Description

By: Randy Leffingwell .

The Shelby Mustang was the result of a unique collaboration between a colorful, talented, and opinionated Texan and one of the most iconic automobiles of the 20th century.

When Ford Motor Company was looking to add competitive spice to its Mustang racing team, they selected famed car builder Carroll Shelby, who was combining a British body with a Ford engine to create the Cobras that were tearing up the tracks. He translated that power to the Mustang formula and a relationship was forged.

During an era that valued muscle, power, and speed above all else, Shelby's Cobras and GTs ruled tracks around the world. Shelby's victories at Le Mans, Tour de France, and many other events sealed the popularity for production vehicles as well as any car carrying the Mustang icon. That popularity continues as Ford and Shelby prepare to unveil the next generation of the Cobra GT500 in 2007.

Award-winning author Randy Leffingwell tells the story of the Shelby Mustang, its development, history, racing performance, and rebirth with stories from those who witnessed it, including Carroll Shelby himself. With accompanying images by acclaimed photographer David Newhardt, this book is the perfect addition to any racing fan's library.
