There are a number of people more qualified and balanced to comment on this SAI issue than I am.

For the "family":
Sometime ago a "high ranking" SAI employee promised to get something special signed by Shelby for my son. I was pretty excited for my boy and told him to watch the mail for it. It never came, I had to apologize to my son. That hurt, to say the least. I'm certainly not the first guy to have been disappointed by SAI, and won't be the last.
You forgot to send it with a $50.00 dollar check write out to the Heart Find. just send it directly to the Charity and they will not only get it signed, but return it with a Certificate of authenticity. Carroll Shelby is an 82 year old Man living with a Double organ transplant for 12 years now. It is a miracle he is alive, let alone doing as much as he can on a daily basis. He gets worn out from age, Medication and Anti rejection drugs. He put his empire in the hands of Many people. some of which were bad decisions. I know there are others who have done their best for him and try as they may are unable to put "Humpty" back together again. when you have too many irons in the fire, some are bound to melt. It is just ashme that the it Had to be His most Famous Car that made him, Bring him down in the end. I wonder how the Chilli and Tulli Bull industry are doing these days?
