I found a die cast car of a Ford GT with this person's autograph and was wondering how important he is. Is it worth purchasing?

Re: Who is Bill Flynn?
The only Bill Flynn I am familiar was the "Wild" Bill Flynn who owned and operated the Yankee Peddler A/FX cars and flip top funny cars.
It seems odd that he'd be signing a Ford GT but who knows, it may be a different guy.
He was a successful drag racer back in the heydey of the sport but I don't think he has a lot of mainstream recognition.

Re: Who is Bill Flynn?
Thanks guys for the info. Here's the story:
I was at the local Ford dealership parts dept. and saw a Ford GT with the signature on it. I asked about it and the parts people said they inherited the thing from the previous owner. I am wondering if the signature is really Wild Bill Flynn's. Is there a way to track him down? Where's Leon when you need him? I wonder if Cheaps can help me out here too? : Those two have connections. lol. I'm wondering if it's worth anything as well.2006 HRPT LH
