I'm surrounded by his work daily so it's definitely put a damper on things here at the shop, only adding to the gloom of an already rainy day.

That does suck, but expected with the age.

He had battled a few cobra replica companies for knocking the car off lol

One of the best car builders of our time
He will be missed

You know anything with his name on it went way up in value. I would love to have one of the original GT350/500.

GT500 is still in my top 10 list of cars to own. RIP Shelby.

gt500 is one of my fave cars ever made.

I work at a Ford dealership and we lined the Cobras out by the highway today. Would love to have a GT500 one day.
