He is having some company build them for him and they were talking about the success he had with the old Cobras that he had built from frames and parts he had in storage. From the picture it looked as if they had taken a 1967 Mustang and added the Shelby stuff to it, plus they have replaced the engine with a new one like the GT-500s have in them. But this shouldn't be quite the same as the trying to pass off those Cobras as 1965s since the Mustangs are real and were registered as 1967s.

This sounds like the licensing deal they did a couple of years ago with the Texas company to do "Eleanors". As I recall customers put up $. Didn't get cars. I think the Texas company went TU. People got sued. I don't remember it all.
