Remembering Ed Hugas and the First Cobra

[TA Coupe]

I was surfing the Web and came across this interesting story that was written a few weeks ago that I didn't know anything about before today.

I think the Hugas deal evaporated about the time Ford started slipping blank checks under Shelby's door. If I remember there was some money owed to Hugas and CS wanted to build his company not contract out work or share in the profits.

Nice book on him out there, seems to have been a really good guy and driver.  Shelby seems to have not treated him well.

(his name is spelled HUGUS)
