Dennis Collins now claims his 67 mustang is 1477 - Dave?

[JD]

Pookie has sold them some NOS parts that were found in the trunk of 1477 after the crash.

^^^ that's funny - thanks for the laugh ;-)

[deathsled]

Would look good as a 66.

[rmarble57]

It is now a factory Paxton car.
New video dropped recently.
GT350 dialogue starts around 18 minutes.

Once you tell a WHOPPER then that opens the door for many more WHOPPERS. 

[KerryBWhite]

If you tell a lie enough times to the sheep they eventually all fall into place, No matter what you are talking about or selling.

Another good example is the current state of affairs in the good ole USA, its a tragedy........

[Tired Sheep]

No offense taken. 😉

This sheep dung all the way and the people associated with it are stained.

how about his 69 gt 350 fb that was black? since only 2 were built, what would be the odds? (black, not black jade) and in the veiws, it was code a black. scoops

Are you saying 2 69 GT350s were painted black (A) or was Dennis? I haven't gone through the registry car by car but I thought Tony King's prototype 69 Gt500 vert was the only black built 69(70) Shelby?

Tom Caldera's '69 GT350 is an original black 4 speed. It got rearended somewhere in the early '70s and at that point Tom went full custom on it.

At that time he was still "partners" with Nazy Nate Cohen who was a 427 Thunderbolt guy along with other 427 Fords.

He went with "Sundance" with a full street rod interior and tubed the rear, but unless he had repainted the car black by the time I knew it, 1971-2, then it was originally a black car.

I believe only two black cars. One preproduction convertible and one fastback. The fastback was also preproduction car that was repainted to red. Both were big blocks.

No production "A" color codes

Thanks Pete for your link. I do not know how I missed the other black car. Great research as always on your part.

Well obviously Dennis and Richard are not joining the conversation and we are drifting off topic.....

[FL SAAC]

Has anyone seen the new coffee walk episode last week, nothing was said on this vehicle ?

We thought that on episode #201 they were suposse to reveal the provenance and all the history on this particular  vehicle

David,

    My thoughts on this are simple, if they do not join in to the conversation, they can then use "plausible deniability" down the road, should they choose to restore the car under xxxx's VIN, sell it, and then the real "xxxx" comes out of the woodwork from it's potentially deep, dark, cold storage. I see so many potential problems, on a civil, state, and federal level if that scenario ever plays out in real life.
