Shelby Cobra/Mustang book - author seeking 'fresh art'

Wallace Wyss, historian and author of Shelby's Wildlife: the Cobras
and the
Mustangs, reports that he is revising his book Shelby's Wildlife: the
Cobras and the
Mustangs.

He told me he is seeking "fresh art" not seen before and invites
anyone with pictures of Shelby as driver ('54 to '60) or of
Shelby-American
team drivers (or even independents) racing Cobras and Shelby Mustangs
(and
Trans-Am Mustangs run by Shelby Racing Co.) to contact him and
describe what
they have so arrangements can be made to squeeze their artwork into
the
book. He is also looking for any colorful humorous anecdotes anyone
wants to
tell involving racing against Shelby, racing for Shelby, Shelby as
racer, Shelby
as businessman, his famous social life, etc.

He invites anyone to contact him at

I've just been reading this book. It really gives detail and essence
of what determined many of Shelby's choices and actions in building
and selling Cobra and Mustanges under his name.

Another automotive writer said the 1977 book was due for a revision,
and I understand from Wyss that it is well under way. I know of at
least one contributor who has forwarded original photos for evaluation

Wyss asks for terms of use on photography, and will pay market rates
for appropriate material, with a free copy of the book for all
contributions.

Got anything good out there?
