Pick your side

[Wayne Maybury]

This whole thing is so very sad. For decades we held this man in high regard, almost aa a saint. SAAC made sure that the cars he built were properly recorded and documented in their registry. After many years, our hero found some frames that he claimed to be original dating back to the 60's so he could produce a few more original Cobras. Then the law suits began against anyone and it appeared everyone that crossed the man's path.

Now Mr. $helby has decided that the $helby enthusiast would be better off without SAAC. SAAC are expected to turn over all information dealing with Cobras and $helby Mustangs whether or not it came from Shelby in the first place. They cannot use any of a long list of names and/or words, etc, etc. $helby has even applied to register the name SAAC. This sounds like one thing to me, and that is that $helby has decided to squash SAAC.

Anyone wanting to bet that more frames are already being lined up ready to be discovered?

I find it very sad indeed that my automotive hero appears to be turning into a greedy old man.

Kristen;
I, like you, am usually not a picker of sides. I enjoy too much of the 'car scene' to by nature pick one group over another. But this has gone to a whole new level of deception and deceit. A multitude of lies have been spread all the while to cover what was from the very beginning an underhanded attempt to destroy one society for personal vengenance and outright greed. When you or someone you care about is attacked, when someone lies to your face and stabs you in the back while approaching as your friend I see no middle ground. So I and many others believe that yes, it is very necessary to 'pick sides'. There was plenty of room for everybody until one man decided that he owned the sandbox. I agree it was unnecessary. But I did not make the decision to defecate in the sand.
