Montcalm Community College in Sidney, Mich., had received red Shelby GT500 fastback #0029 as a donation from Shelby Automotive in 1969. The Shelby had served as an educational vehicle within the college's automotive education department until 1985. Its early-production serial number indicates it may have been a prototype for the 1969 model year. Montcalm Community College sold the Shelby at public auction in 1985 to raise funds for its automotive department. Kurt Knoll caught wind of it being for sale and showed up at the auction, bought it and left with his dream car.
