My father was part of the Ford Shelby group on the business side. Somewhere we have a photo with him and Carol Shelby and Lee Iacocca. I chuckled watching that film since he dressed exactly like the 1960's Ford corporate drones in the movie.
On another note he told me he almost bought one of the first Shelby's but cheaped out when he had nowhere to store it. It would have been worth its weight in gold now if he would have just pulled the trigger.

Christian Bale is an ass-hole. But a great character actor.

a friend of mine in high school in the mid sixties had a AC roadster which might’ve been used as one of the prototypes for the AC cobra.
