The 2007 movie ‘Bucket List’ starring Academy Award-winners Jack Nicholson and Morgan Freeman follows two terminally ill men on their around the world trip trying to complete their wish list (bucket list) of sorts before they pass away. For one scene of the movie Freeman and Nicholson each drive a 1965 Shelby GT350 and a 1970 Dodge Challenger respectively around a track.
The 1965 Mustang was built as a Shelby GT-350 clone for the movie with Morgan Freeman piloting the vehicle. The car was one of three built by the Hollywood movie car builder, Ghostlight Industries. Of the three cars built for the movie, one was wrecked during the jump scene, one is in a private collection and this one is up for sale.
The race scene with the GT350 clone was filmed on the closed track at the Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California.

Apologies, I was referring to the first two posts. Silver, I agree wholeheartedly with your post.
As you know, the picture in this story was taken at Auto Club Speedway. The HSR West put on a fabulous historic race this past weekend at Auto Club Speedway that included quite a few Mustangs, including a nicely turned out 1965 Shelby GT350. Pica at this short link: http://wp.me/p2lHXB-8N
