"I'd really like to have all that stuff from the old days for the Shelby Museum we're building at the factory in Las Vegas. I want my legacy to be mine and Ford's, not part of some for-profit operation."

So Ford and SAI are not "for profit" operations?

"In my opinion, if these people aren't smart enough to design their own cars, they shouldn't be able to make money reproducing what I did in the 1960s, with help from Ford and great people like Ken Miles and Jerry Titus."

Remind me again what cars CS "designed"? The only vehicle Shelby (any iteration of the company) ever designed for the street was the Series 1. (I am not counting the Shelby Can-Am race car and there may be some question about who really designed the car I am told)

Revisionist history at its best!
