What most may not know, is that Las Vegas is home to one of racing’s all time legends. Carroll Shelby built his first Shelby Cobra” in 1962. That prototype vehicle sold at a Sotheby’s Auction in 2016 for $17.62 million dollars. In-fact, if you in the market the Shelby Center has Cobras on the floor for sale. Perhaps better known than the Shelby Cobra is the Ford Mustang Shelby Cobra. The Mustang Cobra first appeared in 1968 and was in production into the early eighties. Ford resurrected the Cobra Mustang in the 1990’s and they remain in production today.
