      Shelby is a promoter and just still doing what he always did. His '60s exploits made a great regular-guy-makes-legend thing, and his continued presence and promotion is surely part of the reason it's so familiar to everybody.

      But, it's too familiar to me, yep.

        He is being used as martor before his time is up.
        That just shows there is no one around now a days to take his place.

Remember this is a much different world than the 60s-70s both with special interest cars, racing, and economic structure. I think it is great he has transended thru the decades rolling with the changes and found a way to keep "Shelby" cars coming.

              The first time that I've wholeheartedly agreed with Spidey. ;D


              Mr. Shelby is certainly stretching the value of his name as much as possible, there's a reason why on many forums he is referred to as $helby now.

                          he does not seem to be all that broke up about kid dieing



                          The Shelby foundation has donated far less than 5 percent, although it is not bound by the same regulations. Shelby's charity avoids the 5 percent rule because it gets all its funds from public donations. Shelby has not put his own money into the foundation.


                          The foundation also has fallen far short of voluntary standards set by the BBB Wise Giving Alliance, an Arlington, Va., organization that helps donors make informed judgments about charities.


                          The alliance says that at least 65 percent of an organization's total expenses should go for grants. In the case of the Shelby foundation, grants represented no more than 13 percent of expenses in any of the four years for which tax documents were reviewed.


                          Alliance COO Bennett Weiner said the expenses don't appear to be out of line; the organization just isn't spending much of what it takes in.

                                I don't understand what J/W's likeness and car fleet have to do with Shelby. "you have been challenged.." what the hell, are we back in high school. Give it a rest.
