Have not heard that story as of yet. The paperwork shown above verifies that but I don't know anything about him. He may of just been buying them from Carroll and flipping them, could of been the money man, or may of been in partnership with Carroll on them. That might be something that Kirk knows. Seems like all of these cars have a story and these three or five have even more of a story. I would love to chat with the owners of any of the other Shelby cars. I know 9425 is still around, I saw it advertised a year ago that it was running through auction.
