Jackson is known to attend some high end car shows with some of his collection. Lots of photos is 1969 RS ZL-1 COPO at shows. So it's not like it will disappear into a collection never to be seen again like many rare muscle cars. And as stated, he did give others a chance to buy the Green Hornet - they just didn't meet the reserve.

i wish Joe Average could get something like that..

'Joe Average' owned it for many years and look how it ended up....

I see it as good Jackson has it now... it will be restored and saved.

i AM glad its getting saved..it was more like "i hope it doesnt get saved and stored away in a building somewhere" kinda thing..

Great story surrounding an icon of a Ford. I certainly hope it's resurrection is publicized.
Probably will be with the names attached to the find. Good stuff!!!

Martyn Schorr wrote an original article about the car when it was new. im kinda glad it is owned by someone who will preserve it... theres only one.

Cool how it was found by backtracking the paper trail!
Looks like Motorwheel Spyders in the as found pics?
Love to see the original Martyn Schorr article also hear what he remembers.
