And also, if you look somewhere, you will find that Carroll actually went to court to sue the writers or makers of the movie &quot;Gone In Sixty Seconds&quot; for the writers to the name &quot;Shelby Eleanor&quot; [img]https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/pics/use...90f77d727def8e0[/img]</div></div>

Frank: I don't think anyone thinks you are trying to start a war. Hopefully, you understand the skepticism regarding a 67-68 Eleanor. I don't doubt your word that the title may have had the name &quot;Eleanor&quot; right on the face of it. But, all that means is that at some time in the car's life it changed hands from individuals in different states. Say the seller was in State A, and the buyer in State B. Buyer goes to title the car, and the tag agent (a clerk working for the DMV in most states, but the Tax Commission if it were Oklahoma) asks what kind of car it is. He or she takes the owner's word for it that it is a Shelby Eleanor.

I have seen more than one fake Z/28 that had &quot;Z/28&quot; typed in as a sub model on the title. Just means a clerk took someone's word for it.
