normiss 898 #4 May 12, 2012 Dismissing the Shelby Cobra so easily? The GT40?? The Viper??? Shelby Chargers???? Dodge Daytonas????? Like his contributions to soo much in racing and the automobile industry, his chili is pretty god damn good too. I'm sure I omitted a lot too. The man did a TON for American automobiles. Ford, Dodge, and quite a bit for technical adviser and design help with Oldsmobile. MUCH respect for him. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

airdvr 210 #8 May 12, 2012 As a youngin' I was into plastic model building. I can remember there being a 45 record that you could tape to the turntable. It was audio of Carroll taking a lap at Riverside in the Shelby Mustang. Very cool. Please don't dent the planet. Destinations by Roxanne Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
