Carroll Shelby Cal Baseball Day at University of California, Berkeley Proves a Success, to Become Annual Tradition
Business Wire Carroll Shelby International
February 18, 2014 12:59 PM

GARDENA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Carroll Shelby International (CSBI.PK), the parent company of Carroll Shelby Licensing and Shelby American, announced today that the first annual Carroll Shelby Cal Baseball, which was held on Saturday, Feb. 15, 2014, at Evans Diamond located on the campus of the University of California, Berkeley, was a success. It will become an annual event beginning in 2015.

“The Carroll Shelby Cal Baseball Day was a testament of the excitement that surrounds the Shelby brand,” said Ari Kopmar, executive vice president of consumer initiatives. “We successfully bridged America’s favorite performance car with America’s favorite past time in a way that’s never been done before. Not only was our reception strong among Shelby and Ford enthusiasts, but the support from the baseball fans and university students was tremendous. We’re excited about making the Carroll Shelby Cal Baseball Day an annual tradition.”

A special “Show and Shine” car exhibit was located outside the stadium and featured Shelby and Ford-powered cars owned by Team Shelby members and Ford enthusiasts from across northern California. Among the featured Ford Shelby Mustangs was Mark Lopez’s ’66 Shelby GT350, which has been owned by his family since they purchased it in 1967. It was originally sold by Shelby American to Competition Press, who then sold it to the Lopez family.

“I was a little apprehensive about hosting a Team Shelby event in conjunction with a college baseball game,” said Michael McGuirk, president of the California Team Shelby region. “However, Carroll Shelby Cal Baseball Day turned out to be a spectacular event that Shelby and baseball fans alike fully embraced. The Shelby and Ford ‘Show and Shine’ generated a lot of foot traffic and exposed the Shelby brand to a younger demographic. The support our Team Shelby chapter received from Carroll Shelby International was phenomenal.”

In addition to the “Show and Shine,” Carroll Shelby Cal Baseball Day was kick started with a special video presentation about Carroll Shelby and his contribution to American muscle car performance. Neil Cummings, co-CEO of Carroll Shelby International and a trustee for the Carroll Shelby Foundation, threw the opening pitch for the first double header game; Joe Conway, Co-CEO of Carroll Shelby International and CEO of Shelby American, threw the opening pitch for the second game. Shelby merchandise including apparel, die cast collectibles and remote control cars were used as prizes during the game. An animated race video featuring a Shelby Super Snake GT500, Shelby Daytona Coupe and Shelby Cobra was also created for the event and will be shown at games throughout the season.

Dates for the 2015 Carroll Shelby Cal Baseball Day are still being considered.

To celebrate the birth of the 289 Ford powered roadsters, Shelby American will offer 50 limited edition …

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

In 1964, Shelby American, today a wholly owned subsidiary of Carroll Shelby International Inc. (CSBI:PK) introduced the FIA version of the small block Cobra, which competed in the 1964 World Manufacturers Championship series against marques like Aston Martin, Jaguar and Corvette. To celebrate the birth of the 289 Ford powered roadsters, Shelby American will offer 50 limited edition continuation (CSX7000) Shelby 289 FIA Cobras. Each will be painted “Viking Blue” with FIA stripes and roundels, feature a black FIA interior, special billet anniversary badges, original style wheels and a variety of additional options. The 50th Anniversary FIA Shelby Cobra will be introduced at the annual Barrett-Jackson Auction in Scottsdale, Ariz, on Friday, Jan. 17, 2014.

“The 289 FIA Shelby Cobras were among the most important cars in American racing history,” said John Luft, president of Shelby American. “The FIA Cobras built during that period were piloted by racing legends including Ken Miles, Dan Gurney, Phil Hill and Bob Bondurant. Thus, some of the most revered drivers in the sport put the 289 FIA Cobra into the winner’s circle. Combining a robust, powerful American engine with a lightweight chassis was sheer brilliance. Shelby’s formula still resonates today and is followed by automakers worldwide.”

