Wow..That is hard to believe.
    Should really be donated to a museum rather than end up in the hands of a private collector, possibly in China?
   
   I guess Shelby's family would prefer the money?

Don't believe the hype about CSX 2000 being repainted in a rainbow of colors. Never happened. It was pearlescent yellow until the late 60's and then Shelby had it repainted the same blue it wears today. It was a fun story though.

There's an empty plinth in Trafalgar Square, Londinium as well. (Google it if you live on the windy side of the Atlantic)
   
   We done got plinths aplenty over here, yessirree. I do love a damn good plinth.
   
   As it happens, today's word is 'rondeau'. Do keep up Mr.Snake :)

   Ah yes, plinth - famous pop artist, now dead I believe.  I used to know a Welsh baker called Rondeau.  Actually, it might have been Ron the deau, come to think of it...
