If they made that car today, it would sell.

There are probably 1000 regulations that would prohibit them from remaking and selling that car the same as it was. Safety, fuel efficiency, emissions, yadda yadda yadda. It's so bad that Ford is just walking away from the passenger car market, they can't make any money after the put all that mandated stuff in.

"If they made that car today, it would sell."

* In theory they could.
* Paul Ryan and the boys and Obama signed a bill for boutique manufacturers to exempt form all safety regs for replicas etc if they make less than 250 / yr.
*So, 249 a yr from a supplier sell them through Ford.
* Now this is where I get the arrows.
* Those 250 needed clean engines ( LS's etc )
* Na, go electric, Solid State Batteries will be here in no time, the Anode Revolution after that, so range and charging anxiety will be a thing of the past before you know it.

So a "Shelby-Clone" 67' Coupe w/ a E-Drivetrain that goes like stink, is not out of the question.