Shelby American built the 289 FIA Cobras for racing; modifications included a new dash, widened front and rear fenders, cut-back doors, new dampers, racing wheels featuring the pin-drive hub, oil cooler scoops and a competition spec 289 small block engine.

Today, the CSX7000 Continuation Shelby Cobra 289 FIA’s are component vehicles that can be fitted with a proper drive train by a customer or automotive professional. Each car is built to order and delivered as a rolling chassis, less drive train, with a Shelby American issued MSO.

“Our CSX7000 cars incorporate safety and performance improvements, without sacrificing driving excitement or originality,” added Vince LaViolette, senior designer and head of R&D at Shelby American. “With a small block V8 pushing only 2,100 lbs., it’s the lightest Cobra ever built with an incredible power-to-weight ratio. This allows the small block Cobra to dive deep into corners and pull through with incredible precision and accuracy.”

The Continuation Shelby Cobra 289 FIA vehicles retain everything from the authentic style suspension to the graceful body lines, but are upgraded to contemporary standards. Shelby American uses modern disc brakes, a stronger frame and the bodies are available in either aluminum or fiberglass. The 50th Anniversary Edition also features a complete exhaust for a small block Ford V8, a special fitted car cover and optional detachable steering wheel.

“The importance and historical significance of these cars was the fact that they brought a small shop in Southern California to the forefront of international racing on two continents within the same year,” said Shelby Expert and SAAC Member Jeff Gagnon. “Shelby American took it to Ferrari, Corvette and other well-supplied, well-funded and established race teams and manufacturers. That was no small feat, even in those simpler times.”

The 50th Anniversary CSX7000 FIA Continuation Cobra will begin at $94,995 for a fiberglass or $159,995 for an aluminum bodied car, excluding drive train. Each will be documented in our ‘World Registry’ by Shelby American. Cobras can be purchased through a network of Shelby American Cobra dealers. Information about options and availability can be found at http://www.shelbyamerican.com/50fia.asp.

Shelby GT unveiled at the LA Auto Show. Available in 430 HP naturally aspirated, 525 HP or 624 HP GT/SC …

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Shelby American, a wholly owned subsidiary of Carroll Shelby International Inc. (CSBI:PK), returned one of its most popular cars to the lineup today by unveiling the Shelby GT at the LA Auto Show. The new generation Shelby GT is based on the 2014 Ford Mustang GT with an incredibly attractive base price and 430 HP. The optional Shelby GT/SC supercharged model comes in either a 525 HP or a staggering 624 HP version, making it the most potent version of the car ever made.

“The Shelby GT was one of the most important vehicles in modern day Shelby history,” said John Luft, president of Shelby American. “It kicked off Shelby’s rebirth in Las Vegas by putting a Mustang-based small block car into Ford dealerships. Ever since the Shelby GT went out of production, people have clamored for its return.”

In 2007, Ford Division, Carroll Shelby and Ford Racing created the Shelby GT. Beginning as 4.6L Mustang GT’s assembled at Ford’s Flat Rock, Mich. plant, they were shipped to Shelby in Las Vegas for transformation. The 320 HP 2007 Shelby GT coupes were all Performance White or Black with silver stripes. In 2008, Shelby added Vista Blue and a choice of coupe or convertible. About 8,000 Shelby GT’s were built.

The Shelby GT was wildly popular and the people who snagged one have been one of the most passionate owner groups. The cars were often tailored with custom parts to fit an owner’s personality and then driven hard on both the street and track. The Shelby GT totally dominated its SCCA racing class in 2007 and 2008.

“Based on the standard Mustang GT, the total cost of our entry-level 2014 Shelby GT is only about $45,000, yet offers so much more than the previous model,” said, Gary Patterson, Shelby American VP of Sales. “The performance-to-price ratio makes the Shelby GT perfect for any serious pony car enthusiast.”

