1967 GT350 for sale - could anyone help me evaluate this car?

WOW......it will cost you about $20K just to paint it back to the original Britney Blue. Because you will have to stripe every part off the Car so you can put it on a Rotisary and roll it over to Re-Paint the Underside correctly.

I can give you a hundred reasons to....

wait for the next car. In most peoples' minds there is always another Shelby just waiting to pop up on eBay or in the paper or in a magazine, etc. I have 4 Shelby's and when I bought each one of them I thought that I had paid to much. In 1978 I paid $3,500 for a '67 G.T.500 and thought that I had been raped. Now all these years later I'm just grateful that I bought each car when I did. Take my advice for what it's worth which probably ain't much but so be it. Good luck!!!

 

I think the best course would be to stay away from this one. There's too
much wrong vs whats right. It will be expen$ive to make it correct.

I had written a long reply but lost my server. The car looks like a project car sold threw Legendary Motor cars of Ontario Canada, to a man in Saskatchewan Canada, who hired Curtis Frazer of Esterhazy Sask to restore the car. I spoke to Curtis once and he said it needed lots of work but felt it had turned out ok. Curtis had restored other shelbys, I never saw the car personaly. It was for sale in Sask. then South Dakota, Texas & now Arizona. If done right it may be a great driver at the right price, but it had lots of metal replacement. I am quite sure this is the same car as I thought it odd to paint a beautiful brittany blue car puke yellow. That said if the price is right and the workmanship good its worth a look. I hope this helps

 

You're probably right about this one coming from Canada. I saw a 1985 photo of 67 #2190, and the complete front end was off, except the frame, and was on blocks. Looked like a front end accident. I know it needed lots of metalwork done and an expensive restoration. Also, I heard it has a replacement engine.

 

Anders I might have Curtis Frazers phone # if you want to ask him directly and get the real story . If the work is done correctly it could be a deal .Face it we all know what a good "no story" car is worth$$$$$$$$.

 

#2190 was advertised Aug/98 in the snakebite by Legendary for $11900. A complete project car. I offered to buy it if they could quote and performe the restoration. The person I talked to said it was a home builder, needing to much time for them to complete. So I passed. I have not met Curtis Frazer, only delt with him on the phone. I think he is honest and knowledgable, having restored other shelbys. I would give him a call, it could be a great car!! I would also repaint the car to its proper color. That alone would dramaticaly increase its value.

 

If the workmanship is good, you have a car that can be enjoyed and upgraded at your leisure. The Shelby parts are there, mechanical parts can be found more easily. Restored 67 GT350s are asking 125k, are they selling for that??? I think the yellow car could be a 65-75k car. But you must inspect it.jmo

 

"Well" restored, no questions 350's are selling for 125 or so.

(just sold one last month)

Nice 68 for sale there! Nice Price as well!

 

Ive always loved the 68s, ever since I sat in one on the show room floor. Thats why I ended up with one. The 68 350 advertised ,looks like a beautiful car and a sound buy. With a little work ( cam change & head work) it will performe as well as a 289 hipo. The original sheet metal and low miles is hard to beat!!! jmo
