New Shelby book coming out

[bitzman]

Not by me, tho.
Here's all I know to date, fidning out facts piecemeal
Title: Shelby Cars in Detail
Price: $149.95
Publisher: David Bull

As far as page length, amount devoted to Cobra vs. Shelby Mustang vs. race cars, don't know yet. And I don't know if it will include the Chrysler front drive cars (which some Shelby fans don't like to read about)

Waiting for review copy.

As far as I know this is the most expensive Shelby book ever to come out
and I hope the pictures and scholarship in research match the price....

This book is a photo tour of the Shelby Museum in Boulder.

Though the sticker price is $149.50 somewhere I saw the book
listed for less, closer to $100, so apparently the big chains that will carry
it will be offering it at a discount.

This is true of most books except those privately distributed, always regret not buying Cobra Daytona coupes published by George Stauffer when it was $100, now it's rumored to be $750 on the net

The only references I could find on him was that he wrote an introduction to a book about driving an antique Mercedes around the world and won a prize for an article in Mercedes Benz' STAR magazine about a 1939 G4 (which I believe is a huge car/truck used by military brass).
Anyway the author's name ought to help you order the book. Sorry to deliver this info so piecemeal, I have a feeling the book hasn't made its official debut yet but will hope to find it at the David Bull Publishing tent on the "midway" (row of tents) at the Monterey Historic
