Re: Shelby value opinions solicited

Just one opinion of course.

Not a car I would entertain for myself, not does it appear to be something buyers that contact me are looking for. At the same time yes there are buyers out ther for this type of car.

Would not even try and guess on a value. Not much in the way opf sales to basis an opinion on for me..

Good luck

Hey there,

Just sold my wimbledon 67 500, and just made an offer on another neat 67 GT500. Unique in that it's basically a track car for the street. Has a cage and package tray, with trick guages in stock bezel, but otherwise stock interior. Has maier racing frame connectors, Konis, panhard rod, big sway bar, willwood brakes, Total control A arms, 16 inch ten spokes, and ...a big aluminum full tilt Shelby motor. Man this thing goes! Body is straight, evidence of rust repair (drivers floor, needs trunk drops). Paint is ok, so-so. What would you think it would be worth? Is it a car any of you might want to own?

all the best,

Dan Belick

 

Dan:
The advice I have always followed is this. For a modified car (Shelby), take
the normal selling price for it, then deduct the cost of returning it to
factory condition to determine the fair market value. For example, if the 67
GT-500 in factory condition (driver) is worth $100,000 and the costs of
returning it to such condition are $25,000, then the top price for it should
be $75,000 (all figures for illustration only). But what that does not take
into consideration is what the car is worth to you, the buyer, which may be
more or less than the above figures. However, somewhere down the road, when
re-sale comes up, those figures will be a good guide.
