I remember reading about those cars years ago and the landfill. I think they traced it to where it was buried and didn't go any farther, right? Not sure if there would be much left than a few crusty and bent frame rails.

Default Re: 1966 Shelby GT 350 drag car
Just happened to see this post.

I personally re-restored 6S011. I owned the car in the late 90's and did everything except the paint. Currently as of spring of 2005, to the best of my knowledge, the car is owned by Les Moonves, the president of CBS.

Les Quam....don't you wish you bought it from me when it was cheap? I begged you to buy it.

My current project is the 'Russ Dunmire' 68 Hurst Olds drag car. Yep THAT 68 Hurst olds....

You mean the one that got rolled after it had been sold to a new owner but before it was delivered?

The owner of this car before Colin would drive it to the same gym in Irvine I go to. I use to get a kick out of the owner actually driving the car around.

What happened with this build? It's been years since an update has been made.

Cool car! My uncle would like to see that. He mentioned he met Gus back in the days. I'm coming over to help him mount the bumper, fender flares, and winch onto his Silverado tomorrow. I'll see if he still remembers that.

Awesome car. I knew Shelby sold drag racing Cobras, but didn't realize there were drag racing versions of the GT350 as well.
