Default 1967 Experimental Shelby GT 500 Coupe

The long lost 1967 Experimental Coupe, many thought lost forever was found abandoned, stripped and weathered by the elements two years ago. Now resurrected and gleaming in it's original brilliant red. A true piece of automotive history preserved.....

Little Red was originally powered by a supercharged, big-block V-8, and though there's no official word on the restored car's powertrain, we're going to assume whatever is under that hood is closely related to the original spec.
I wonder why there are no photos available of the engine compartment?

I think it was powered several different ways and one was with two super chargers. I could see them thru the scoop. They chose to restore it as its most exciting version. No idea how it was equipped when sold.

Not a lot of photos or info on either that or the Green Hornet . I'm curious about a lot of the details. It mentions they tracked it down by it's Ford VIN, it also says that it was built by the San Jose plant with a 428 and built very early in the model year so I assume it was as simple as a VIN search for 701P10.... or 7R01Q10....
I would imagine the car would show up on Google Earth if we knew where in Texas that was.
