wickershaw, the concept that Shelby in some way 'owns' the SAAC registry not only leaves me baffled but with my jaw dropped. He never 'loaned' the registry to SAAC, they created it through years of hard work and research. While they certainly employed some items Shelby granted them access to from his personal attic; that is but a small fraction of the data used to compile this great work over 30 years. the bulk of the material (literally truck loads) came directly from Ford, enthusiasts and other sources.

There are many clubs and web sites that track the history of various cars, take the Corvette for example. The body of work these clubs have generated over the years does not belong to GM or the manufacurer, it belongs to the 'club'.

Now Shelby wants his own 'club' and his own 'registry', I have no problem with that. Let him build one the same way SAAC did, hard work, research, paper work from Ford and help from club members. Will Ford 'own it' when he is done? I think not.
