I owned three Dodge Shelby cars ('87 Lancer, '86 Omni GLH & '89 CSX) and I can honestly say that the Dodge Shelbys are really the re-headed stepchildren to the Shelby name. Today's fans of (what's left of) the Dodge Shelby cars are truly a bunch of bottom feeders. They all aspire to have a nice Shelby car, but they have no money.
Here's the problem with "Shelby-Dodge" vehicles; The year after Shelby specific vehicles came out, Dodge put equally equipped vehicles produced as "Dodge-Shelby" which were better & priced better. That Dakota is a carburated 318 & was touted at the time as having a V8 in a mid-sized truck. A fuel injected 318 Dakota came out the following year as a regular production option.
So, who wants it? Obviously no one.
