    I saw the Green Hornet today. It's up on a rack in the back garage at the Barret Jackson showroom in Scottsdale AZ. I told the xsales guy I was a Shelby fan and he said come with me. he takes me out back and he shows me the Green Hornet EXP 500 and then proceeds to point out the 1st 1965 GT350, the one Carroll gave to the Jackson family. The car is signed by Carrol to the Jacksons daughter they named "Shelby". Below these cars (they were on their own lifts) were two original 427 Cobras.

    I had an extra hour before I had to leave for the airport so I just stopped in. I left with a crap in my pants, didn't expect the Green Hornet to be sitting there, wow, very cool visit.

    very cool visit! boy if Carroll gave out a Shelby to every fan who named his Daughter "SHELBY", this years production would be SOLD OUT to him alone!
