ShelbyEra08 Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 i like it but dont at the same time. I think it would look better with a different style wheel on it, but cant knock someones hard work into creating this vehicle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EL SHELBY Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 It looks to be very well done and looks good though it's obviously unfinished. But yes, very over priced. Regardless of the hours and skill required to complete it. Check the question at the bottom of the listing. The guy asking the question was obviously being an ass.

shelbymotorsports Posted October 17, 2011 Report Share Posted October 17, 2011 The price comments are a given but more importantly that is not a 1967 Shelby VIN number no matter how many times the seller writes that it is. And good luck getting this car titled and insured with normal auto insurance coverage. If you look under this sellers closed auctions you will see a pattern of selling what he calls "replica" Shelby's. His ebay account is just one month old but he has listed at least 7 replica auctions so far with no takers. Hmmm. Lets wish him luck if he thinks Barrett-Jackson is the place for this car.

TexasShelby Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 It would have been worth the $275 or more if Shelby's house would have done it, but not like it sits... and please would someone change those butt-ugly wheels, put some orignal knock offs on it.

Dale Jerome Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Just my 2-cents worth, but I don't get this car at all. Is it resto-mod or mod-resto? First of all, why leave the wheels from the 2009 after going to all the trouble to make the outside look like a '67??? Second, for $275,000 I could buy 3 (or more) other cars that I would much rather have at Barrett-Jackson! And again, just me, but I think seeing that engine bay under the outside of that body looks a little wierd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbymotorsports Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 The Shelby American Registry comes thru again. I just checked the registry and this GT500 was sold on eBay back in April by a Clevland Ohio junkyard for $19k The car was in a rollover accident and has a SALVAGED TITLE. Make that titles as both Ohio and Kentucky have issued salvaged titles for this car. The current ebay seller is in Tennensse so it may now have a third salvaged title unless the title has been washed which is pretty easy to do in the Southern states. I only mention a possible washed title because the ebay seller says " comes with good clean title. " I suspect this will not be the last that we see of this car.

JeffJ Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 I think the seller is playing word games with the titles. First says it comes with two titles. Later talks about the miles on the car and says it comes with a good clean title. He never says that the GT500's title is clean. Wow. How do you like those 6" wide A-pillars? Just a small blind spot. That is the area however that makes this car look really not right. Also, is it just me or does the steering wheel look like it's about a 1/2" away from the dash?

shelbymotorsports Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 I agree that the seller does not come out and say, the 2009 Shelby GT500 has a clean title, but he does say this: "today it had 32,000 miles on it. comes with good clean title." I highly doubt the 1967 Mustang body only had 32,000 miles on it so when he says the car has only 32k miles and comes with a clean title that to me means he's talking about the 2009 GT500. Word games are just one of the many red flags going on with this sale. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelbymotorsports Posted October 18, 2011 Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Before ebay it looks like this car was sold at a Co-Part auction. http://www.autobidmaster.com/carfinder-online-auto-auctions/lot/23058700/COPART_2009_FORD_MUSTANG_SH_KY_LEXINGTON_EAST_KY/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
08KR525 Posted October 19, 2011 Report Share Posted October 19, 2011 $275K and they only post 4 pictures? I don't get the chrome front split bumper, then paint the rear one? A lot of work done and to be done for that kind of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shelbyville Posted October 23, 2011 Report Share Posted October 23, 2011 Just pulled up this ad and now the price is $24,500.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotrodrock Posted October 24, 2011 Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Just pulled up this ad and now the price is $24,500.? Yea, seems some of us are seeing two different cars for some reason. Some of the comments don't seem to fit the red '67 clone that I am looking at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Imatk Posted October 26, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2011 HA that's weird... the link is for a completely different auction now... strange. I wonder if he edited it or something, because the comments at the bottom have not changed and I'm pretty sure he couldn't have edited those.
