You guys, in my opinion, are missing one very important fact: if it wasn't  
for the work done by SAAC, it is debatable that the Shelby brand would be  
anywhere near as well known, respected or intact. What isn't debatable is that  
there would be much less confirmed history and data on the individual cars...and 
 the doors would have remained wide open for the "cloning" of Shelbys (sound  
familiar?). Fact is, Shelby, the man, basically turned his back on the  whole 
Ford relationship, and the cars, as soon as the racing was  done, moving on 
to other projects to generate a buck...remember the Shelby Omni?  I'm not 
saying there's anything wrong with that, but the fact is SAAC took up  the task of 
preserving the history and integrity of the Shelby Fords, when no  one else 
was willing to... 
 
No matter how you look at it, while Shelby owns his name, SAAC has been the  
true steward of the legacy and is owed, big time, by the Shelby family.
