    <DIV>Perhaps its time to sell those nice shelbys in everyone's&nbsp;garage. Let's&nbsp;all bring them to Barrett-Jackson in Scottsdale in 2006 and get&nbsp;that promised $200,000 and then&nbsp;we can go out and buy a Ford GT and a 2007 Shelby at the&nbsp;end of the year in 2006!&nbsp;Sell one and get two back. What a deal.and no more worring about if you have enough insurance on that old Shelby.&nbsp;Its time to cash in while you still have a chance!!!</DIV>
    <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
    <DIV>Will this be the year that people finally sell? Time to find that nice old Shelby a good&nbsp;home. Right?</DIV>
    <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
    <DIV>NOT!!!</DIV>

    <DIV>I'm in the same boat- underinsured on both of my Shelby Mustangs (moving to fix that, though...) and more than a little stunned at what's happened to these cars' values in the last few years.&nbsp; I don't want to sell either, because, like you, I drive all of my cars.</DIV>
    <DIV>&nbsp;</DIV>
    <DIV>That said, you have to look at more than Shelby values, and, when one considers the more rare Mopar's, are we really all that out of line?&nbsp; Now, if I could only get the market to feel that way about my '56 Mark II and my '66 Lincoln convertible, I might actually think that the collector world is a rational market... Naah!</DIV>

  2. Although written in jest, you may have made a very valid point. Remember the 80's when Shelbys skyrocketed out of sight - then the correction came. For those under 55 or so, it may be O.K. to wait out the next cycle, but for those over 55???
    Makes one think. 2 for 1. Hmmmmmmmmmm.
