They never mention the carryovers, but the car in the pictures is 6S061.

67s and 68s are valued differently as well and they barely mention the later cars.weird...

I have never owned a '69-'70 Shelby but since middle school, I have thought those were about the coolest looking cars of the era (yes, beauty is in the eye of the beholder). The styling, design, ducts, how long and sleek, the stripe down middle of the side and not the lower rocker, the wheels, the many "Shelby" features on the interior, the range of colors, all made a great package in my opinion.
       It has been said that older cars are becoming more static works of art than useable forms of transportation. If true and I'm not (too) alone in my opinion, maybe the '69-70s see a bump in value. Make mine Grabber Green like the one in the "People Will Talk," advertisement.
