Exclamation What would happen if Shelby...

Here's a simple question: we've all read articles about Venture's financial misfortune and their declaration of bankruptcy as well as Carroll Shelby attempting to buy back the 75% interest that Venture holds in Shelby American. Why aren't the replica manufacturers all joining financial forces and approaching Larry Winget with a "sound financial offer"? It seems only logical that if the industry collectively joined forces and purchased the majority shares of Shelby American, the entire industry would benefit. Instead of entertaining maybe .15 on each dollar, Larry Winget would try to squeeze as much as possible out of his investment.
Why aren't we hearing any rumblings about such a "venture"?