The new Shelby GT is a post-title program; Ford dealers send a customer’s Mustang GT coupe or convertible to Shelby for upfit. Every material performance aspect of the car is enhanced or replaced to create a potent, balanced performer worthy of the Shelby name. Entry-level package upgrades include a Ford Racing suspension, Shelby branded exhaust, intake and engine tune for 430 HP, specially designed wheels and tires, short shifter, hood and Le Mans stripes that make it uniquely Shelby. Every Shelby GT version is 50 state emissions legal and runs on pump gas.

One of the car’s most appealing aspects is the opportunity for personalization. Choosing from an array of options, customers can opt for a more hard-edged suspension, better braking and supercharger upgrades, as well as a vast selection of performance and styling parts from Shelby Performance Parts.

“While the Shelby GT is very affordable for such an exclusive vehicle, a post title program allows us to take performance to new levels,” said Shelby American VP of Production, Gary Davis. “Working with partners like Ford Racing, it is docile enough to be a daily driver and still dominate the track on the weekends.”

The 624 HP Shelby GT/SC version is expected to blast from 0-60 mph in about 3.7 seconds; the quarter mile time should be in the mid 11 second range. The car should also pull over 1 G on the lateral skid-pad.

“No other carmaker offers this level of performance, heritage and iconic styling at this price, making the Shelby GT the best all-around American car in its class,” said Luft. “Each car will be issued a Shelby American CSM number for documentation in our Shelby American Worldwide Registry to help maximize potential future value.”

The price of the base Shelby GT package, not including the car, is $14,995, making a nicely equipped car about $45,000 in total. The Shelby GT/SC package begins at $27,995. Customers can build their Shelby GT online at www.shelbyamerican.com/2014shelbygt.

Since the early 1960s, Carroll Shelby has built some of the fastest, most outrageous automobiles ever to hit the streets. Yet the real reason he's a household name today is that he backed up his street creds with race wins. In fact, when the Shelby American company was formed, it was with the intention of winning GT races against the all-conquering Ferraris. Here's a short history on some of his more notable comp cars


The Shelby American story starts in 1962 with the legendary Cobra. No sooner had Shelby finished the first prototype to show Ford what it had been spending its money on then he started fabricating the first Cobra racing car. It was a quick-and-dirty race-prep job with a mildly modified Ford 260-inch engine, 16-inch wire wheels, a roll bar and some minor beefing-up. Sporting less than 275 hp, it didn't seem like much compared to a 375-hp fuel-injected Corvette—until the flag fell!

[Papa Bear]

I LOVE THE MISSION STATEMENT OF THIS ORGANIZATION!

“To create high performance machines and products that connect human beings to their passion. Their power. Their love of driving. And to their individuality. It is our focused intent to make the Shelby name represent something meaningful and inspiring. To make the Shelby name synonymous with the highest level of uniform quality and standards. Building upon our racing heritage. History. And Mythology. Broadening the Shelby experience to become a part of our global culture. And, in the process, giving Shelby a niche no one else can occupy."

[Papa Bear]

All Shelby Cobras are offered through a proprietary network of dealers in North America and Europe. Shelby Automobiles also sells aftermarket styling and performance parts under the Carroll Shelby Performance Parts brand name. In addition, Shelby Automobiles has produced a limited number of pre and post title new model year Ford Shelby Mustangs through its partnership with Ford Motor Company. These models include Shelby GT-H, Shelby GT, Shelby GT500 KR, and the continued production of the Shelby GT500’s by Ford Motor Company.

[Papa Bear]

Carroll Shelby International, Inc. (CSBI.PK) has two wholly owned subsidiaries, Shelby Automobiles, Inc., Carroll Shelby Licensing, Inc., called the Shelby Companies. Together, the Shelby Companies are engaged in the manufacturing and marketing of performance vehicles and related accessories as well as the licensing of the Shelby brand to third parties in connection with various products, including vehicles, memorabilia, video games, models, toys, branded apparel, styling and performance parts.

[Papa Bear]

Carroll Shelby’s name is synonymous with performance. From the initial production of the first Shelby Cobra in the 1960’s to the recent announcement of teaming with Ford Motor Company to develop specialty vehicles, Carroll Shelby continues to participate in the development of high performance automobiles.

