Agreed. I don’t think the Bullitt will be overtaken.
Nothing beats a classic!

Bullitt.  Mainly because the GT 350R will be selling On Line instead of in a Tent with 100's of People.

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"

There is currently no plan to sell 5R002 in an online auction format. It’ll be selling at Indy in a crowded room of bidders.

Kind regards,

Well I don't know,  some people are recession proof and know that the creme of the crop, probably one of the most desirable Shelbys is coming to market and may not be offered for sale again.

As I mentioned previously we have nice Shelbys, but this one is one of those that are the real "one of ones"

I think the Bullitt car V 5R002  is apples and oranges.

Keep it Shelby mustang V Shelby mustang.

5R002  V  Super Snake (2mil ?)  V  Jim Morrisons Shelby (in as found good condition) just say it was found and was real...Tony..Tony  ;D

I think that most conservative people whether loaded or not would rethink a purchase like this at the moment.
Meaning,....it will likely sell but with less froth and unbridled enthusiasm.
