Kudos to Brent and Mr. Hall. As an outsider I am swayed from one opinion to the next on this forum but it is always refreshing to hear from someone within, directly involved in the relationship. And who better than AC, Carroll Shelby, and Ford to again form a partnership. What most may fear as a threat is actually not, but rather a continuance of the lagacy and with it the future brings joy for everyone whether they own an original, a replica or a kit. The car is already a work of art and imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. We will all benefit from this as future generations will eventually recognize the timelesss beauty of the Cobra. I have heard CS more than once start out his speach by being happy to be on "top of the grass". No matter how many or how accurate or how great someone can make a replica, a car made by Shelby is going to be a legend. His rival Enzo Ferrari is the only other true automotive legend who's cars are still exceptional after he's been gone all these years. Let's hope the new alliance is continued for a long time after CS is gone.
