GT-H Convertible Barret Jackson Auction

From Media.Ford.Com

Palm Beach, Fla., March 31, 2007 - Lightning has struck again, the Ford Shelby GT-H "Rent-A-Racer" program from Ford Motor Company, Shelby Automobiles and The Hertz Corporation has returned with a special run of convertible versions of the performance-modified Ford Mustang GTs for rent exclusively through Hertz. Unveiled and sold for $250,000 on the block at the Barrett-Jackson Auction in West Palm Beach, Fla., the companies announced that approximately 500 convertibles, a first for the GT-H program, will be available through the Hertz Fun Collection at select airport locations in Arizona, California, Colorado, and Hawaii, later this year. Proceeds of the sale will benefit the Carroll Shelby Children's Foundation.

Lot of blue shirts around that car.

That's the prototype from SEMA, I gather. Still to bad they're not doing manual transmissions.

I guess next year they'll offer the Shelby GT in 'vert also?
