    I live about 4 miles from Jimmy Defew's body shop, the guy that built that motorcycle. I've lived here all my life, and I remember that was the big story back then, that Defew was painting a motorcycle for Elvis. Next time I run into Defew I'm going ask him if that story was true. good video.

    1966 was the ONLY year for the Wildcat GS. They made so very few of them. I would suspect only a handful were convertibles. I have only seen ONE in person in my life, that being a hardtop. I would take that car above all others in this collection.

    I remembered the story there was a waitress that served Elvis Presley and ask him has anybody ever say that you look like Elvis Presley and Elvis Presley played along and said no and laugh. Because Elvis had a great sence of humor. He joked around with everyone.

    Elvis was such a generous person. I've always been fascinated with all the cars he had or bought people. I always dreamed of having the chance of owning one. I have a 70 mark 3 that reminds me of him but not connected with him. Great video and very informative, thanks.

    I read in a book...don’t remember which book...that Elvis had the gold and diamond flake car built and only drove it once because people mobbed around it so bad that he never drove it again. Wish I could remember which book. If i come across it again, I’ll let you know.

    I had one of Elvis's Honda dreams from blue Hawaii..I bartered for the bike from a grandson of a drummer that played with Elvis in the film .. the grandson brought the bike here from Georgia.. after the grandson tried several bike shops to get it running ..he brought it to me in exchange it for some repairs on his other motorcycle . Neither one of us knew at that point the history of the bike ..well the bike was black ..with very unusual pin striping old school pro free handed pin striping ..white .. any way I played with the bike found it had sunk floats ..replaced them and it ran like a dream ..well the pin striping is identical to the bike he had on display at Graceland ..,the title was also on display in a glass case .. so I had my friend in Memphis write down the VIN on the title , it was one digit different from mine ..so I asked the grand son if his grandpa knew Elvis then he said yes that he had been his drummer in blue Hawaii..that's as far as the investigation led ..his grandma and grandpa we're both gone at that point .I later sold the bike to a guy who owned a Cushman museum in Jacksonville Arkansas ..

    Great Elvis trivia there. George Barris built a lot of cars for the big stars of the day. It could be he presented the idea to Elvis and had him pay for it but then put it on tour with car shows and Elvis didn't get much chance to drive it. Be worth checking the history of that.The bike may be the same type of deal although with it the lack of pictures of him riding it could be a record or movie contract that wouldn't allow such dangerous activity?

    I worked on Elvis's stutz bearcat. The shop foreman went to Graceland and pulled wheels and tires off one of his cars and replace the tires with new ones. While there he talked with Elvis briefly. The Stuz was built on a pontiac chassis and had gold valve stem caps, fur on the ceiling with a placard on the dash that read ( ESPECIALLY BUILT FOR ELIVIS PRESLEY BY STUTZ BEARCAT OF CALIFORNIA
