Is $helby making the same mistake twice???
Please forgive me if this is covered ground. The picture of ol' $helby leaning on his new Shelby Cobra Daytona Coupe (as built by Superformance) got me thinking. What happened to the Superformance Brock coupe? There is no mention anywhere on the Superformance site of Pete's involvement in any way with the redesign of the coupe. When this car was introduced they shouted from the rooftops the fact that Pete himself designed the car. Now am I to understand that Superformance got into bed with $helby and were told by him when their lips were firmly planted on the balloon knot that a name change was part of the deal? If this is the case it is amazing the level that this old fart will go to continue his one sided feud with one of the many people most responsible for his legend. The funny part is that if this is indeed the case $helby apparently has no problem putting his name on a car not once but twice that he calls "the biggest mistake I ever made". It also says a lot to me about the people that run Superformance....
