| Yup, I have a buddy who used to Pro-Rally a GLH.. until they came out with the Turbo GLH. Dodge had a few go-fast goodies for those cars too..

You also never read-about a 'slow' Shelby-powered car. Care to guess what 'GLH' stands for?
Goes Like Hell.
I even liked his Chili.....Lashdeep can attest to that.....

Let's not forget that Shelby was *also* aligned with manufacturers other than Ford - anyone remember the "Shelby" Dodge Omni GLH (and others of its ilk)? I don't think Shelby was picky about who he worked with, so long as his name was on a product and he got paid for it. Admittedly, I did not watch these shows, but I really have to wonder about how much of the "go fast" engineering he really did (if any), at least on the later products that bore his name... (or is "none" too obvious???) FWIW. gp
