Haven't heard that one before but, supposedly when some of the GT350H's were stripped down for restorations the shops could see where roll bars had been welded in and then cut back out.
The urban legend is guys would rent a GT350H for a weekend of racing fun......pick up the car, weld in a roll bar, hit the drag strip or road course, cut the roll bar out, and drop the car off with the rental clerk not knowing what took place.
Those cars must have been beaten on something fierce!
