Here is the quote from the Norcal SAAC website:

"Effective immediately I, Carroll Shelby, am no longer associated or involved, in business matters or any other activities, with Mr Steven G. Becker, LLC, self-described "Deal Maker" from Suwanee, GA. Further, I retract my letter of introduction dated August 1,1999 which he publishes on his website.

Signed, Carroll Shelby
October 10, 2001"


Amy, can you respond? Many thanks.

No she really cannot comment on that one....First off she was at Hot Wheels then. secondly as it is now, Stephen is Beneath her. But if Stephen ever gets hs way, that situation will change....Watch out for the Red Devil Amy, he's got his eye on you....

guy,
Let's start over, I did not mislead anyone. I am sai and CSL cancelled the license. I knew the license was not being renewed. But I didn't have the perticulars, just that letters were sent and never responded too, even today still no offical response just the public posts.

I am not Carroll I do know he has been unhappy for years and a licensee should consult a licensor on the like all thing, even some things , anything, or even ask if he is happy with the way things are. etc, Somewhere in this someone forgot to check with the licensor and make them part of the process. And when Carroll has said he was unhappy, maybe someone should have delt with it instead of ignoring him. I have said from the begining all it probably would taken was a return call .

If Carroll is asking for stuff he probably thinks he has a right to it. That's not for me to comment on.

On the other question,the new site launches injanuary and will include aswell as our new monthly newsletter will address in detail ss1,vintage shelbys, dodge, etc. The special book was in partnership with mustangmag

Now on other sites and clubs we are talking to some since we agree some are better and have been doing it longer, we want the best for our members, owners and enthusiasts.


If i missed any questions my apologies i am on my phone and its a bit hard I will answer the rest tomorrow
