      Honestly, I don't normally skip the sponsor spots in a youtube video, but sometimes they drag on so long I almost click away from the video rather than skip it. Seeing a bar to know how long it will last makes it more bearable.

Fortunately the Michelin family, who owned Citroen at the time, had enough influence with the Viche government to keep him from being deported for trial in Germany.

    If anyone wants to know what the other Cobra Daytonas are up to, they’re doing what they were born to do. They’re currently racing! The masters historic racing series uses I think 3 or 4 of them. I watched them being absolutely thrashed around the Silverstone circuit at the 2021 British Grand Prix weekend as one of the many support series for the F1 race that weekend. They came first and second in the first race, and both spun off on final lap after an intense race for the lead in the 2nd race! Very loud, very fast and very beautiful cars. Glad to see them being driven round famous, historic tracks to their absolute limit. It’s what they are made to do. Not sitting in a museum and occasionally parading around a field.

      I do think that at least some examples of classics should be stored and driven only in the most special occasions.

We gotta preserve at least some of them and the rest should be enjoyed by whoever bought them.

    Back in the late 70s my dad read a newpaper ad for a "Plymouth Cuda- $2,500". He knew there was no way that someone was selling a Hemi Cuda for that little, and must've been someone who was too proud of their off-the-shelf Barracuda (which isn't nearly the same car). He went to look and was greeted by a woman who explained that her son had died in the Vietnam war, and was selling the car that he had left behind, not knowing anything about the car other than it's nameplate. They went to look at the car and it was in their shed, underneath a tarp, covered in boxes of empty mason jars. When he pulled back the tarp, revealing the shaker hood, he knew that it really was a 440 hemi cuda, and Immediately called his brother to get the trailer. He didn't even want to leave the property and risk someone else taking his deal. He shook her hand, said "sorry about your son", and went home with his new prize. I feel like this must've happened often with many of the young men didn't make it home from that war. I don't remember if he sold or traded the car, but he had it for less than a year. He tells that story with a very obvious grudge against his former self. He always ends it with "If I had known then what I know now..."

      lol this is the cnn article I found giving not much more insight...
      The Daytona soon landed in the hands of eccentric music producer Phil Spector, 26 years old at the time. He scribbled the car's records with house paint on the doors -- ridiculously exaggerating them -- and started driving it around Los Angeles.
      This wasn't the first time the car was seen outside a track, as Shelby himself did several test runs in Marina del Rey with a manufacturer's plate.
      But lightning quick as it was, it cost Spector so many tickets that his lawyer eventually suggested he get rid of it. Added to that, it was far from a smooth ride and became hot as hell after just a few miles.
      This was no Sunset strip cruiser, but an angry thoroughbred racer, after all.
      Spector wanted to fix these issues, but the cost was so high that he was allegedly offered to scrap it for $800 instead. Luckily he knew better, and sold it to his bodyguard, George Brand, for $1,000.
      Brand gave the car to his daughter, Donna O'Hara, who then did the unthinkable -- she hid it away in a California storage unit.
      Hidden treasure
      Precisely as to why O'Hara made the conscious decision to just store the Daytona, dutifully paying the rent every month for 30 years, nobody knows.
      Over the years, interest mounted around the car and she received several offers for it, but always refused. "She would rebuff anybody who presented themselves as interested in the car," said Simeone.
      Carroll Shelby himself went to see the car, but she wouldn't even open her door for him
      Fred Simeone
      "Carroll Shelby himself went to visit her to see the car, and she wouldn't even open her screen door to talk to him. It was widely known she had it, but it was also widely known that you couldn't communicate with her... people had given up going for it."
      "A very realistic offer"
      As a result, the CSX2287 remained untouched from 1971 to 2001.
      01/26
      The car in its current condition. Credit: courtesy simeone museum/michael furman
      With the help of a lawyer, Martin Eyears, car collector and retired neurosurgeon Frederick Simeone finally managed to convince Donna O'Hara to sell him the car, for an amount he'd rather not disclose, but believed to be around $4 million.
      "It was persistence and timing, the right place at the right time that produced the sale, and a very realistic offer," he says.
      In 2008, he founded the Simeone Automotive Museum in his native Philadelphia, where the car now sits among 65 other classic racers.
      "My criteria for collection are a significant history, original condition, American origin whenever possible, and beauty. At the time of purchase, in 2001, the only car that I didn't have that fit all those criteria was the Cobra Daytona Coupe, so I really wanted it very badly," he says.
      What happened next is the darkest part of the story -- "I hate to tell it, this is a happy story and the bottom of it is a downer. She [O'Hara] willed the proceeds of the sale to her mother and then set herself on fire. That was after the deal had been done

Although the historical preservation aspect, and the amount of vehicles that people bought cheap and saved from rotting to dirt in those collapsed barns and garages, makes all the regret feel less bad.

There's a '48 DeSoto in the garage covered in trash and a '76 Plymouth in the driveway sunk in the ground up to the rockers. Neither car had ran in decades. Sure enough, he says he's going to fix them, so not for sale, and his immediate successor seem to follow the same hoarding trend sadly...

They were talking cars , and being a nosy kid I ventured off to the back of the property, underneath a tree sat a beautiful Porsche, even though it had weeds growing up from every opening, car parts on the inside, and covered in probably twenty years of dirt... it was amazing to actually see one in person, especially since I’d been a Porsche freak since I was 7. I began asking my dad if he could buy it and keep it until I graduated, unfortunately his friend didn’t want to sell it... the car was a 1959 Porsche 356 1600 GS Carrera....

    I have found 4 cars in barns, an 85 rx7, 88 rx7, 72 260z, and a 97 chevy truck. All just abandoned. All had clear titles. The 85 rx7 had receipts with mileage and a freshly rebuilt 10yr old engine that started right up.
