After reading the story of 6s289   i was pondering this original owner or  family  who has kept them for 50 years or more ?
Some where some one is driving their collector car for the last time but they don't know it . Drive your car every time like it could be the last memory of it .

I bought 6S550 in August '67 and still have it. Drive it some every month here in Colorado.
Ron
Original owner of 6S550. Owned since 1967. 64,000 Miles, all body original except hood and front valance. All glass original except windshield. Still has aluminum 4 speed. Has replacement Mico.  Also own 1966 Mustang convertible. They are drivers, not trailer queens.

     Jim Schield is still the original owner of 5S272. Not just "family" owned. THE lowest number original owner "I" know of on a '65 GT350.
Celebrating 46 years of drag racing 6S477 and no end in sight.

That is some impressive dedication to that special ride.
"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"
