Those words apply with equal felicity to both Carroll Shelby and the Cobra itself. Iconic survivors - anachronisms from another time whose overwhelming presence and excessive-force personalities have caused them to survive against the odds and well beyond all reasonable life expectations. Two gritty old fighters that don't even know how to play it safe; they shun subtlety, preferring instead brute force and direct confrontation. Loud, formidable and unapologetic, Carroll Shelby and the Cobra stand out starkly in todays watered down world of conformity, legislated caution and political correctness.
