Dcourt Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 Just curious, roughly how much would it be to buy an automatic terlingua? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dh777 Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 I believe there are only 6, so it all depends on if someone is willing to sell. It would be well into 6 figures to get ours out of our hands right now because we really have no interest in selling it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sportscars Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 What my mom always told me was "If you have to ask how much it is, then you probably can't afford it." With no more Terlinguas ever being made it is truly a sellers market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blip Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 I've got the Grabber Orange " Link-mobile" with auto and don't expect it to be on the market until it passes on to my son's, if even then. So that leaves just 4 other possibilities to try. Can't even give you an estimate as won't consider any offers, however ours is "used" and "abuse" regularly so it would not be a top value Bunny like the beautiful blue one above.

Blip Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Man, you guys are killing me! Really want one!!! Guess the best way to find one will be to stay active with the Terlingua folks and join the TPS. I get the feeling these Bunny may more often change owners in private deals thru those who know of each other rather than open sales or auctions. (Could be wrong, will have to see what the future holds for the wild Bunnies.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VorpalBunny Posted December 16, 2011 Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Hey Blip, In my experience that is correct so far for sure. Most of the bunnies have traded privately to date. Anyone wishing to attend the yearly Terlingua event please contact me or any of our board for the Terlingua Preservation Society www.terlinguapreservationsociety.com Next year's Terlingua event is set for October 4-7, 2012. It is great fun, we always have at least 6 and sometimes as many as 10 Terlinguas at the event as well as a very wide variety of other Shelbys! These include SGT's, GT500's, SS's, GT40's, Cobras, 40th's, Limers, CS's and more. ALL are welcome and the its a goods chance to ride in and see the bunnies. The event is close to full now, but a few more folks are surely welcome. Space is limited by local accomodations and a desire to keep the event intimate. We all are good friends and play well together with new attendees each year joining the fun. Happy Holidays all, David vorpl8@yahoo.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan19d Posted January 8, 2012 Report Share Posted January 8, 2012 I plan on doing the GTS upfit but would also like to give it some Terlingua flavor. Does anyone know what size and font the Terlingua Racing Team lettering is for the rear quarters? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not know, but Alex at MacKenzie Mustangs has worked on some Terlingua's lettering, might check with him? He has his own thread in the vendor/service section and is a great guy.

Does anyone know what size and font the Terlingua Racing Team lettering is for the rear quarters? Several people have just done their own thing for that lettering and that really kind of keeps to the "Terlingua way of doing things". The whole Terlingua mentality is to thumb your nose at the norm. Find something you like and do it or find another car you like and ask the owner about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morgan19d Posted January 14, 2012 Report Share Posted January 14, 2012 Okay, I'm going to go to an auto graphics place in town this week and get some TRT script made up. I will pick a font there, but still curious about the height of the lettering. What is on the actual Terlinguas look to be about 2" to 2.5" tall in photos. Maybe someone that owns one can take a minute to measure for me? Pretty please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper Posted March 19, 2012 Report Share Posted March 19, 2012 Of course mine is one of the automatics. I know since I didnt need to sell my car when I had cancer I sure am not going to do it now I am better. Wouldn't even know what to value my car at as "replacement cost" cant be determined as the car can't be replaced by Shelby now. And speaking of do what you want I got speedster covers so now mine is a two seater. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
