Found some Shelby books

I was recently in Hawaii for a couple of weeks for a holiday with the family and while in Maui found a second hand book shop in a shopping mall. I asked if they had any car books and the assistant took me down to the back of the shop and showed me where there were some auto books. The area was not marked and would not have been easy to find otherwise. I found 3 Shelby books which were in as new condition. One of them was the Shelby American Guide which even had a couple of original postcard pictures inside that came with the book. When I opened it up I saw it had been autographed by the author Richard Kopec as well as Carroll Shelby. What a great find. I couldn't buy it fast enough along with the other 2.

There were also 3 or 4 AC Cobra books which I now regret not buying as well.

Nice find mwizz and some good reading in them , i have 2 of them but not the buyers guide or the autographs
.. the autographs themselves would have been worth the purchase price ,
