[SunDude]

I came across some pics of the Shelby Snake Pit at this year's Eyes on Design Car Show (Jun 17, 2012), and thought I'd share them.

1963 Shelby 260 Cobra (CSX2045), Erin Lindsay (Manchester MI)






1964 Shelby 289 Cobra (CSX2159), Ron Riffel (Indianapolis IN)






Shelby 427 Cobra continuation series (CSX6062), William Deary (Michigan)

According to the windshield lettering, this car was "driven by Carroll Shelby in his 2010 IMAX documentary film." Apparently this film about Shelby's life as a racer and auto manufacturer is being produced by a company called 21st Century 3D, but needs funding to be completed and released.

1966 Ford GT40 MkI road car (P/1050), James Kinsler (Troy MI)






Superformance GT40R, Rick Schans (Allen Park MI)

Thanks for sharing.

Guys, just keep in mind Richard has over 59,000 photos on the site Flickr: carphoto

If you are a car buff - it's well worth to spent that time there.

SunDude,

FYI, Mr and Mrs Riffel are in the second CSX2159 photo above. Also, have you seen any of the Awards Ceremony in front of the Estate House when it was raining? I've never seen rain drops that big !!!

Lovely pictures Sun Dude. I am having a difficult time waiting for warmer weather. But I guess that's about normal for the Northerners like us. Roasted rare in summer. Contending with dashes of mulled wine, and no traction in winter!