Shelby Terlingua Racing Team to Celebrate Rebirth with "Bullrun" Blowout in Its Texas Birthplace
Carroll Shelby Invites Enthusiasts to Join Him at Event

Copyright Business Wire 2008
View Additional ProfilesLAS VEGAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Shelby Automobiles Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Carroll Shelby International Inc., (Pink Sheets: CSBI), Carroll Shelby and designer/artist Bill Neale are celebrating the rebirth of the famous Terlingua Racing Team with the first annual "Shelby Bullrun Challenge" in West Texas on Sept. 25-28, 2008. The event includes a combination of driving events and parties for celebrities and enthusiasts that will rival the ones that gave rise to the Terlingua legend 40 years ago.

"We created the Shelby Terlingua Racing Team so our small group of rebels could have some real fun," noted Carroll Shelby, founder of Shelby Automobiles. "Now, I'm inviting a new generation to return with me for a weekend they'll always remember."

The Shelby Bullrun Challenge is open to any enthusiast in an original Shelby vehicle (including a Cobra, Series 1, GT350, GT500, Shelby GT, Dodge GL-H, Tiger, etc.), a Ford GT or Mustang. Activities will include a challenging 350 mile rally, an open road 12 mile time trial, a competitive driving course on an airstrip and a 1/2 mile drag race in the Big Bend area. Other activities will include a car show, hole-in-one golf competition, Texas "shootout", chili cook off and autograph sessions with Mr. Shelby.

"This will be an exceptional automotive event deep in the heart of Texas," added Amy Boylan, president of Shelby Automobiles. "The Shelby Bullrun Challenge is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be part of a small, intimate group with celebrities like Tom Yeager and Bill Neale, who was a co-founder of the group. And we're going to have high octane fun with some of the most fantastic cars on earth. We're even bringing some new Terlingua Racing Team supercharged Shelby Mustangs to test out."

The Terlingua Racing Team's roots began when Ford Motor Company asked Carroll Shelby to turn its Mustang into a race winner. His team created a competition version of the Shelby GT350 for that purpose. About that time, Shelby and a few close friends including Bill Neale, Dave Witts, Tom Tierney and David E. Davis, Jr., were enjoying the Terlingua area of the Texas Rio Grande region. Thumbing their nose at the establishment, they lived hard and enjoyed life to its fullest between winning races.

As a symbol of their lifestyle, Neale designed a logo that is black and yellow, with a rabbit holding his paw in the air. That livery, along with a host of performance enhancements are now part of a Shelby Automobiles post title package for the V6 Ford Mustang and current production Shelby Cobras.

"Though the Terlingua Racing Team flew under the radar after Shelby stopped building GT350s and GT500s in the 1960s, its flying high again today," noted Neale. "With Shelby Autos creating Terlingua Racing Team edition versions of the Ford Mustang and Cobra, it was time to bring back some of the extracurricular activities that make racing, and life, so much more meaningful."

The event package includes a stay at the Lajitas Resort, one of the most exclusive locations in the Southwest, all meals, drivers' welcoming dinner, final awards party, charity auction for special Terlingua and Shelby memorabilia and exclusive Team Shelby gifts. The price for the weekend is $2,500 (based on two drivers in shared accommodation). The package also includes a Team Shelby membership.

Carroll Shelby Automotive Technology Center Launched at Northeast Texas Community College
Applications for Program Chair Now Being Accepted

Copyright Business Wire 2008
View Additional ProfilesDALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--

Carroll Shelby, chairman and founder of Carroll Shelby International Inc. (Pink Sheets:CSBI), and Northeast Texas Community College have created the new Carroll Shelby Automotive Technology Center to offer young people an opportunity to learn valuable skills in the automotive field. The program will include a state-of-the-art facility and instruction in automotive and body repair.

The Carroll Shelby Automotive Technology Program is expected to enroll the first class in Fall 2008. This intensive, hands-on program is designed to train mechanics to enter the workforce immediately upon graduation.

