    Not really a shock considering all his health problems....I think he was the longest living heart transplant patient

    As with all the great car people that have passed away I am really broken up bad about this one. He was almost always true to Ford and if not for him the Mustang probably never would have evolved into what it is today.

    Having met him in person on 2 different ocassions and having his autograph is one of my prized possesions. Cant say it was unexpected though he is fortunate to have lived this long.

    Rest in peace Carroll your spirit will always be with us
