  1. I strongly believe that's the reason for the entire front being cut off the car. Seems someone didn't want this car ever being identified. Here's the thing that seems a little odd in 68/69 a 67 gt 350 was not a big money collector car. Could have been someone bought this car as a wreck and stole another car to swap vins? No one knows for sure but I'd almost bet those vin tags are on a car somewhere today.
  2. You are correct, I live in Georgia and tampering with a vin # is a felony crime. Most salvage yards in my area want a title with anything being sold for scrap.
  3. It's a real Shelby no doubt. I'm hoping someone comes forward to tell the cars story.
  4. I'd get it running and leave it as is for shows. I would like to know what Dennis Collins paid for it ?
  5. They have proven it is a shelby or the remains of one anyway. Someone probably has a high dollar fake GT 350 in their collection sporting this cars vin tags.
  6. It's possible this car was wrecked early in It's life and someone used the vin tags for a clone.
  7. That's Tommy Lee Byrd he lives about 20 minutes from me, him and his dad have some very cool cars.
  8. Was there a FF/X class? I have searched high and low for that class in IHRA and AHRA with no luck.
  9. Looks amazing
  10. I believe they said it's a fiberglass front end.
  11. The first thing is lack of rubber under the car, they said it has none and that's pretty much impossible even if you clean it. It really doesn't fit any class but that doesn't mean it couldn't have been raced at some local track just for fun. The lack of any lettering or stickers. I do think someone was building the car and for some reason stopped. I absolutely love the car it is probably one of the coolest drag cars I've seen in awhile.
  12. My guess is the shell possibly is the missing car #1444 but I seriously doubt it was ever raced. It is a cool piece for shows.
  13. Sucks because a 67-69 valiant would be awesome. I've been searching for a resin with no luck ?
  14. Nope it's been new builds atleast 4 times.
  15. I found an update on JJ and Tricia.
  16. The engine bay looks great.
  17. I'm pretty sure that's a California guy with the blue/white chevy ll.
  18. JJ's gotta be spending a fortune rebuilding these cars.
  19. I just had a recommended video on YouTube and I saw this.
  20. I'm glad to see JJ in the eliminations this time. I saw some new teams but I seriously doubt they make it to the 2nd round. The one thing I don't get is how do you have the fastest in America without the Oklahoma team?
  21. Looks great
  22. Nice job
  23. Your getting down into my neck of the woods.
