4.0 out of 5 stars
Freidman's 1989 Shelby book.,
By
This review is from: Cobra (Motorbooks Classics) (Paperback)
I had the opportunity at the local library to read the book and look at it, Being a Corvette Guy, I really don't care for Fords. But Friedman's Pictures are great as well as his writing. The book I picked up, If I am not mistaken was the 1989? Hardcover, with Yellow Cobra on the Cover. Shelby American Original Color Archives, Since Dave was the Official photographer for shelby you get a good look behind the scenes, I recommend this book and Trevor Legate's book. Of course Being A Corvette Man, My Favorite Book is Friedman's Grand Sport, Which To me was the Cobra Killer.
