Someone please post the results of the Russo & Steele Shelbys going across the block this weekend. All the focus is on Barrett-Jackson and no results for the "other" auction can be found. My old car (SFM6S1507 sold in June '06 is going across tonight). I am very curious to see what it brings!
Re: Russo & Steele Shelbys I am also curious as the selling price of all the nice looking Shelby's at this auction. I visited the website and it appears this is the place to find a nice early Shelby. There are more early examples this year at RS than I've seen available at BJ for years. Anybody know about this Hertz: 1966 Shelby GT350H - RussoandSteele.com Looks like a fake from the engine shot. Notice the export brace. The description claims it is authentic, but gives no Shelby serial number. The one below is real!

Re: 2007 Russo and Steele Results, Great Cars Thanks for taking the time to post the results. I have the catalog and there are 2 or 3 66 GT 350's that did not show in the results. Did they not make their reserve?
Re: 2007 Russo and Steele Results, Great Cars This is what I'm curious about. My old '66 (SFM6S1507) was scheduled to go across Saturday night. It does not show up in their results.
