"Little Red was primarily configured with a supercharged 428 V8 and 3-speed automatic transmission"

The article goes on to note dual fuel pumps and that denotes the possibly pf Dual Paxton Superchargers. may have been fitted at one point. That isn't out of the question as Shelby did just that to 2 Cobra's, one for himself and the other for Bill Cosby. The Carol Shelby personally owned Twin Paxton Supercharger Cobra one was sold a few years ago, and the Cosby one was destroyed after he sold it(driver committed suicide in it) and someone is or has resurrected that wreck and it is not looked upon favorably within the Shelby community, or so I read.

Why isn’t the resto of the wrecked Shelby looked on as favorable? Is it the Cosby connection, or that someone committed suicide in it?
