Wow! What an insult to Caroll Shelby... letting one of his cars get so bad. Imagine if that had been one of his "Cobras!"

When I was a kid, I was allowed to walk about 1/2 mile up to a local "mom and pop" merchant store area in town. There would be a local hardware store, a barber shop (I'd get my hair cut there), a classic "Sweet shop/soda fountain" store, a small "Acme" grocery, etc. etc. I'd walk up a small hill and then turn right onto the main drag where the shops were located.

Just before I'd make that right turn (the Hardware Store was on that corner), there was always a GT500 parked outside (Blue with silver/white accents). I gather its owner was an employee at the hardware store. But you could see that "Shelby" moniker all over it. I marveled at that car, wanting one for many years.

Ah well. As stated much earlier, I really don't have a place to drive a car like that... ie. the way it *should* be driven. And I'd probably have trouble getting in and out of it, now (too low). I think I'm condemned to taller SUV's for the rest of my life. :(
