The legend of Jim Morrison's night mist blue 1967 Mustang GT 500 starts after the release of The Door's self titled debut album.  Apparently the executives at Electra Records were so happy with Morrison's work on the album that they awarded him with the brand new Ford Mustang.  The mystery arises after an incident one night in Los Angeles when Morrison allegedly ran his new Mustang into a pole on Sunset Boulevard.

After hitting the pole Morrison allegedly walked up the street to The Whiskey A Go Go where the Doors had performed regularly helping to spread the word around Los Angeles about the popular band.  Later that night when he returned to retrieve the car it had vanished.  Some say that Morrison never looked into the car to find out where it was or who had towed it.  Ever since then noone can truly say where the car is or if it has survived.
