Looks like Shelby isn't a part of the deal this time...

"Jumped the shark" comes to mind.....

Looks like Caroll lost in court. I think he was claiming he owned Eleanor. Which he didn't own. The director of the original movie own the rights and he had passed away but the widow was fighting Caroll, I think she had Disney on her side also.

Gotta wonder how long it will take before Ford's legal team jumps all over these idiots for not noting in their advertisment that "Mustang" is a Ford trademark and that the image/shape of the car is Ford's intellectual property too...LOL

I wonder how the unique performance situation will affect the sales of these cars?Seems to me buyers would be skeptical to buy it since the whole title washing ordeal etc...

:thumbsup:

wait, but wasn't eleanor as it appeared in the more recent gone in 60 seconds movie designed by chip foose?

my thoughts exactly! Wouldn't Chip have to sign off on someone re-producing the vehicles?

It was a collaboration between foose /steve stanford and the guys that build movie cars cant remember the company name
