Legendary racer and car designer Carroll Shelby has sadly passed away at the age of 89. Shelby, who was inducted into the automobile hall of fame in 1992, is known by many as the father of Shelby Mustangs and Shelby Cobras.

He was also one of the world’s longest-living transplant recipients. He had received a heart transplant in 1990 and a kidney transplant in 1996.

Rest in peace.
