Default Shelby GR-1
I was at the L.A. Auto Show yesterday and saw the GR-1. It was a nice looking car, but I prefer the Ford GT that was sitting next to it. I talked to the Ford rep who said that Ford built the GR-1 and when Carroll Shelby saw that prototype, he told them to chuck the Ford Shelby Cobra concept. The rep said it was the likely replacement for the Ford GT, but it was not definitive that it would be built.

BTW - The Ford Shelby Cobra was not at the L.A. Auto Show - although local advertising stated it would be displayed.
