Man!  That is sad.  I've always been intrigued with Carroll Shelby's ingenuity and the Shelby GT cars; always amazing.  He will truly be missed.

The man was truly a legend.  RIP Carroll Shelby.

And now the American Way - out of true respect for this marvelous genius, Shelby Cobras and the older Shelby Cobra Mustangs just doubled in value.  (sarcasm mode off)

RIP Carl.  My buddy has his Shelby glove box door signed by him.
