Never really "missing" - Interesting side note. Jerry Titus worked at Bill Frick's and it's where he met Carroll Shelby when he repaired Shelby's Maseratti that the factory said was beyond repair. He also worked on the Studillac project. How about that Jerry Titus not Aston Martin built the first Bond Car.
