I am another vote that Rush is not a good band, if that is musical talent then, WOW. His giddy singing, and the drummer's rifts really are nothing except small change ups. Being"tight" does not make good music. I have a few records in my collection, I do have 2 records that I just have as "collector" records, in case someone what's to hear that... Rush is one and the other is LOL Journey. Anyway, I can make my Shelby look like it has been in the garage for years if I carefully place items all over it also. LOL....Love the stories and pictures.

This will happen, dont be surprised.

As stated before , this project has been in the works for years.

Not only Mustang / Shelby experts, but many other experts in different non automotive fields are involved. The duplicating and aging the paper work for your paper trail as you mentioned has more than likely been done. You will have witnesses available to testify its validity and existence. This is a major production.

The vehicle may come out as a derelict rebuildable or driveable  with patina. Again years in the making.

Once again all the i will be dotted and all the Ts will be crossed...

Got to go, happy St Patty's day to all !

To be honest, it would not surprise me if this happened. Then it becomes important to have a good paper trail to go with it. Sure there are countless ways to do this, but this car will be scrutinized to no end. I always maintain the truth always comes out. Then we'll see if the Morrison/Courson heirs come after it.

The knowledge and talent is second to none. I believe it to be world class. But anything and everything is possible having all the right elements and funds available

The list of people who have tried to pull off fakes is pretty long. If there really is a conspiracy to reconstruct any car, I guess we will have to wait to see it.

Apparently, at least some forum members think that is a possibilty, I do not.

I think they underestimate the collective knowledge here. I do not, because I have been here from day one and I know how powerful that is....

Agreed. I think because it is a celebrity's car makes it that much more difficult.
Plus, I consider some might not be fans of Morrison and that's fine, but as you stated they are underestimating the knowledge that's obvious on this forum.

Bret owns a copy of the car's California Vehicle Registration from 1969. Apparently the last time it was registered, but not the last it was around as per the adds posted.

  For instance:  I grew up in the car theft capitol of the country - south Chicago.  It was not unheard of cars disappearing, yet, it seems a certain auto wrecking yard always had engines, transmissions, and other parts, but never the chassis that carried it.  The rumors always had it that they cars chassis were torched up into little pieces and put into the scrap bin.

  I believe 939 either dissappeared this way OR it is sitting somewhere unknown to anybody with one of those crotchity old farts sitting around waiting because....I'm gonna fix it up someday.
   I do imagine though, with a good front end wreck the car might have been front - halved, so, proof will be hard to come by.  Another possibility is it is running around on the Fomoco vin.  Out of country, Canada or Mexico.

Waiting for 939

There is a well known car collector in California, that has stated several times on another forum that he knows someone (another collector) that has seen the car, and has been trying to buy it for years. It is also been said, that the person who has the car does not know what they have. It's a story, it's plausible, and the latter fits toward the wreck and front half replaced scenario.

shelbymann1970

so lets see Bret(who has the title) and Bob say it is possible the car is still around(hey Little Red was found after even that owner was told his car didn't exist by SAAC). Another story by 939 sounds plausible. Tony is adamant the car is long gone and anything "found: would be a fake. So what am I missing here?
