Yes. The 1st car you posted up is a VERY customized 67. Practically none of that stuff is factory. I would be suprised if its a real GT500. There are a shit ton of fakes out there.
As a guy whos name stands for Hot Rod Dave, and has been in the automotive business for 20+years, and am a hardcore mustang lover (Ive owned 8 mustangs myself) Im gonna stand my ground here.
Another intersting fact: Did you know that "Elenor" from the movie "Gone in 60 Seconds" was actually a VERY customized 69 mustang grande?
Still, customized or not, the 64 1/2 to 68 mustangs are some of my all time favorite cars in the world!! I love your style my friend. TBH I appreciate a GT500 that is untouched as opposed to a customized one. Simply cause those cars are just so rare. Most will NEVER see a real one in thier lifetime!!

Very true, it is highly customized (Eleanor style bumper being most obvious). It's a 1967 Shelby GT500CR by Classic Recreations, with a lot of new parts for sure. Whether or not it started from a 67 body I don't know. But especially considering all the "Eleanor" recreations, I can understand how it could be from a 68. I don't doubt your mustang knowledge, it's just I thought you might have had the 67, 68 backwards (which by your standards may seem appalling, but even the best of us make mistakes).

Didn't Classic Recreations get shut down for VIN washing? I remember reading a story on Jalopnik about it.

2 million dollars isn't enough money to live the life of leisure. You'd still need a job. 2 million dollars, as silly as it sounds, is only enough to make life easier with a job. Even someone with a mediocre job can live large if they have 0 debt and low monthly costs, and when the majority of people's monthly costs are tied up in car payments, mortgages, rent, or student loans, eliminating those costs amount to a good bit of money. Also, the way trading stocks work are more aimed at long term gains(meaning your money is tied up) unless you want to really gamble with your money.

First thing I would do is use it to pay off my loans. I'd spend part of it helping my parents financially, and would save a couple thousand for my own little wants. The rest I'd give to charity.
