Shelby's opinion doesn't matter to me at all, but I do love me a GT40. Those Superformance ones are gorgeous. The post-Shelby victories in 1968/69 are the most impressive ones, done by a small (two-car, IIRC) team with an overweight, outdated car running a smaller engine than used in the 1966 and 1967 Ford blitzkriegs.

Shelby's blessing degrades it. Shelby would still be an icon if he hadn't turned into a greedy old man suing people for the right to data they collected etc. and flogging his naming rights for millions. If he'd died at 60 he'd still be a hero, as it is, if I ever own an S197 GT500, the first thing I will do is remove any and all references to him on the car. Obligatory pic

Says "Shelby" seventeen times on the outside. Might as well be a Harley...

Dunno, I just Googled 'Fallen Icon' and found it.

I have no interest in or need for owning a trucklet / jeep-type thing, but I would rock a Scout. Or a Travelall, for that matter.

My wife is a horse vet and our future will have a country home with a horse barn and car shop. She says she'll get my a horse that is rock steady since I'm a rookie. But my dream is to have this on while I riding fences:

TVR Cerbera Evo, nothing to do with a Viper.

That's the TVR Speed 12.

My grandpa had one when I was a kid. His was blue and white and rust colored. I became increasingly rust colored and time when on. He could have hour long conversations about battling rust and the most effective rust treatments currently on the market. The rust won.

If I am up in the mountains I normally have my SAA on my hip in a holster made by a guy local around here. Extra ammo is held in a simple slide I made when bored one night and normally have a Buck Akonua on the other side.

City life.

Oh yeah and in reply to the Scout this one is for sale on my local Craigslist.

I ate dis.

For breakfast I had a bagel, slightly toasted, then put on tomato slices and fresh basil from the garden, sprinkle on a bit of Chipotle flakes, then cover with cheese.

Broil.

Looks similar to the one below, but tastes wicked better!

In reply to Grtechguy:

I love that, probably more than I should.
