Chicago Seller Seeks $80K for This Beat Up ’66 Shelby GT350



When we first stumbled on this original ’66 Shelby GT350H for sale on Craigslist, we thought someone had mistakenly added one too many zeroes.

Read the rest on the Mustang Source homepage. >>

Boy, howdy, that's a big 'maybe' on the worth it...

http://www.hemmings.com/classifieds/...sale/?q=gt350h

They're goin' for 100-150K easy, seems, for a 1 of 1000 production car.

So if you got it for 70K or less, then put a lot of personal elbow grease into it to save the cash (like I would), then yeah, it'd probably be worth it.

If you have to outsource everything, then no, it's not.

That's also assuming things that can't be found are on the car too. If that's the case, then probably not at that point, as you'll spend yourself into stupid trying to obtain the unattainable.

All that said?

Want.

My take on the look of the car and the price the guy wants for it is, people in hell want ice water too.

At the least a big dog house could be built over the Shelby.
For 80K one could build one heck of a replica with a Boss style 302, with AC and a 4 or 5 speed

It's got to be a case of one too many zero's, no one in their right mind would pay more than $8K for that pile, regardless if it one of 1000. By the time the restoration was complete, very little of that car would be original.
Someone is on some good meds!!
