I think we all suspect that Shelby would put his name to one of Walmarts trolleys if there was a buck or two to be earned; he's endorsed his share of replica cobras in the past (for money).

I think its a sad end for somebody who should be a universally respected racing icon to be pursuing legal action. In his dotage, he should be enjoying the adoration of his fans, and also basking in the massive compliment of all the cobra and daytona clones that should be his crowning epitaph; but what will we most likely remember??

Sad, so very sad, but for Shelby really, as we all know he's not going to get anywhere with this.

Such a shame.
