Great Signature:
"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 ."

Looks like a Chevy truck towing it, thus it might not be good news for the Shelby as it may be in the hands of a flipper?

Yes the flippers destroy the business and collector dreams. I think these cars have to go in good hands I´m always happy when I deal with serious people and long time owners and not those flippers who only see the money and have no ideas about the cars. But the real classic car guy is a seldom specicies in these days.

I tow our car all the time with a Chevy Suburban and I sure ain't flippin'. What ever the case it looks like the car in question is coming from somewhere not-so-good. Hopefully going to a better place. That can't be but so bad.

Hmmm, real Ford guys do not place a Shelby on anything but a Ford....

Dont get too alarmed, I am just doing some &^%( stirring.....Don't bite my head off.

No problem, I started driving big 4-wheel drive wagons (Jeep Wagoneers) back in the 70's when they were about the only vehicle of its type. They quit making them so I switched to Suburbans in 1996. I don't think Ford came out with the Excursions until late 1999. I drove the first Suburban for 16 years and the second for 8. I still have it and have bought a third. None have ever let me down.

But back to the thread. It could be that the GT350 is being saved from obscutity by a dedicated Shelby fan that had to call on a Chevy friend to tow it home. My Corvette friend helped me get my Shelby road-worthy again and I will forever be grateful. Maybe there will be a future post that will tell the true story.

Ted,

Would love to here that story.  Every car has its own story and each is unique.  A friend helped get my Shelby home after I bought it (picture a '69 coupe towing a '67 G.T.500).  I also helped a local friend get his '61 Vette running.  For a bow-tie, it was a pretty neat car.  He still owns it today, and I still own my '67, 43 and a half years later.  You can read the stories about my cars on my website.
