This stunning limited edition 2007 SHELBY HERTZ convertible awaits you in Sunny So Cal! Have fun and turn heads in this gorgeous black and gold Shelby Hertz. This RARE LOW, LOW MILEAGE car has never been hit and has no dents or dings.
The cloth convertible top is in perfect condition. We have the matching cloth boot, which many of these cars do not have. The interior is in perfect condition. The exterior paint has a few tiny chips on the door edges from its rental days, but NO dents or dings.
As you can see, the car has been signed by Carroll himself! Well, not really. We did add vinyl decal reproductions of Carroll Shelby's signature in the correct metallic GOLD color on each side of the car before the last show the car appeared in. :) Our plan was to remove them after the show, but since they are so eye-catching, we decided to leave them on for a while. The vinyl decals will peel right off if you don't want them, and we will remove them for you in that case.
Everything on this car works!! We replaced the tires with the exact factory ones about 2 years ago, so they have very low mileage on them. We have all the service records and the original rental keys with the Hertz key tags, convertible top boot cover, original dash ID tag, some Hertz items (cup, note pad, etc.). My husband bought me this car because I'd undergone some major surgery and he wanted me to have some fun. FUN INDEED! I LOVE driving this car and it gets so much attention everywhere I go in it. However, I am not a very aggressive driver, so the car has been treated gently...I have never abused it and have not driven it "hard". The stripes are currently in need of replacing, which in our experience needs to be done every 2-3 years. If we don't sell the car, we will likely have the stripes painted this time around so that they never need replacing again.
We participate as a family in So. Cal Mustang and Shelby car shows and this beautiful unique car has won many trophies, which you will receive with your purchase.
ALSO, and this is a BIG ALSO.......I have a Carroll Shelby autographed airbag cover--the correct factory airbag cover for this car!!!!! It has never been installed on any car, but now that Carroll is no longer with us, this makes this goodie a fantastic opportunity to have his autograph on the dash of your 2007 Shelby Hertz, which will make the car even more of a rarity! If you want this item, you will have first dibs on it for an additional $850.00 at the end of the auction. Otherwise, it will be listed on eBay after the car is sold.
I have some other rare goodies, like a vintage Hertz garment back in black with gold stripes to match the car, gold Hertz polo shirts, a matching baseball cap, posters, magazine ads, Hot Wheels.....the buyer of this car will have first notice about auctions on these extra items that I will be listing on eBay when the car is sold. Or.....you can make me an offer. :)
This gorgeous Shelby GT-H can be inspected by appointment here in Torrance, California. I will be happy to email additional photos upon request.

Next-gen Ford Cobra Jet development underway, but will it be a Mustang?
Wed, 09 Oct 2013Ford might be stepping away from the NHRA, but it isn't abandoning drag racing altogether. Hot Rod says that Ford confirmed a next-gen Cobra Jet factory drag racer is in the works, but the report also speculates that a new Cobra Jet could switch away from the Mustang nameplate.
Even though talk of a new Cobra Jet coincides with the all-new 2015 Mustang, the lack of confirmation for the dragster's platform leaves Hot Rod to guess that the car might switch to another platform - specifically a front-drive-based, unibody car like the Fusion or Taurus. We'd hate to think of a world with a NASCAR-ized dragster from Ford Racing, but it's also highly unlikely that the Mustang Cobra Jet would step away from its quarter-mile rivals like the Chevy COPO Camaro and Dodge Challenger Drag Pak.
FBI Seizes Computers, Listening Devices From Ford Headquarters
Fri, Jul 25 2014FBI agents searched Ford Motor Company's headquarters in Dearborn, Michigan, this month as part of an investigation into possible corporate espionage. Eight devices, along with documents, computers and financial records, were among the items seized by federal agents on July 11, according to documents obtained by The Detroit News. The FBI searched Leach's home on June 20 and seized more than two dozen items in that search, Reuters reported. Former engineer Sharon Leach, a 17-year Ford veteran of company, was fired last month, according to The News, which first reported the story. She admitted to placing recording devices under conference tables before meetings. She told Ford security she used the recordings to assist in her meeting notes. She couldn't remove the devices after meetings without drawing attention to herself, leaving the devices to record other meetings. Leach has not been charged for any wrongdoing. Former federal prosecutor and Wayne State University law professor Peter Henning told The News that using a search warrant, rather than a subpoena, shows the FBI suspects more employees could be implicated. "If it's an economic espionage case or trade-secrets case, that rarely involves one individual," Henning told The Detroit News. "So the concern is if you send a subpoena and ask for recording devices, those things can be erased." Leach, Ford and the FBI declined to comment on the investigation.

Ford Green Zone works magic with GPS to make your drive smarter, cleaner
Fri, Aug 29 2014For the most part, plug-in hybrids rely on the power stored in the battery until that charge is depleted. Unless the switch can be changed manually, it's only then that the cars fire up the internal combustion engine and begin using the fossil fuels on board. This is ideal, of course, when one's drive isn't long enough that the car needs to start sipping gasoline at all. On longer commutes, when it's certain that the route is longer than the car's all-electric range, this isn't necessarily the most efficient use of energy. Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds. Ford is working on a smart system, based on Nokia mapping technology, that uses GPS data to use both the electricity and conventional fuel more efficiently. Since battery power is less efficient at highway speeds, Ford's Green Zone system is designed to save some of that juice for the parts of the drive that require slower speeds, rather than just using up all the electrons right at the beginning of the drive. Using a website or the in-car navigation system, the driver can pinpoint the parts of the route, highlighted in green, where using battery power would be more effective, and set the car to automatically switch to electricity for those sections. Depending on the route, the car could automatically switch back and forth between the two power sources multiple times, particularly if the drive is a mix between city and highway driving. Of course, Green Zone will be go beyond that. The program is being developed to take traffic and road grade into account, details that allow the car to be make even smarter choices to improve efficiency. Ford even hopes to have Green Zone learn driver habits, and respond accordingly depending on who is driving the car. The system could control other features as well, such as anticipating corners and shifting the headlights to better illuminate the road ahead. Green Zone could also potentially use information from vehicle-to-vehicle networking to control functions in the car. The Green Zone system still has a few years before it will be ready to be put into production vehicles, but Ford is confident it will make its way onto the road eventually. As with other innovations that improve efficiency and make our vehicles smarter, we can expect to see similar technology from other manufacturers, until it becomes a regular part of driving in the future.
