Books about the Shelby Cobra, Mustangs and Other Other Models
Cobra - The First 40 Years
This book tells the complex saga of a sports car that was
created as a result of an unlikely collaboration between Ford
Motor Company. Carroll Shelby and AC Cars, who came
together to create a car called the Cobra, based on the AC
Ace Roadster. When the Shelby Cobra was created, it was far
from state of the art, but the use of a new series of Ford V8
engines saw the lightweight car annihilate American sports
car racing. By adding aerodynamic bodywork, the Daytona
Cobra Coupe arrived in Europe and took victory in the GT
category in 1965, making Shelby American the first (and only)
USA based manufacturer to achieve this feat. This is the story
of the Cobra.

Cobra and Shelby Mustang 1962-2007 Photo Archive
In recent years, interest in the cars created by
Shelby-American has increased dramatically. Shelby
Mustangs and Cobras--with just over 1,000 made--are
becoming impossible to find. The result is that clones have
appeared of each and there is intense competition among
replica owners to see whose replica will end up being most
faithful to the originals. This book shows not only the
originals, but also shows in detail the creativity shown by
replica Shelby and Cobra owners in modifying their cars in an
attempt to capture the spirit of the originals.

Shelby Mustang Ultimate Portfolio 1965-1970
When Carroll Shelby gave up motor racing in 1960, he

and in doing so established Shelby American Inc. in Los
Angeles. The first of the magnificent AC Cobras appeared in
1962 and went on to dominate SCCA A-Production racing for
most of the 1960s. Production stopped in 1970 and in recent
years Shelby Mustangs have become very collectable. This
portfolio includes 52 articles sourced from leading automotive
magazine and covering the GT350, R, S, Hertz, Rally Car,
GT500, and KR.

Ford GT40 and GT Ultimate Portfolio 1964-2006
Built to take on Ferrari at Le Mans, the GT40 began its race
career in 1964 and continued into the 70s. It was 1966 when
Henry Ford's dream was realized when three GT40s finished
1-2-3 at Le Mans. Although the GT40 continued to be raced
after 1967 it was with private teams rather than from Ford itself,
where it became a legend in its own lifetime. Recently Ford
has produced a limited volume modern-day replica - forty
years young and still a magnet for enthusiasts whenever seen
at a motoring event. This book is the story of the GT40 and
contains a collection of road tests, model introduction articles
and driving impressions. Included are full pecifications and
history.
