Default Carroll Shelby same old story

Anybody remember May 1992, Shelby finds original Cobra frames in storage and starts building Cobras all over again?

Anybody remember Shelby at the LRP SAAC convention having his cronies taking pictures of ERA replicas? Anybody remember him refusing to sign ERA dashboards?

Anybody remember Shelby threatening to build his own replica Cobras because the replica builders refused to make a donation to his "heart fund" for every car sold?

I can only assume Shelby saw all the money SAAC was collecting at it's convention and wanted a piece of the action.

Some things never change, if the other kids won't let you share in their sand box you build your own sand box and put in all the toys with your name on them (no sharing required).
