To accomplish all that he did and live to 89, not many can say the same. Blasting through the Pearly Gates in a plume of tire smoke.....

Oh no. First Im hearing this.I admired the man since I was a kid in the 60's and my older brothers buddy owned a 427 Cobra. He was an American automoble legend. Always wanted to meet him but never did. Came close a couple years ago in Vegas but didnt work out. RIP Mr. Shelby.

Wow, not much about this elsewhere. Why is it we hear about every celeb's baby issues and not about great minds like Shelby passing? Major loss to the automotive industry. RIP.
