What are you talking about? The contract with Shelby was simply a name licensing agreement. The GT500 was developed, designed, and built in house by Ford's SVT team with modest input from Shelby American. Shelby has not dropped Ford, Ford has dropped the GT500 name. Shelby is not going to take over production of GT500s as they neither have the tooling or licensing necessary to do so.
