The new Doors film ‘When You’re Strange’ has reignited interest in the myth of Jim Morrison’s lost 67 Shelby Mustang, seen in the trailer above.
Rumor had it that Electra Records purchased Jim Morrison of “The Doors” a night mist blue 67 GT 500 for his fine work on the album “The Doors”.
One Friday night Morrison, driving recklessly, hit a telephone pole on Sunset Blvd and proceeded to jump out of the car and started to inspect the damage. Frustrated, he walked up the road to the Whiskey A- Go-Go and continued his evening. Hours later he walked back to the Shelby and by now the car was gone. Car collectors and Doors fans have tried to track the vehicle ever since, and what happened to that priceless star car remains a mystery to this day…
Other celebrity Mustang owners include Bill Clinton, Kelly Clarkson, Charlie Sheen and Eminem.
