Did the value of Shelby cars just go up. Maybe a special commemorative edition will be available. RIP Mr Shelby

He's at the BIG race track in the sky now RIP. I wonder what kind of car he's going to build for God??

NO REGRETS!!

To take from one because it is thought that his own industry and that of his father’s has acquired too much, in order to spare to others, who, or whose fathers, have not exercised equal industry and skill, is to violate arbitrarily the first principle of association—the guarantee to every one of a free exercise of his industry and the fruits acquired by it. Thomas Jefferson

The XP is the most fun sled ever made - but I like my XR more.

Why haven't I heard of this until now??? I'm clearly not in the loop the last few weeks. My pops hasn't even said anything and his car dash is signed by Carroll Shelby. RIP
