     Many of those cars were for sale here in So Cal about 20 years ago. MANY of the Chrysler vehicles had disclaimers stating not able to be registered because of non certification or compliancy. The red Pantera has a Chrysler 340 stroked to 380ci IIRC. The engine was built by the late Art Chrisman. One of the GT500s was donated to Carroll at his 85th birthday party again IIRC.
   Time will tell if "Shelby mania" is strong or not.

My apologies. I looked through the Up For Auction section to check before posting - didn't search the rest of the forum.

No worries!  My response wasn't meant as a dig.   :)

Trust me - even with the 8+ years of the previous forum, I recapped many a story by accident  ;D
