Use an unmarked enclosed trailer and put shovels, rakes and other yard tools in racks on the outside.

It will look like a landscapers trailer as long as you aren't pulling it with a Lincoln Navigator.
Lol, that's the ones they go after. Most_______people love landscape tools. Fill in the blank with whatever you're thinking. I can't say it, I'll be in trouble :o

This is an interesting shot from 1966(?) or so. Jim Harrell with his A Sedan Mustang, tow vehicle 1957 Ford wagon. Jim raced
a '69 Mustang in A Sedan and a few Trans Am races in 1969. Was F Ford National Champion in 1971. Quite an interesting career
in motorsports, crew chief in Can Am, Formula B and more. He completed continuation Cobras at his shop in the Carolina's (Nostalgia
Motors) early 2000's for Carroll Shelby. Has built a nice selection of street rods. Pretty amazing guy.
Awesome Vintage racing photo ;)

Didn't search the thread too hard, this one might have been here before, maybe forum 1 ?

Mike

I know the original owner of one. His son says just 220 built and 75 out there found. Had 25K miles most from being towed to the dragway when the car was returned to the street in the early 90s. Blue, blue 4 speed bench seat. original 1963 plate is on the car.
Sweet!

A friend of mine back in the mid/late 70's had a 64 Fairlane and I remember it being a 289 4-speed, but he swore it was a high performance (we didn't say Hipo back then ;)), So really I don't know positive if it was but that Fairlane ran like a scolded Dog.
It could've very well been a Hipo. But no one will ever know  :o

Young Marine $1600 car left at home while deployed = uninsured to my way of thinking. Even in the 90s I was still not paying the extra insurance to cover theft on my cars.
Now I get Haggerty on all my oddball stuff. They even cover under construction or being restored. It even covers the parts on the shelves and tools too.

Remember he mentioned he "Sold" the serial number.  Dave says that the number transferred to another FB is on SAAC records which is Great.

    There were two tire sizes used . The 750/850  Casler on the steel wheel fit the stock wheel opening and the larger 8.90-15 Casler capped Goodyear needed the reworked wheel opening like on Jerry's car because of it's larger diameter and width. I don't know who did the work on his car.
"I" ran ( on 6S240) an M&H that was wide but didn't need wheel well rework "in the day" . 6S477 has mildly reworked wheel openings now for modern Goodyear 10x28 tires
You mean Lewayne's car. But what I'm trying to wrap my mind around is why would Lewayne Musselwhite buy the car just to turn around and sell it?  Is he hoping that the auction will net him a huge profit? Did he buy the car from Jerry Mendez at a very low price and Mendez knows that Musselwhite is trying to make a huge profit?  Hmmmm.
Lewayne has owned that car for more then a few years so it is not any kind of a quick flip.
Thanks for clarification.  I was just going by the title of the YT video with the year 2022 in the title.

The person who got the 1967 Shelby from the junk yard and turned it into a coffee table is a SAAC member and made sure the Registrar got the Vin. number and details. The car was white originally and had at least one color change. Yes, someone did rebody the car and it is in the Registry.
Dave
Whew... thanks for the clarification. Because when the gentleman said he "sold" the serial number, I thought, "surely he knew what he was doing".
Thanks Dave

Lol, don't know why it's such a surprise. When the ordinary John Smith sells a '72 Bronco, rusty at that, for $50K.
Come on, Really??
