    Original owners manuals in good condition have a good demand. Probably best to consult a real literature dealer or checked completed eBay auctions....Do you want to sell them as a lot or individually ? I will make you an offer on all ten. Drop me a note. Coralsnake68@hotmail.com

    I wouldn't be interested in the lot, but if you decide to sell them individually and you've established a price I might be interested in one of the '68s...you could list them here in the for-sale section.

    when you decide what you are going to do let the forum know. We have some deserving people here that will pay the market price.

    "HI PETE........YEA, MY FAMILY IS ACKING $5OO FOR EACH........THANKS FOR THE REPLY"

    If anyone has $500 to burn, here's your chance, boys and girls!

    PS: With that much money involved, I 'd be careful who you give your name to, Carroll Shelby could sue you for theft.

    I would say put them on ebay and see what the market will bring. I believe 500.00 each is at the high end of what they are worth but how knows.
