Sorry but it simply is not and it should be known and exposed. the 4000 series cars are self explanatory by their number designation, a footnote of sorts.
The completion cars have lots of footnotes, but for good reason. There were a lot of lies and deception over their origin, and that's something that NEEDS addressing. They were given 60s VINs. They were claimed to be built from leftover 60s parts, when they were in fact built 100% new. Because Shelby got caught, the federal goverment said he could keep the cars with the stipulation that they CANNOT be legally registered in California.

These footnotes simply point out things ABOUT the cars, not why they are in the registry.
