What a lifetime of achievements on & off the racetrack. Shelby has left an indelible imprint on American racing & sports cars that won't be forgotten.

Prayers go out to the Shelby family, Heaven gained a wonderful human being today.

What a legend, there were none like him and there will never be another. Both an automotive genius and a fantastic, caring person who has done so many great things for society. He will be greatly missed.
