WHAT A 1930'S DUESENBURG CAR DEALERSHIP SHOWROOM MIGHT HAVE LOOKED LIKE

WHAT A 1930'S DUESENBURG CAR DEALERSHIP SHOWROOM MIGHT HAVE LOOKED LIKE.

SOME PEOPLE WAIT A LIFETIME TO FIND A GREAT CAR, SOME FIND IT WHEN THEY ARE A TEEN, AND WAIT A LIFETIME TO WON IT. MARK WAS A FORTUNATE RARITY, HE GOT BOTH THE CAR HE DESIRED 30ISH YEARS AGO, AND IT'S A BARNFIND 1969 GT 500 SHELBY MUSTANG

Mark's neighbor was an attorney that owned 3 Shelby Stangs, acquiring each as payment on cases, and this was the one he drove the most and damaged in the early 80's, and then parked it in the warehouse over his office.

Why do car companies go through any trouble to attempt to disguise a car, and then drive it on the 405, at 1 in the afternoon on a Saturday?

I think a couple minutes with searching through the 2013 models would reveal what car company made this, just with a couple little things that they aren't disguising. The door handle design, the truck lid to bumper profile, the gas filler door location, the rim design, etc etc. So why drive it in public in LA, with Michigan plates if it isn't trying to stand out like a ugly goosling among ducks?
