Great read!  He said his Ferrari he bought when he was 50 was a lemon.

Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

So I was at an all Shelby car show in Santa Monica around 2003. It was raining but still there were about two dozen Shelby’s. After I had been there about 30 minutes a 1963 260 Cobra drove in and parked. Herbie Hancock’s daughter was driving. Herbie was in the passenger seat. It was pretty awesome.

its the only car equipped with a 260 and single two barrel carb as far as i know
Owned since 1971, now driven over 245,000 miles, makes me smile every time I drive it and it makes me feel 21 again.😎
