Elvis’ jet sells, finally, at Mecum

The Jetstar would be a great exhibition piece but I doubt it would ever fly again,after languishing for 35 years. It would take more than its worth to get it airworthy again.

 

An outdated plane or anything do that matter just because a dead celebrity owned it? No thanks. And this… “Priscilla Presley, 77, Elvis’s former wife, who asked the crowd to honor her ex on Elvis’ 88th birthday with some high bids”
That’s just tacky as ##$k.

And as well, is a Shelby even a Shelby without Carroll Shelby at the reigns? What’s next, a “New Don Yenko” car? These cars are Sold under a certain person’s link or ties with in the understanding that the certain person was involved in the making of this product. And I do believe that in the final years Carroll Shelby was still very involved in the design of the cars. I don’t think they’ll ever be the same without him.

 

Poor poor Priscilla, she'll just have to keep jammin' gears to make ends meet.

 

For less money you could actually get a plane that flies!
