Yes that is a clone car in that article. Richie thinks it could be an old race car from that era, but this clone is built on a '67 and the original car was a '68.

Your second link doesn't work for me.

I see this story from time to time on line.

This was posted on FB today. Same car?

That was proven to be false years ago. I seem to remember the original color was wrong and they got super, super cagey about the trim tag. I think Grump himself hung up on them at one point if I remember the story right.

Ain't no fun in viewing your car as an 'investment'. Get out there and beat on it!

This whole story, and this whole history is extremely interesting and always peaks my interest any time it's brought up again.

Probably already mentioned in this thread, but reportedly the car was brought to an event Grumpy was at and he verified it was the car. Anyone remember this story?

I know at least one person who knows the vin so if anyone ever has a lead, I can put them in touch with the guy.