"I want to help young people improve their lives through the industry that has been so good to me," said Mr. Shelby. "By giving them valuable new skills, they can be proud, productive members of society."

The program will be housed in a new automotive facility which features a climate controlled shop space, lifts, paint booth, three classrooms with roll-up doors to bring in cars, office and shower/changing rooms. The curriculum will include real-life experience, as students will build an automobile during their last semester. The goal is for these cars to be autographed by Mr. Shelby and sold. Proceeds of the sale will be used to help sustain the program.

The college is actively seeking a program Chair. That individual will be charged with building on the current programs, which include the AAS degree in Automotive Repair, an Auto Body Repair program offering a one year certificate or a two year AAS degree and a Diesel program offering three certificates and a two-year AAS degree.

"This gift is truly a unique opportunity for NTCC," noted Dr. Herbert Riedel, NTCC Vice President for Instruction and Student Development. "The partnership with Mr. Shelby will allow us to build a world-class automotive program in Northeast Texas. It will be invaluable to our college, our region, and most importantly, to our students."

Northeast Texas Community College has served students since 1985 in a beautiful wooded, rural setting. University-bound students have a full range of quality course offerings with many extras, such as athletics intramurals, a film series, and world-class musical performances. Through partnerships with Texas A&M University - Texarkana, Texas A&M University - Commerce and The University of Texas at Tyler, students can complete a bachelor's degree in education, nursing, and social work at NTCC.

In addition to the credited program, the partnership will also include various continuing education opportunities for community members. Other future projects could also include the creation of a Shelby Automobiles modification center and a test track on the NTCC campus.

Mr. Shelby and his companies will contribute a minimum of $525,000. These funds will be designated for student scholarships and support of the program. Other sponsors are expected to join the program. Additional information is available at www.ntcc.edu.

This is the first factory race initiative from Shelby Autos and Ford Motor Company since 1969.

"Ford and Shelby made racing history once, so it's very exciting to come full circle again," said Carroll Shelby. "Now we're going to make history again together. My goal is to return us to professional racing and this is just the beginning."

The Kohler International Challenge with Brian Redman is one of the largest vintage gatherings in the USA with over 30 classes of cars in ten groups. Sanctioned by the Sportscar Vintage Racing Association, the event features vintage race cars competing on Road America, the world's fastest permanent road course. Tom Barnard, Vincent Dean, AC and Tim Korzen will pilot four CSX4000 427 Cobras in Group 10.

"The partnership between Ford and Shelby put the blue oval in the winners circle in everything from SCCA races to LeMans," said Robert Parker, manager of Ford Car Marketing. "We're proud to sponsor the Shelby team for the Road America Races and look forward to participating side by side with our fans and consumers."

Shelby cars dominated the racing scene during the 1960's through its own efforts or factory support of private teams. The 289 and 427 Cobras won road racing and drag racing championships worldwide while Ford Shelby Mustangs trounced sedan teams under the Shelby banner.

"It was never a matter of if, but when Shelby would make it back to the track," added Amy Boylan, president of Shelby Automobiles. "Thanks to our relationship with Ford, we're evaluating all of our options for a racing program. I look forward to bringing home championships again."

Carroll Shelby, one of America's greatest race car drivers, dominated sports car racing in the mid-1950s. His crowning achievement as a driver came in 1959, when he won the 24 hours of Le Mans. Upon retiring from racing, Shelby forged a relationship with Ford and founded Shelby American to create the Cobra sports car. Today his company, Shelby Automobiles, continues to build the Cobra as a component vehicle in the 289 street car, FIA and 427 S/C models.

Hello

[pitadog]

GM OHIOFOG, doing a bit of research on CSBI and just can't find anything recent. Could you tell me what happened to this stock? Are they still a pink, delisted, or what? tia...dog

[sinjin1952]

It has been pointed out to me that the link in my previous post regarding CSBI hiring a PR firm has expired and doesn't work.

