    Hey there. My company is doing a line of heritage apparel for Carroll Shelby, T-Shirts, Jackets and the like. All being made here in LA. Along with some of the more obvious logo branded shirts we are doing some that represent important milestones in the Shelby American Inc race history. Along with shirt comes a hang tag that depicts an image of the event, car or person. I am working with Shelby photographer Dave Friedman to fulfill this requirement but are coming up short on one or two.

    Missing are R-Models at speed or in race environments, and shots of Ken flying his R-Model at Green Valley Raceway Feb, 1965.

    I would love to speak to any of you who own any of the above photos and would be interested in licensing those for limited use.

    Regards,

    That particular picture has been sold as a reprint by the Shelby American Collection in Boulder.

    I am sure they would be pleased to help you..... ^_^

    I'm new to this forum (I've been a stalker for a while, reading posts), so I'm not sure how to post images. I have several pictures of R-models and other GT-350's, GT40's, Cobra's, 5 of the 6 Daytona Coupes and many others at Laguna Seca running at speed. I'd be happy to send you images if you're at all interested. They're all amateur 35mm shots. None of these are vintage photos; they're all of historic races taken within the last 7 years.

    Thanks for the offer it is much appreciated. Vintage shots are what I require, as a last resort I could rely on modern shots and my photoshop skills :)
