Wow, and for all these years there was me thinking that Len Terry designed it! :D

I met him in at a Shelby convention in Dearborn in the '80s. We had a great chat as we rode the elevator in the hotel, discussing my car and where we were from. He wanted to make sure we drove the car, as he disliked the trend of the cars being trailered.

He will be missed.
