Wouldn't it be funny if it came out that she never worked for him at all?
+1 on should have contacted police if it was legit.
This never happens to poor people, someone always calls the police, not their attorney. :shrug:
Why wouldn't she find another job if it was so terrible working for him? Or report the rape to the frickin police? She's an idiot.
there isn't ANY proof that there was any skimming going on at his charity. there is PLENTY of proof that he sucks as a business man though(like the automotive branch crashing and burning until he brought in mattel's former CEO). fraud:nonono:That's odd, the only illegitimate thing I ever thought Shelby did was run a fraudulent charity,jmo.
1. SVT went after him - blame SVT for the huge price tag.Should have always kept it that way. I have more pride for SVT within Ford than an old man that just wants $ to attach his name to something.
Ford couldn't even use the gt40 nameplate on their Ford Gt, because Shelby wanted too much money.
I don't even think the guy is capable of such nonsense

2. "A British company, Safir Engineering, who made continuation GT40s in the 1980s owned the GT40 trademark at that time, and when they completed production, they sold the excess parts, tooling, design, and trademark to a small American company called Safir GT40 Spares based in Ohio. Safir GT40 Spares licensed the use of the GT40 trademark to Ford for the initial 2002 show car, but when Ford decided to make the production vehicle, negotiations between the two failed, and as a result the new Ford GT does not wear the badge GT40. It is rumored that Safir GT40 Spares asked $40 million dollars for the rights, but this has never been verified. The partners at Safir GT40 Spares state they have correspondence from Ford declining Safir's $8 million offer. Later models or prototypes have also been called the Ford GT but have had different numbering on them such as the Ford GT90 or the Ford GT70. The GT40 name is currently licensed for use by the Pathfinder Motorsports GT40/R Competition, which is built by Hi-Tech in South Africa, which also builds street version models of the GT40."
but hey, who cares about facts! shelby is a greedy old man!!!
Automotive legend Carroll Shelby -- the guy who designed the Ford Mustang Cobra -- has been sued by a former receptionist who claims the 88-year-old sexually assaulted her ... and also ignored her complaints when she told him she was raped by one of his employees.
According to the lawsuit, filed today in L.A. County Superior Court, Angelica Smith claims she began working for Shelby back in 2005 as a receptionist ... but was treated as a "personal servant" ... with Shelby often forcing her to go out on "grocery runs, liquor runs, pornography runs."
In the docs, Smith claims Shelby ran a "pervasively hostile work environment" ... and "on at least one occasion, Shelby himself sexually battered [Smith] by groping her" at his home.
Smith claims things got worse in December 2010, alleging she was drugged and raped at Shelby's home by a man who worked for Shelby.
Smith claims she reported the incident to Shelby himself -- but he "did not take any corrective action."
Instead, Smith claims, she was fired -- partly out of retaliation for reporting the rape to Shelby.
Smith is suing Shelby, Shelby's companies and the alleged rapist -- and she wants more than $5 million in damages.
QFT.... Ford is the one who went to HIM. Not the other way around. They wanted the "Shelby" name as a marketing tool. Of course he wanted a cut for them to use HIS name- duh!! wouldn't you?
Sheesh- if you all don't like products with the "Shelby" name don't buy it! It's not really all that complicated is it?:shrug:
lol at the liquor and porn 'runs' she was sent on. probably didn't bring the right kind of porn back
Dude was in his 80's....I don't believe it. He probably can't even get a boner anymore.
Really? So what about all the old people molesting kids? Just because he can't get it up doesn't mean he still can't be turned on.

my problem is the extent of the claims, not who the accused is. how anyone could think that this doesn't just sound absurd in the least is beyond me. sure, it's in the realm of possibility, but there is a shit load of stretching going on here.Who knows if it's true or not, but I think it's funny that people here think this guy wouldn't be capable of committing such a crime...
Go on to the registered sex offenders website and look at how many old, skevy, pervy guys are on there.
Yes, even your role models and heroes are not innocent.
