With a saddened heart, I will let those here know that Tony Sousa has gone to big race track in the sky. (tonysshelbys---30) He was the owner of CSX 7035 and an originaly 65 Shelby GT 350.

Godspeed my friend.

About the same age as many of us, to young. My condolences to the family and friends.

I will miss Tony. My good friend Noel went to Cal with Tony and introduced me to him (years ago) because we both had Shelbys. After meeting Tony he asked if I'd come over to his parents house, in San Francisco, where he used to keep his Shelby and help him with some starting problems. After we got if fired up we went driving around the city in this really loud and fast Shelby. I kept thinking, hell, if I was a DA and carried a badge, mine would be this loud too.
