It's either the same car or one like it that I saw at the Saturday car gathering in Laguna Beach(?)

There are those skinny Cragar S/S's again on the Mel Burns car.

Mel Burns car in action. Spoke to the driver Don Mccain a while back. He is working for Shelby on a project for Performance Associates. Just like the old days. This 65 was painted blue and raced some more and then supposedly sold and stolen, never to be seen again. Bummer.

I no longer own #11 - I intend to bring the 65 Hurst Gee-To Tiger and my 65 (Original) 427 Cobra to SCR8. Charley and the Super Snake won't know what hit him! LOL

Against the Cobra? The only thing Charley can hope to do is bring the Silver Arrow, leave the traction control ON and put both feet on the accelerator pedal.

Jim Ferron,

It is relatively easy to confuse me but your post has me completly lost. As far as I know we have never met and have only spoke on the phone a couple of times last November regarding 6S011 after I purchased the car from Colin last year for some background on the history of the car. I can't remember ever discussing the car with you while you owned it or you begging me to buy it?

I have owned 6S011 since last summer and it has been on display at the Shelby museum in Las Vegas since November of 2004. If the president of CBS owns a 66 GT 350 with the Shelby VIN 6S011 that would be news to both him and myself?
