this thread is unique and special now. shelby signed it
. signatures dont matter. signatures used to matter when the person mattered. we dont live in a day of autographs anymore because everyone famous isnt necessarily talented anymore in the age of marketing.
shelby was actually pretty underhanded and shiesty. iirc a story about CS hearing that GM was moving ahead with the KING OF THE ROAD CORVETTE. he had his patent lawyer call up and patent the name before GM could snaking (pun intended) a namesake that GM was going to use.
in the real world thats not creative. its just taking something someone else was planning and do it before them. just like all his other projects.
