#1
Both are marked sold if I log in, and it seems like both cars are Shelby GT500´s, maybe someone can tell us more. I have seen the blue one oftener for sale. And I also recognize the red one. But as I see so many its difficult to keep everything in mind.

If either of those cars are not rebodies and sold for that little it was a real deal.

This reminds me of sfm5s148 , it sold for 120k a few years back. It also looked like a deal until you look further and see it was a rebody.

Kent,
Yes the blue car shows the Shelby VIN as #00749   67402F700749
An original Lime Gold 4-spd with emissions factory completed car

I saw it at the Ford Nationals in Carlisle PA back in June 2016. I believe it was in the tent of 'Gateway Bronco's"
It was repainted red at that time with an original Shelby Tag that was a bit discolored / faded.

They took it to MCACN that November in 2016.

From there it must have been sold to "The Last Detail" who appear to have repainted it the the current Nightmist Blue.
That was in 2018 when we also saw the AC added. I believe they offered it for sale in December of 2018.

The Red car in your link is noted as #1919 in my files. I don't recall how I determined that VIN from the ad.
Maybe from the 'Omaha; World of Wheels' first place award.
They were supposed to place better photos in that ad with more information, but didn't do much before that auction.

Check the registry history on the car. That information was likely reported by a previous owner.

I talked to someone who was at the auction and he said the 66 and the two 67 did not meet reserve.

Then it must be a mistake in the websites I was looking at because the auctioneer marked them as sold on those. But thats a explaination definetly.
