I bought the ad, I think (not sure yet if my bid was accepted).Anyhow the tires said SHELBY on the side and the ad has Shelby wearing a cowboy hat The ad dated from about 1967, '68 or '69. I wonder who made the tires for him? Were they better than the tires on Shelby Mustangs? You wonder why you couldn't order a Shelby Mustang with Shelby tires.

I also have the DEP hair pomade ad (that was when it was cool to grease your hair down flat) but I still say the picture of Shelby in that ad looks more like Albert Finney, the actor.

I haven't got the Jantzen clothing ad, but will buy it when I see it on ebay.
It has Shelby wearing a Tam-o-shanter (sp?)

Botany 500 , who make suits, sponsored his 4WD turbine indy car, I wonder if Botany 500 ever put out an ad showing the car, or if the car was never even painted before Shelby yanked the entry (around '68)
