Wow!  Calling that car gorgeous is an understatement.

Registered as a Mustang?  Yeah, no.  Beautiful car.   :o

Wow that is a nice looking ride.
Climbed a mountain & never came back. I will not quit & I always fight back 
From this moment for all my life. What could I say? Was born to be this way. And what could I say?  Just livin' for today

So have things moved forward at all?

The reason I ask is because a friend of mine just posted a photo of an almost identical Shelby Cobra that's up for sale.

I'm just hoping this Shelby on Instagram isn't the same one that you're trying to recover.

I'm not a lawyer, but if it is, I think it would be easy enough to get a judge to issue an injunction to prohibit its sale while the litigation is ongoing.  You'd have to be a pretty dumb mofo to think you could just sell the car that you know isn't yours.  That would add all sorts of charges and damages to the suit(s).

If that ad includes the car's number, let me know what it is. Technically, we shouldn't have to go through all of this legal crap according to the police but this guy is playing politics. The local sheriff is a buddy of this guy and won't let the police impound the car. Not sure how legal that is or not. The DA says we have to go this direction. Basically justice delayed is justice denied.

I'm not sure if our car is considered semi-competition or not but here is a link to one that sold recently for over two million at auction. I know the car isn't a Super Snake which goes for a lot more.

You probably need an Instagram account to view that.

The car in that link is located on the east coast, btw.  Probably not the same Shelby.
