We all know just how much Carroll Shelby did for the whole automotive industry and that his heart lied with the Ford Mustang. I just watched a documentary of this mans great life. From race at driver to up and coming performance and industry changing designs, the man was and will always be a legend. His answer to the engineers was always " needs more hp" and this is the reason why mustangs have stayed on top. May he rest in peace.

 

I never knew he had passed away. He was an awesome guy, and all performance enthusiasts owe him a thank you for his contributions and innovations pertaining to going fast.

 

Hard to believe he's been gone a year already

 

A true American legend and know thoughout the automotive industry. R.I.P, you are still the man.

 

Legend that was, who will step up to the plate and bat in his place now?

 

He was truly an innovator wwhose influence will forever be present in the mustang. He will be missed.

 

My housemate actually hosted for Carroll when she was a kid and he stayed the night at her familys house. Her father was a professional racer and raced shelby's among other cars, and knew Carroll from racing. I know I will continue to honor the shelby namesake by continuing to modify my mustang with the same spirit and enthusiasm he did. Legends don't ever die.
