Tony,

I’m pretty sure that’s the make, model and color car that Jimmy Hoffa was last seen driving. 
Thanks,

How long do you believe it will be until we start seeing clones of these all over the place?

At least the dash had Carol's signature.

I do see a pattern here, the one i mentioned and the one you mentioned have the same name JIMMY. both are dead...could be the work of a cereal killer...

Tony,

i believe in the near future, taking what was said about steve austin the six million dollar man episodes;

We can rebuild him. We have the technology. We can make him better, than he was. Better, stronger, faster.

just replace him or he with...shelby...

then someone will have the six million dollar (jimmys) shelby...

You dont have to make a clone, someones already done it. All the blue/saddle GT500 convertibles are still on the road. Im pretty confident this cube is a real car, so that means someone has a secret

Morrison's car sleeps out there somewhere I suspect. It still might surface. At a minimum its molecules are somewhere on this planet occupying another state of being.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

That cube (Shelby) is in Mustangs Unlimited's showroom in Connecticut. I've I've looked at it a few times. I'm not sure where they got it from.

See post #7

The cube has been around for quite a while and featured in a few magazines.