Try this for the same press release:

[sinjin1952]

OK, Shelby has hired a PR firm:

http://news.yahoo.com/s/prweb/20070323/bs_prweb/prweb513490

So where's the PR?

When will we hear some PR that will let people know how well the Comapny is doing and hopefully get the share price moving?

Regards,

[shelbyfan]

[sinjin1952]

I understand:
As mentioned in previous posts, I have a business in the same Industrial park as Shelby, we are not far apart, so I am able to monitor daily activity. I will email you privately to let you know where I am and am interested in your input.

Best Regards,

[shelbyfan]

[sinjin1952]

Hey Shelbyfan:
Just wondering, is there a reason you don't care to post your info, input etc. on this board for the benefit of all interested?

Regards,

[shelbyfan]

I too cannot understand why this is happening. Doesnt make much since to me either. I am also an amateur investor, and am having trouble understanding the whole bid/ask price also. If SINJIN or anyone else would like to discuss shelby stock, please send me an email at [e-mail] and I'll tell ya what i know, plus my thoughts and feelings.

[sinjin1952]

So Shelby is finally doing more business than ever, why is the price per share declining? And can someone tell me whay this stock has such a big bid/ask spread?

Regards,

[OHIOFOG]

Well, all I can say is, is if you bought in at .35 as of today the 6th, then WE GOT OUR MONEY BACK! Bout time!!

[OHIOFOG]

Just call your local branch and place the order, and they will gladly do it for you. I'm with Scottrade.

[sinjin1952]

So I drove by shelby's Building on the way home from work today, and stopped and asked the guys working around Mustangs in their back lot: "How many completed cars are you shipping each day"? Their answer was 60. The receiving lot of incoming Mustangs is still full with cars arriving daily. Supposed to be 800 or so in that lot.

Regards.

[dffhogs]

I didn't call but i'm pretty sure you can place an order that way. I'm at work and will not take the time to call it in.

[sinjin1952]

I tried Scottrade too with a low limit order just to test and got the following message:

"Buys are not allowed for this security. Please call your local branch to place the order."

If you do call the local branch can you trade?

Trades are showing on the market.

Regards,

[dffhogs]

I tried to enter a buy order through Scottrade this morning and was give a message "online buys are not permited for this stock, please call your broker"

When did this happen?

[sinjin1952]

Shelby is moving Mustangs! I am new here and I am a Shelby Stockholder. My business is located at the Speedway Commerce Center, the same industrial park where Shelby is located. About 100 yards from my front door is the FULL parking lot where the Mustangs are being delivered & stored. I spoke to the watchman on site who told me the parking lot contained about 800 cars. Car Carrier trucks are arriving daily. This should get Shelby moving as a Company.

I am not a experienced investor, but could someone tell me who hires the so called "Market Maker" that sets the bid/ask price?

I think one reason the stock isn't moving is the wide bid/ask spread which closed today at .30/.35 I think. That means if you buy at .35 and turn around and try to sell, you've lost 15% immediately at .30 bid.

I think this is one reason so few trades occur.

Another reason is that I've seen no real press from Shelby lately that should get trades going. They can do PR about their new Motor Cycle, but where's the hype about the Mustangs?

I attended the Corp. Annual stockholders meeting in Dec. and asked these questions, but received no satisfactory answers.

With what's going on at Shelby, the stock should start moving, but what will it take?

Any opinions here?

Thanks & Regards.

As a new member to this forum, I would like to say that Shelby has a ton of new things comming down the pipe, and they are all amazing. The new SGT will be on showroom floors in Jan., and this will be the first of many to come. Everything that what written in the previous post are true, and the company is defiantely turning the corner for the better. The new management has done more in 1 year then the old management did in the 6-7 years prior. I do believe that this stock is more of a long term buy, and hold thing though, but I do believe that the shareholders will be very thankfull down the road. I have been with the company for quite some time and have never felt better about the future of Shelby, and its brandname.
PS,...yes, I do own shares( a sizeable amount..), and no, I wont be selling anytime soon.

Good for us. Got my shares socked away.
