How much of the auction take went to the defrauded customers who paid huge deposits for a Shelby-licensed Shelby Mustang?

Sadly, the Shelby legacy is quickly becoming one of ripping off the customers. Whether it's the sordid Unique Performance saga, or the insane dealer gouging on the Shelby GT500, or the poor "bang-for-the-buck of the wholly underwhelming "Shelby GT" Mustang (http://speedzzter.blogspot.com/2006/08/shelby-gt-dull-knife-in-gunfight.html), the "Shelby" brand is becoming synonymous overpriced disappointment.
Too bad Carroll Shelby apparently is unwilling to "stand behind his name" by doing the right thing.
