I'm going to take a quick minute to pat myself on the back. Twenty-five years of ground breaking research on the history of Shelbys is quite amazing. This website is unique and has more great information than any other single website. I also want to thank everyone that has contributed over the years. For some it is a single photograph and for others an entirely new chapter. I am pleased to announce I am currently working on a special article for the "Shelby American" magazine on the history of fuel injection.

A recent contribution is going be one of the more significant events in the website's history. Oh, did I mention it's all shared freely and without advertisements?

A special thank you to everyone that contributes to make this website the most unique and interesting and influential Shelby website in the world. You will find more contributions from people that actually lived the Shelby experience and actually ran the original dealerships!

The next incredible update scheduled for January 1, 2026. You're going to want to stop by, because there has been a significant contribution.
