Beskrivning
Few racing names stir passions quite
like Carol Hall Shelby.
Born in Texas the one time chicken
farmer elbowed his way through the
ranks of American racing drivers to
gain a seat in Aston Martin¿s DBR1 in
which he famously won Le Mans
alongside Roy Salvadore in 1959. His
Shelby American race team ran the
Ford GT40 which won Le Mans in 1966 ¿
immortalised in the film Le Mans 66 -
and the following year too. But it is his
Shelby Cobra which to many made his
legend: a US/UK muscle car that looked
out of its time but somehow became
one of the most famous cars ever
made.
