Mr. Bruce is right on the $$$$$. It is CSX 3285. Owned by Ernie Nagamatsu of Old Yeller II fame. His son Erik is in the driver's seat.

It was the car in the movie, Hollywood Knights. It has a Holman Moody engine and, I think, if you check the Registry, it was either the last car produced with a 428 (it doesn't have one now). Ron Richards can check that piece of information. Memory is a little foggy.

Rick Parker is right on the $$$, too. The original owner was a gentleman who owned a jewelry store in Chinatown in Los Angeles and DID drive it in the movie.

The car has 26,000 miles and hasn't been driven in 13 years. It was on display at the Petersen Museum for Shelby's birthday a few months ago. Ernie is the second owner.
