Default R.I.P Carroll Shelby
I know this is unusual on a Mopar forum, but for us Turbo Dodge owners, he touched us greatly. For me personally, a 1983 Shelby Charger was my first new car. I still have that car. If not for that man, I would have no interest in cars other than simply transportation.
You will be dearly missed Mr Shelby, but the legend you created will live on forever...

Yes...the Automobile world lost probably one of their finest legends with his passing.
