That is great to hear! Thanks. I wish I would have bought mine a year ago so I would have at least had a chance to actually meet him...

I have a book titled "Shelby Cobra Fifty Years" by Colin Comer. I have read a bit more than half of it so far. Thre are quite a few race legends discussed in the book. How many of them are still around today? Do they make appearances at shows, Dream Cruises, etc...?
