If this coupe is real and going on the auction block come August wouldn’t it be listed? For a mere $13,000,000 per copy if real how much would it cost to manufacture an aluminum replica with a real CSX2590 VIN number? Why would Brock wait 44 years to reveal this gift from Shelby? Is this April 1st?

Maybe he didn't want to be hounded by everybody to get him to sell....still, sure sounds like a good 4/1 joke. if it is, it is hands down the best EVER!
Ron...that picture in the BRE days sure is interesting....................
Imagine what THAT car would bring...probably unmolested, and owned by Brock since day 1!!!!!

Just got a PM with the SCM Insider Newsletter attached....this is to go out later today to paying subscribers.

It was HTML-based so I couldn't do a quick cut and paste...but I wanted to post it... I uploaded it to my server.

It's a copy of the whole e-mail.. about the sixth item down is a little non-descript reference to the Coupe

...this is getting r-e-a-l interesting.

It is amazing what you can do with photoshop. My bet is the "real" story comes out tomorrow.

It is incredibly unfortunate that this story was broken today, which will no doubt make people think it is a spoof. In fact, I have been working with Peter Brock for several months trying to put together a dossier on his car explaining its provenance. But we'll let the photos do the talking - you can't fake the additional ones Brock has at his home, many of which are the old, square "instamatic" type with dates on them. Just wait!

Looking forward to hearing some proof on the "lost" coupe, while at the same time wondering intently about today's date??? At least I'll know what to do with the Mega Million cash if I win....
