twobjshelbys Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Some of these are from the Parade on Wednesday (sorry for the duplicates) and a few from inside. It sounds so cool! This will go across the block tonight and I'll probably get a few more shots of it on the stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MY500SS Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Great pics Tony. Makes me wish I was in Vegas this weekend. Have a great time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twobjshelbys Posted October 11, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2009 It sold for $275K (+10%). Carroll did make it to the auction and rode onto the stage with Don driving. I got some good photos but have to convert them from Nikon raw to Jpeg and upload them which will take more time than I can do tonight since I have to leave on my 12 hour drive by 5:00 or 6:00 tomorrow morning. I also got some good shots of Jay Leno on his bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobjshelbys Posted October 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2009 nice pics Thanks. I have some (well, that's an understatement) of it going across the block and the press follow up. Carroll was there. I'm sorting and culling out the best ones but I got back to our friends house at about 9:00PM last night, had a pizza and crashed and then drove 800 miles straight through to Colorado. I need to decompress. Plus Sharon was there and I told her that we'd pool the photos. I think I did post a teaser with Carroll and Jay. It's a pretty good shot.

twobjshelbys Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 OK, now to part two. The previous photos were all before the auction. These are from the auction floor. I already gave a sneak peek with Jay and Carroll. I had gone down early Saturday and I got an email from my friend's wife who was watching on Speed that said both Carroll and Jay were there. I figured that Carroll was there for the Prudhomme car and Jay was there for his bike. The Prudhomme car was close in the sequence after CSX2568 so I was kind of running around. I got to the staging area with the Supersnake and Carroll and Don were both in the car. This is the rest of the story. I still like taking stills better than a movie camera. This is Mrs. Shelby.

twobjshelbys Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 This was kind of staged - the entire Shelby crew present lined up for a photo op! It was kind of like herding cats but Amy got them lined up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twobjshelbys Posted October 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 Tony great pic's!!! What did the car auction for?? I didn't get to see this on TV? Mick It was bought by a mystery phone buyer for $275,000. That was thought to be Ron Pratt. But the whole phone thing was kind of staged so I expect he had an advanced bid in to trigger if the final bid was not high enough. Regardless, I think it was a well bought car for for the legacy. I recall that one of the bennies was a ride with Don at the track. It will be interesting to see Ron riding with Don. Hope someone is there to get some vids!
