    Wow! what a display.
    I wish there was a 360 degree walkthrough exposition video for us folk who can't (in the near future) make a trip there in person.
    Thank you for your efforts in preserving these gems and giving us a peek look.

    This place is Mecca for Shelby lovers! I have been to visit several times and will definitely stop by again next time I'm in the area. Besides the cars there is a stunning amount of memorabilia and rare photos, you can spend hours there and still not take it all in. A must see for all auto lovers!

    Steve Volk has done a magnificent job assembling this collection of Shelbys. I used to leave nearby and enjoyed going to the museums annual fund-raising party. Steve always had Carroll Shelby, as well as many of the drivers including the late Bob Bondurant, and Phil Hill, amongst many others. On Carroll's last visit his health wasn't up to his normal gregarious self, and Steve, you invited me to over to spend a few moments with him and swap some stories I had with him over the years. Those are very fond memories for both my wife and me. Next time I'm back in Colorado I will make a point to come by.

    I tried my hardest to buy a Cobra in the 60's, but I wasn't born until 1988. My replica keeps a permanent smile on my face though. Also building a 65 Sunbeam.

    I couldn't help but laugh at that near the end. And what a collection. My dad would have loved to have seen this because he was always a huge Shelby fan. Really cool video, though it also makes me a little sad since it makes me think of my dad.

    I don't get it, I love cars, any car but to make a museum to celebrate Shelby Mustangs only, how boring is that?
