Restored by a Corvette shop? , well you do know it has fiberglass on it!

How will you close the hood?

Now that he has photographed the tags for his story, the responsible thing to do
would be to remove them and send them to SAAC

Hi All,
  As the original poster, many thanks to the folks who took their time to share their vast
experience on this topic . I am sure there are some who have bought and sold many Shelbys and know
what different buyers want and how different things affect prices.  We have bought and will most likley sell
our shelbys at some point and can benifit from the opinion's given here.
My takeaways by importance:

       1) Solid original body with all or most original sheetmetal.
       2) Born with engine. 10-20% premium added or deducted, amount determined by price of car.
       3) Remaining original Shelby specific items i.e. rear ends, intakes , carbs etc. the more the better.
       4) investors and pure enthusiasts can want or tolerate different things.
     Thanks all.
                      Dave

Hi All,
I know this has been asked before but I would like to ask for opinions in a slightly different way.
So you have 2 identical 67 GT-350's .  Car "A" has born with matching engine .  Car "B' has a correct
engine but not original to the car.  If there is a price difference for car "B" typically how much less should it be?
Also would this be a large negative on buying car "B" as far as desirability is concerned ?
Any opinions much appreciated!
Dave

Carl had to sign it as his sister Carol was too busy that day

I contacted the original poster as I live in Denver and know
a guy in Firestone , Co.  who has a 66 Hertz car.  seems likely
it's his old Shelby . Hopefully it will turn out to be.

We are the third owners after Hertz of 6S715 having owned it 20 years , the owner before me 22 years.
We Had plenty of chances to sell. Might be tempted to trade into a nice 67 350 who knows.
Dave

Added 6S2329 to the post.
Thanks

something doesn't look quite correct about this car , better check the numbers before buying.

If you are the current owner of 66 Shelby SFM6S1177 or SFM6S2329 I would like to chat with you if you have time
please P.M. me.
thanks,
Dave

Hi All,
So I fired up 6S715 and went to the Shelby Museum show last Saturday, I believe there
were 100 or more cars in the show and everyone seemed to enjoy the event. I happened
to be standing behind the winner of the new Shelby won in the drawing , he was pretty excited. If you
are in the Denver area the museum is a must see as it is full to the top with genuine Shelby's, Cobras
and GT40's.
Dave

At least he isn't asking 200K for it

disregard,
there are day passes mentioned on the SAAC 43 page

Hi All,
So I have some friends that may want to attend the convention , will there be any day tickets for spectators at the gate?
Thanks
