I doubt 6S845 had stripes either - 843 didn't and left SA at the same time and went to the same places - HiPerf Motors & LAX.

Looks like the Shelbys are pulling better than the estimates and the Cobras not as well.

This was an exciting event today. The prices for Ford products and Shelbys was way above what folks predicted. The two '66 Shelbys were bid to what they were worth, and I think the one owner was happy to let it go for that price. Other cars seemed to be astounding in their sale price - this was a seller's market for sure.

I think we will see the time in the future where there is no such thing as a common 58-67 Corvette. All the common non rare high dollar ones will all be restomodded.

Post by: Royce Peterson on January 15, 2022, 10:26:45 AM
I think it is more like folks are not crazy about the other options so they are moving cash into investment quality goods. The buyers seem to be more appreciative of the 1967 - 70 Shelbys from what I saw yesterday. The early models didn't share the bidding activity despite being equal in terms of quality of the merchandise.

It was dragging along - time is money. They may have told the bidders your next bid better be your max or we'll "bid goes on" the car.
But, only the shipping manifest will tell. Anybody able to hang around and see where the truck goes?

Registry has a note about repairs to quarter panels due to transportation damage.
"Caution Fan" sticker in the front & wrong fuel cap emblem in the back don't help however.

I am thinking (trying to put a positive spin on it???) that maybe the rear end was damaged back in the day and repaired with what they got from the local Ford warehouse? Thanks for making me feel like I noticed something interesting. I figure it hurt the sale price.

Poor Ron said: Registry has a note about repairs to quarter panels due to transportation damage.. So I'd expect if no shenanigans going on all the other sheet metal like the inner structure metal would pre date the actual KR build consistent with other cars built that day. If that was true I'm at a loss why those "early" quarters were not modified during resto unless the SAAC registry was considered proof enough for early quarters on this car?

Sorry, damage during NEW car shipping was taken serious,even on a 4 door Falcon. Small parts,like moldings,etc could be replaced. Damage that would require REPLACING 1/4 panels ,out of the realm of possibility. The FIRST statement made about that is where the lies began. Picture damage to rear of 68 Shelby that would require REPLACING 1/4 panels…..fiberglass parts? Not a scratch/ding! More likely the info supplied for registry was distorted to hide the real reason. Auctions are the SECOND oldest profession. Do your inspections BEFORE you bid/buy.
 As the values increase,the crooks will come out of the woodwork.

We did end up getting the car although the TV coverage went to commercial too early to tell at home.

R002 is going to the home of someone who cares deeply for the car’s history. It’ll be in good company, too.

I could see one side but not both. A guy I knew(since the early 80s) was the original owner(think still is but moved to Az) of a black 69 351W Mach1. He ordered a maroon one when he started his internship with Ford in June of 1969(whole career as a Ford eng). The car came in and one quarter panel was damaged being taken off the transport and needed replacement so he rejected the car. Dealer couldn't find him another maroon car but found a black one. He said no. The dealership asked him to come see the car. He said once he saw it(claimed no orange peel in paint) he loved it and bought it. So my question now without the registry in front of me was that info from a former owner or Ford archives on the KR?

 Buyers are paying more $ for cars coming out of collections (around 40 collections here). Something is wrong with this market when a tour bus sells for more than SJ dragonsnake cobra. The only bus here that should have sold for over a mil was the yellow specialed short bus!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I spoke with the owner of the white '66 Hertz car that didn't sell. Looked the car over pretty well too. It was a nice driver with a new reproduction Paxton setup installed. It had worn Radial TA tires that dated more than 10 years ago. Sort of an odd color combination with the white exterior / gold stripes.

My take on it was the Paxton was adding nothing to the car's desirability. It would have done better with a newer, more correct set of tires and some proper detailing of the underside and exhaust system.
