Lost a good one. Just think of the places he'd been and cool stuff he'd seen.

RIP CS. As Ford fans, we all owe him a lot for his innovations and pushing Ford in the right direction in the 1960's.

Very sad day for anyone who knew anything about him. A legend has been lost. Rest in peace Mr. Shelby and thank you for all you have brought to this world.

Kind of sad when i read that. He seemed like a really great car guy...not many like him. We have too many "corporate" guys...i put him in the same class as Jack Rousch...maybe CS and John Lingenfelter are bench racing right now...Godspeed Carrol Shelby
