Jon Shirley is a billionaire that has one of the premier private collections of high-performance cars in the world. He's right up there with Jay Leno when it comes to quality and quantity. I don't think there are very many people that have enough money to pry that car away from him.

you know... the terrible paint that all ford and most all cars come with now. where the clear coat is not applied correctly and it looks like the skin of an orange.
