Remember the old adage about find a job you love and it will never seem like going to work? Carroll Shelby epitomizes that ideal. I envy him for the wonderful life he led, enjoying every minute of it.

If only we all could be so lucky!

“I’m a sucker for old cars.”

If so, you should check out this old school muscle car dealership in Des Moines, Iowa. American Dream Machines:

They have some awesome metal there!

Thanks for the reminder. I live about a mile from there and had thought about going over to see it.
