I remember this period very well. Being born in 1950, I was a teenager in the 60s. The life revolved around 3 things, phenomenal music, pretty girls and fast cars. Being from Texas, Carroll Shelby was a god to us. I had a 67 Mustang as a 16th birthday present from my parents. I got in in Sept 1966, right when the new 67s came out and only months after LeMans where the GT-40s finished 1-2-3 and thumped Enzo Ferrari on the nose.... hard! It was like winning WWII all over again. Thanks to ALL the men whose genius and talent gave us the pony and muscle car era and gave us old codgers such epic memories!

Shelby himself said he finished his last race in 1960 winning after the 5th Nitro Glyceryn pill, and said to himself "I am done driving". No fan fare, no year long tour of making millions as his finishes kept getting worse. Such is commonplace today. Gotta respect that. That being said he went on to become a huge legend of American racing and sports car building. Winning the 66 Le Mans was the icing on the cake by beating Ferrari for the 2nd time! RIP Ken Miles, Carroll Shelby ,Dan Gourney ,Phil Hill,Peter Brock These guys were all my hero's as a young, and older, Ford Racing fan, and competitor.

35:00 or so. It was very nice to hear what Mr. Shelby had to say about the awesomely awesome Ken Miles. I hope Ken's son gets to hear about things like this because there was only ever one guy on the whole planet who was Ken Miles. This is probably not true but it can sometimes seem like we'll never again see the likes of folks like Carroll Shelby or Ken Miles. They fit into automobile racing in such a neat way and I'll never get tired of hearing the stories of Ford's very spirited racing program in the 1960s.

At 19 I worked for Carroll at his GoodYear Tire store. I didn't really understand at the time who I was working for. He had me drive his green GT 500 Mustang to the dealer to have it serviced. I took all the GoodYear Indy tires to the Fontana race track, and while I was unloading the tires, Al & Bobby Unser were standing on by the pit wall. I was too afraid to go over and say hi. But in my mind I was thinking, holy smoke, they really are real people. I think AL won the Indy 500 that year.

I am not a Ford fan to say the least but have to acknowledge what Ford has done over the years for the automotive industry in general and for racing. They did not make the man Carol Shelby but they did promote him, his team, and to some small degree his ideals. I am a fan of Mr Shelby and happy to say I had the chance to meet him in his shop at Las Vegas Speedway 20 years ago. If I had one word to describe the man it is " Character". I saw the movie last year and thought it was excellent , I was glad to see they mentioned Ken Mills in this and to see the reaction of Mr. Shelby when he spoke of the loss of his friend, even after 20 plus years. Not sure who the 222 people were who gave a thumbs down to this video but they are entitled to there own opinions.

As I grew up Carroll Shelby was my idol. My uncle bought the first Thunderbird in 1955 sold in Texas. In 1969 my aunt totaled the Thunderbird. My uncle bought the car back and started restoring it. He had a hair up his b-tt and bought a new 429 cobra engine. He used Corral Shelby's ideal but bored the 429 out to 460. Man did that car fly. I rode with my uncle once and he had the car up to a145 miles an hour and scared the hell out of me but I was hooked on speed from that day forward. My love for that T-Bird had me hooked on it. My dream was to own it but unfortunately this didn't happen. My uncle sold the car in 1983 for more money than I could afford plus my dad told my uncle I probably would get into a lot of trouble with it. Which is more than likely the truth. I ended up with a 1973 mustang mark 1 with a 351 modified 400 which within a few months I hoped it up. But to this day I am a corral Shelby fan and he still is my idol. Thanks to him I gain the love of speed a the love of cobra's for which I have wanted one ever sense. In my opinion Ford without Corral Shelby helped make ford successful in part with the Cobra.

No king, no inheritance, (but there is nothing wrong with passing what you earned to your own family). You are thinking like opposition to a dictatorship or a monarchy, (as you must see the USA), not for appreciation of individual liberty and our free market that allowed Carrol to be Carrol, (and every great individual to be great in the USA---for us to follow). This man was a individual with a rational thinking mind, and he flourished in OUR free market, (what is left of it and individual liberty). Ohhhh--the king or dictator would never allow that as every "thinker" is shut down under their rule. Man has to have freedom to use their mind and explore the best of it's ability. Of course, with that liberty, he had no desire to rule over people, he just loved his work and wanted to be the best at what he did, (and prosper from his efforts). That---is the definition of freedom.

I fixed up a 65 mustang, my Grandfather gave me for my 16th birthday, that was 35 years ago. I've been hooked ever since, I got a gt 500 5 years ago, now I need a gt 350 R to complete the dream.

I was driving through Denver North Carolina in the 70’s. Saw two Cobras sitting at a small auto shop. Turned around and went back. Both were for sale for 8000 each. I wanted one so bad but that’s was about all I made in a year.

There’s only one other person I can think of who embodied the mystique of a car brand the way Carroll Shelby did. Enzo.

Carroll Shelby is my model senior citizen with a great history, humility, love of family, and still test driving high performance Cobra creations in his nineties! As I approach 70, I am still learning about his contributions to auto performance history.

My multiverse dream world has Carroll still alive, ppl age much slower there. He was picked up by GM and developed the Shelby Corvette which GM let him design and build. It was release with a V8 at launch and sol phenonenonally well. He continued with the corvette until n the release of the Shelby Camaro. After the 69 model year he went on with Pontiac to make Shelby Trans Ams. He continued with the Trans Am until through 81, then went back to Corvette with the C5 and continues with the Shelby Corvette to this day. Just imagine what those cars would be like. A dream indeed.
