Which begs the question, why wouldn't you insure a very, very valuable Shelby Mustang? The owner would potentially be out millions if an accident occurred. Hence, I'd like to see more proof than beyond the rumor. |

The owner knows he has a Shelby that he has owned for years and has been sitting for years. He does not know the history of it. I doubt that it is insured. I doubt it is worth millions. I put far more value on the Bullitt Mustang than I do on a Shelby owned by Morrison.

I could see a deep pocket Doors fan going close to a million for it, maybe, but thats about it.
Cool car to see if it's still around though. Bullitt is an Icon car. Not many people know or cared that Jim Morrison had a Shelby Mustang.

Janis Joplin's 356 Porsche went for $1.76 million three years ago when it was expected to go for a quarter to a third of that amount. I could easily see a similar scenario for Morrison's Shelby, if it was still out there and in a similar state.

Not as visually iconic or well known as Janis' Porsche but one of my very favorite muscle cars in the best color combination owned new by one of my favorite rock stars? I'd pay way too much for that. So would a number of other people.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yDAmweqwMSM Its more desirable to ME, just because it dovetails my car and music geek tendencies in one vehicle. I love the Bullitt Mustang and chase, and I like Steve McQueen, but I find the rest of the Bullitt movie tedious. I've never been able to sit through the whole thing.

I would like to make a motion to ban Tom406 on the grounds of not liking Bullitt.

Others please speak up w/ better info but as much as I've ever understood, the last confirmed sightings of Morrison's Shelby was sometime in 1969? ~ Pete .

Neat info. Morrison moved to Paris, France in March 1971 and died in July of that year. It appears he got rid of the car before going overseas.
