Yep. Are you going to do the Gurney/Johnson car that raced at Sebring in '64?

CSX2259.  Bob Johnson destroyed the car at Sebring flipping the car multiple times after crashing into an Alfa GTZ at over 100 MPH. The remains were hauled back to Shelby American, salvageable parts were removed and the rest was cut-up and thrown in a dumpster.

True, but the remaining parts were used to build a reconstruction of CSX2259 that currently races today.
