it.
Cheers!
