[Henry II starts crying after Shelby gives him a ride in the Ford GT40 Mk II]
Carroll Shelby:
Mr. Ford? Are you okay?
[Henry II continues to sob]
Carroll Shelby:
Mr. Ford? You all right?
Henry Ford II:
I had no idea.
[pause]
Henry Ford II:
I had no idea. I wish my daddy... He were alive to see this. To feel this.
Carroll Shelby:
This is not a machine that just anybody can get in and easily control.
Henry Ford II:
Absolutely not. I had no idea.
Carroll Shelby:
Now, you want to win Le Mans. You really want to take first place, Ken Miles is the man to do it.
[pause]
Carroll Shelby:
Now he knows this car 'cause he helped me build it.
Henry Ford II:
Shelby, you know I've already appointed Leo Beebe Director of Racing.
Carroll Shelby:
Which is exactly why I'm talking to you. Now you let Ken Miles race Daytona. If he wins, he gets to drive Le Mans.
Henry Ford II:
And if he doesn't?
Carroll Shelby:
Ford Motor Company to get full ownership of Shelby American. Lock, stock, and brand... forever.
