I have heard the tale of how it came to the current owners hands, and it is a good one. -- the current owner, is a really good guy.

I look forward to its rehabilitation.

If you mean SFM5R002 the car is owned by Steve Volk. He also owns the Andretti GT40, and lots of other cars. He is one of the principals of the Shelby American Collection in Boulder.

Like I said, the restoration has been promised for something like 5-6 years (since I started going there). He may be pulling the trigger, but I wouldn't go by the placard that was with the car. My guess is that Bill and Dave Murray would do the work (they are the others at the museum).

I would like to see it as it was!!! So I hope they do it for real.
