The car on the right is a replica of the Shelby GT that Hertz started renting in 1966. The car was known for being rented by amateur racers on Friday, raced during the weekend, and then returned on Monday. This particular car is missing the "H" on the side markings. That was a production mistake. It is not clear how many of these exist because Lane pulled back the mistake cars from its distributors and exchanged mistake cars with those that purchased them. However, a few of them are still around, this being one of them.

The car on the left is autographed by Herb Fox, a midwestern drag racer who raced for Fred Gibb Chevrolet. There was a limited edition of 2,000 for this car, but only 250 of those were signed.
