I agree with Mr Wood. Festival Vintage Race, the Shelby club holds court on one side of the track on show day, and Tigers are always there. This is, after all, Mr Kopecs neigborhood playground. Also

Thank you for an interesting history. I, too, worked 5 miles from Shelby's Imperial location, had friends who worked there, and toured it a few times. This is the same set of buildings, and teams, t

I think Rande makes some great points. I for one am old enough to recall the first reviews of the Tiger, where the reviewers in the auto-mags called the car "...a poor man's Cobra." In addition, the
