Amy Boylan is president of Shelby Autos in LV...they make cars and stuff. There are quite a few corporate entities that operate independently in CS's domain. One such company is Shelby Licensing, in Los Angeles. They don't make cars and stuff. They manage the licensing of all CS's brands and trademarks. That company has it's own president... he doesn't post here. Perhaps you can call him Monday. :rolleyes: If the dialog in this thread doesn't stay at a civil level, it will be shut down. |
And I see Carroll......
.........doing this!
http://youtube.com/watch?v=1EDCbz2lt_0 jdog P.S. What would this car be without Carroll Shelby?;) |
Amen to that

computerworks,
It would be a shame if you did that, the two are one and the same , legally they are seperated , but they work hand in hand in this situation. To say one had no conversation with the other on this matter would be un believable. JohnT |
Just ban Tout until the thread is over, rather than risk having to shut it down.
Cool UTube post jdog, I hope when I'm Carroll's age I can still do doughnuts in my Cobra! :LOL: |
EX,
For what? What don't you like? I haven't done anything except ask the questions. If an honest answer comes along I would leave it alone. Tout |

As Ron said, you are combining two buisness entities into one, and expecting the president of one company to answer for things she doesn't control. If you want an "honest" answer, then you need to ask the question to the right people. To assume they all share the same responsibility because the name Shelby is attached to them all, would be incorrect. |

Although my posts clearly do not read the way they should, I do agree 100% that Amy shows great initiative and composure while dealing with everyone here. I do remember her from Hotwheels and did follow her accomplishments (having a collection that just in weight is over 300 pounds of HW's), and I do wish that she can turn around SAI.....However (yes, there is always the flip side with me isn't there;)), it does trouble me with just how this is being accomplished and at what cost (no not dollars and cents) and toll to the automobile community it's effect will be. Again I wish her, Carroll Shelby, and SAI well. Sincerely, Bill S. |
Good FINAL statement from you, Bill.
:cool: |

Take a break from this thread. Your expected cooperation is appreciated. :cool: |
jammo,
This will be my last post on this,not because you or EX or anyone else that does not like the questions, the tone is because I feel strongly on this topic and is NOT intended to be rude, but some times a corporate ex needs a verbal kick in the head to let something in that they have overlooked. NO I don't think SAAC is perfect and this would not even be a topic if the license was left in place, there will never be another club that has done what SAAC has done to preserve the cars and their history, protect owners and future owners from fraud and clones in the system. JohnT |
I don't give a good golly damn as to why it's your last on this thread...I'm just tickled freeking pink that it is.
The "kicks in the head" are what will NOT be permitted in this discussion. Many thanks. ;) |
David...don't like to hijack, but could not let this one pass....
"and watch the Eagles play the Cowgirls!" Sure did lay a whuppin on the poor Eagles, for a bunch of girls! Out $67m man played pretty well, so I guess britney Spears didn't keep him out too late.;) The best game was the afternoon on CBS...Pats/Colts. Can the Pats be stopped?????????? Now we can go back on topic, HOPEFULLY everyone has simmered down a bit! |
Oooh I can feel the testosterone way over here in Sussex.......
Strange how feelings can get so out of hand. It's only about the cars at the end of the day - lumps of metal with a wheel at each corner :-) I guess it's frustrating that none of the people on CC can affect the outcome of this situation. My only observation re SAAC is that it is the only automobile club that has ever taken the time and trouble to help me, a mere foreigner in a foreign country, in my research. In fact they have bent over backwards (if I can say that) to assist, far and above the call of duty. They sent me photos and info back in 1979 and have continued to mail me everything from that date, to keep me in the loop. I'm amazed and impressed to say the least and to this day, I still get a polite response to every commuincation despite the workload they must be sinking under. Is SAAC 'elitist'? Probably, but name me one auto club that does not have a certain 'inner circle'.....Not that any of the above has any direct bearing on the past 13 pages, but I was feeling left out, so that's my worthless 2 cents. I wish Amy success (and unlimited patience) in all her endeavours and trust that the guys in LA improve their Public Relations image - needs a little polishing. |
Amy B. I picked up the new magazine Friday night and like what I've been able to read so far.:D Congrats, and hope to see another one soon.
|
Jay, where did you get the magazine?? What's it called again??
(i hate the thought of going back all these pages to find the name of it :eek: ) thanks, Kristen |
I am Back on the Soap Box...

Prior to this Thread, I was not aware of Amy's employment as a Senior Vice President at Mattel. The press announcement when Amy joined the CSI organization.
"In her new role as President, Boylan will provide oversight of the company's sales, marketing, production and financial areas at the Las Vegas, NV headquarters. " http://www.prnewswire.com/cgi-bin/st...4102925&EDATE= |
No matter how good an idea a 'business' arrangement might be, it comes down to the people working together. If Shelby and the others simply can't see eye to eye, for whatever reason, it's a bad business plan. It would appear this is the case, SAAC does their thing, without the official license from Shelby, thats the way it is. At least in the forseeable future.
The new way of doing business is to embrace your customers, give them something special, make them feel like a part of the team, offer them a 'club'. LOTS of business' are doing this these days. The Shelby future is in NEW cars, not old ones. It makes perfect sense to embrace the new owners and modern cars, bring them into the fold, give them something special. Aiming (Amying? :D ) at this target group, whilst not alienating others, is especially tough as it concerns the history and passion of the Cobra world. With the Hot Wheels crowd, it was pretty straight forward (were those the 'salad days' Amy?). It's vastly more complex with THIS crowd carrying around a lot of historic 'baggage'! :LOL: |
The thing that surprises me the most about this thread is a bothered to look:eek:
