rumor control--has SAAC lost its use of Shelby name?

[mtml427]

While I have not read all the postings on this thread, it seems to me that there is usually an alternative to any situation. Is it possible that Ford Motor Company could be approached to gain authorization for the Cobra name in the spirit of elevating new cars sales via a corporation interested in giving back to a community that has been and continues to be promoters of the Ford name and product?
Shelby should be on top of the world knowing the best form of compliment is replication. To be able to recreate your own creation and have it be well received and have clubs that honor you is even a bigger compliment.
I have a ninety three year old neighbor that has little but a truly big heart. He is vibrant and friendly. Every day he rides his bike to the Post Office and loves the opportunity to talk with the neighbors. He may not be on par with Shelby but is an icon in his own right. His name is Jack Hagamann. Maybe Shelby should give Jack a call. Memories are what survives us all. They may as well be good ones.
