Have SEMA ban Denice Halicki and Eleanor licensing.

The Issue

Like many other TRUE car enthusiasts, I discovered my love for car extended beyond just owning and driving these glorious machines, but building and modifying them as well! 

Just as most people do I looked to the internet for inspiration and upon doing so discovered The wonderful job Chris does over at B is for Build on YouTube.  B is for Build has done wonderful builds ranging from his BRZ to a custom twin turbo manual huracan. As a fan I eagerly await every new episode and creation they bring to the table.

Upon starting his new series neither he nor his fans would have thought that someone claiming to be from the car community would destroy his Build and force a removal of content from his page. Chris began modifying a 2015 mustang into a 67 fastback with the once iconic (now it just grosses me out) Eleanor body kit.

About 75% finished the build, his lawyer made him surrender the car and remove the video's ,because of Eleanor licensing and ms Denice halicki's willingness to sue even great men like carrol shelby.

What I seek to accomplish with this petition would be a statement by the car building and car enthusiast community that actions such as hers are disgusting and only do harm to our ever growing community. Although there is probably nothing that can be done surrounding the lisencing of a body style, I would like SEMA and any associated brands to cut ties with Denice,Eleanor and anything to do with the Gone in 60 seconds franchise permanently or until she makes things right with the Automotive community.
