Taking inspiration from Ford's success with social networks in promoting the soon to arrive Fiesta, Carroll Shelby decided to set up the so called "Shelby Nation," a portal dedicated to those who live and breathe Shelby. The portal includes all Shelby organizations and combines forums, videos, images, links and web pages. The Shelby Nation can be accessed from here.
“Over the past several months, the Carroll Shelby Foundation diligently researched social networking trends and found this fast moving arena to be very beneficial,” Jenni Shreeves, Carroll Shelby Foundation director said in a release.
“Shelby Nation provides a platform for those who want to celebrate Carroll’s achievements and help solidify his place as an American icon. That platform also allows us to communicate directly with all who support Carroll’s philanthropic vision."
Besides giving Shelby aficionados the opportunity to discuss with each other, Shelby Nation also provides direct links to all official Shelby websites: Carroll Shelby Foundation, Shelby Automobiles, Carroll Shelby Licensing, Carroll Shelby International, Carroll Shelby Engine Company, Team Shelby, Cleo Shelby Jewelry, Carroll Shelby Enterprises, Shelby Performance Parts and Carroll Shelby Engineering.
“Each Shelby company will respond to the needs of that individual. Shelby Nation is just an easy, comprehensive place to begin your Shelby journey,” John Luft, Shelby Licensing president concluded.
"To sum it up, Shelby Nation is a passionate celebration by those who fearlessly seek the ultimate in speed, adventure, innovation and charity. A lifestyle epitomized for decades by Carroll Shelby.”
