Trevor,
I believe that one person on this thread is perhaps misguided. perhaps he read something by W.W. and believes it to be fact, instead of the twisted fiction we are all used to. The quote "me thinks thou protest too much" comes in to play.
But then again, what would "I" know

I agree whole-heartedly... We all agree that we love the Cobra and what it is. Why and who are interesting enough, but not really that important. Down to the point. We love Cobras. Don't get lost in the details which are nothing more than a place to put your curiosity from the love of the car. While Carroll Shelby is an important figure and most statements to honor him are worthwhile, the fact remains, it's the car, not Carroll we love. I would invite you to develop/post on the Carroll Shelby Club website(s). |

Absolutely incorrect. While there are many that didn't like him for some of the shannanigans he pulled while alive there are also as many if not more that loved and respected him for all the good and great things he did. I'm one of them. Btw did you ever buy anything with his autograph? People paid for it if you didn't know.

My brain hurts too. Pretty much everywhere he uses "of" should be "have". Probably went to school in the 80s when they ditched spelling and grammar.

I believe the Millennials and the advent of texting are responsible for the lost art of spelling and grammar. Don't blame it on the 1980's. |
