      PS This comment says it all: "Shelby has the world record for most pants shat per capita due to engine noise"

      PPS I read a book by him years ago about the development of the AC Cobra that was really a good read.
      Can't remember the name right now though...

        I watched an interview with him, where he was asked "What's your favorite car that you've designed?".
        His answer was "My next one".

        He was the epitome of 20th century muscle cars.

        The auto industry has lost one of it's greatest legends.
