Some celebrities are more careful about what they endorse than others. Endorse to many items or inferior items and you loose some credibility, the 'value' goes down. For me, Shelby crossed that line a long time ago, but apparently not for the general public. A Shelby 'endorsed product' just doesn't do much to inspire me one way or the other anymore. The list of Shelby endorsed products, the endorsement obtained for a fee, is a very LONG list.

While the BROCK COUPE is a great car, Shelby's endorsement didn't have squat to do with making it that. His endorsment of SPF in general is just another example of bullying, greed and theft in my opinion. I was astonished to see SPF roll over on this issue and accept it, even BUY it. Shameful it is, a slap in the face of the replica industry in general.
