Yeah, I geezered out. I rewatchef that episode. It was 360 pounds in today's money that roughly means 450 mil dollars today or by my math 50 mil in the 60's. 30 million is what I remember as a teenager, being told by an old hotroder. I'll wear the ass hat today!
I did some reading as I never really knew what costs manufacturers spent on development and a typical new car is up to $6B(today)! After reading that I believed it. Haha
I cant understand how its that damn expensive. Must be a lot of throw away shit like lawyer fees and patents
Dont forget Carol Shelby will be a racist.
Seems like a good idea for a movie to me.

The Terminator project was 8 billion. 77% of it was put in 2nd to 3rd gear change project
Go Like Hell was a good read too
These documentaries are actually on Amazon Prime Video not Netflix. I have both and I should have confirmed before I made my post. I just edited to reflect this.

So stoked for this. All my friends will want to ride in the Shelby now....I..
I think so too. Can’t wait.
I can help you with that. I'm listening to “Go Like Hell: Ford, Ferrari, and Their Battle for Speed and Glory at Le Mans” by AJ Baime, narrated by Jones Allen on Audible. It’s an awesome story! It makes me really pumped to see this movie when it’s out in theaters!!!
Was just coming to post this......this looks incredible
