Welcome to the Shelby Experience! This site gives you, the enthusiast, the opportunity to share your stories and photos with fellow enthusiasts. You can read about the experiences of others and gain insight into the rich history of Carroll Shelby and his cars.

What was it like to drive a brand new Shelby GT500 off the dealer lot in 1967? How does it feel to drift through the chicane at Laguna Seca in a Cobra Daytona Coupe? What happened when a rental car company let its customers "rent-a-racer" in 1966? Or how about 40 years later, 2006? Could a little Shelby GLHS really outrun every other car of its day? Hopefully you, the Shelby enthusiast, will share these stories with all of us.


We're interested in stories about ANY make or model influenced or built by Carroll Shelby, Shelby American, or Shelby Automobiles. Carroll says "There are literally hundreds of models out there that I've been involved with over the past 40+ years, so let's begin assembling a repository of Shelby experiences right away. It should be fun!"

We have created this repository, now it's up to you to contribute your stories and photos. There is no membership necessary. Just click the "WRITE" button to begin or the "READ" button to read existing stories!
