It looks to be old but I don't recall seeing "Powered By Ford" on any original team apparel.
Could be that I've just not noticed that before though. Does it have anyones name embroidered on the front?

There is no name on it but I got it from Robert Lee, who used to work for Shelby building Cobras and GTs. He didn't tell me the story behind it and he passed on a few years ago so I'm looking to the experts.
I believe he once showed me a picture of a pit crew wearing the jackets but I can't seem to find it on the internet.

I have a Shelby Team Jacket and it is blue with just Cobra on the back and a Cobra Emblem on the left sleeve. It also has the Shelby logo on the right front near where a pocket top would be. I have seen pictures of this jacket being worn by the Shelby team members. But the one you have could have also been one they wore as it is close.
