Hey all, please have a look at this link from Club Cobra that I started over there: http://www.clubcobra.com/forums/showthread.php?p=902042#post902042

This is something I'm trying to put together for the Carrol Shelby Children's Foundation. As mentioned when I joined, I try to donate a piece here or there and will also be donating something for racing 2 save lives soon.

I would need help getting this out there and to get a feeler of interest to get it rolling. I'd like to try to help them and see what we can all do for them for a good cause.

STL Mark - please contact me...

Contact Info

Darrell,
I think your best path for contact would be Amy Boylan. She is Carroll's right hand. Very unlikely you'd speak to him. To my knowledge, she is at the Las Vegas facilty, but I am not 100% sure on that. She is president of the organization and as high as you get without speaking to Carroll directly.

You can also get to them off the contact page at carrollshelby.com

A couple thoughts you might consider:\

1) There is a charity auction at the London Cobra show

2) More closer to home, you might consider using your idea as part of the 2009 Run'N Gun event. You could discuss this with Dean Lampe (I think you and he are in contact already?)

Thanks for the info Paul. Yes, I just got off the phone with the foundation and we're trying to see what can happen here. They're not entirely sure if I need the Shelby brand licensing or not, since it's going to be a donated original. However, the reproduction prints pose another question about licensing. I was planning on donating 25% of sales of prints if I can make the whole thing happen.
Would you happen to have Amy's number handy or any way to contact? The office I have spoken to a few times was out in CA. For trying to give something back you sure have to run through a lot of hoops!
Oh and yes, I spoke with Dean last week sometime but I'm sure he's been busy with the holidays and everything else. I needed to ask him some things about Run 'N Gun too.
