🎉 Happy New Year from all of us at the Shelby American Collection! 🥂

2024 was a monumental year for the museum as we expanded into our new facility. None of this would be possible without the incredible support from all who participate in our Shelby Mustang sweepstakes. Your contributions are vital to preserving the legacy of Carroll Shelby and the Shelby American team, ensuring future generations can experience this rich history.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who visited the museum this year, to the Miller Family and other generous collectors who graciously share their cars with us, and to our extraordinary volunteers who make it all happen—from giving tours and running the store to supporting events and even taking on the less glamorous tasks!

We can’t wait to see you in 2025!
