And, there are only a small number of cars (26 total) that are in the National Historic Vehicle Registry. Don't know if that will have impact, but still a differentiator among different vehicles.

As Dana Mecum said (and I quote), "This ain't no car! This is a piece of pop culture!"

Actually, it can be both. 🤪
Nothing beats a classic!

Is there a 20 year old who just won the Power Ball? That's who will buy this thing.

You can't go with anything that an auctioneer says. They are the same as a traveling circus side show barker selling maybe rubber bands as classic IQ boosters from the '50s for $10 each with a certificate of authentication signed by the Ring Master...serial numbered too.

Chicken cup. Lol! Makes me believe I woefully underpaid for my original Shelby World Champ tee from 1965.

Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"

Beat down old green fastbacks trade in the 20-25k range, beat down old worn out COBRAS trade in the 1,000,000 range . There is a generational difference between cars.

^^^ and there you have it.
I'll put in a guess of $5.5M

I'm going guess around $6.3 million...............

Ok a lot of good opinions so far.  Lets talk about what kind of people will be bidding on this car.  Better yet what kind of bidder will end up with it.  Is it: A) the Steve McQueen fan B) the Mustang fan C) the movie lover fan

it will be the rich guys and a corporation cloaked under a disguise in order not to reveal itself

Maybe one of the museum/collector guys?  Hendrick, Simeone, Staluppi, Leno etc.

I'm thinking John Staluppi.  He just sold everything and started over.

A Lincoln driven by Joe Pesci in the movie Casino just sold for 10k at BJ Vegas this morning more in line for pricing.

Get in at ground level and start buying up the cars on Ford versus Ferrari.

I am predicting a collector to bid it up to 3.25 Mil. 

Then they HE may have to get this to have a place to write the check:
