Quote from: HistoryBuff on November 09, 2021, 07:47:39 AM..... a con man, which Shelby was at times when he was getting the Cobra off the groundand when he getting the GT350 through the SCCA - and when he was offering "just found" unfinished 427 chassis. - and when he built the Series 1 - and when he set up the heart fund - and when he set up shop in NV (that con ended up losing him his Coupe) - and when he sold stock - and when he sells Kirkham Cobras as "real" - - - -I have a friend who is a forensic psychologist he says crooks are easy to catch because most future performance is based on past performance. They figure they got away with it one time so it must be a foolproof method.
Some suggest that it is a con. I prefer to think of it as charm. Texas Charm if you will.
