I have heard through the years that the volume of documents from Shelby Cobra and Shelby Mustang production is rather large. We, as a group on this forum, do not know the details of this arrangement. Are we talking gift or open-ended lending? In another thread What's a Cobra suggested copying the material and giving it back. That may be the best answer if financially feasable. If the documentation was a gift, maybe Carroll should foot the bill to copy everything.

Fast Farmer, I posted a comment on the Registry on the thread "rumor control--has SAAC lost its use of Shelby name?" that might interest you. The information from Shelby's attic only makes up a portion of what is in the Registry.
