This is Eleanor's big brother from the movie gone in 60 seconds. I have a 1968 Shelby GT500KR 4 Speed in Lime Gold. This is the real deal R code Shelby. A very rare car in a desirable color. This Shelby has been off the road since 1986. The owner before me purchased it in 1971 off a used car dealership. The motor is currently out of the car. The block has the correct stampings. The GT500KR Shelbys did not get stamped blocks from this plant. This car needs complete restoration. Very rarely a real Shelby project hits the market. I am considering selling this car. Wanted to put it out there and see what kind of interest I get. Please, Serious buyers only. Price is $120k. I may consider a partial trade to help out.

I think that will all buff out. Mostly.

Hello Wise Ones of SAAC

Assuming this is an authentic and documentable example, what's a likely price range for a project in this condition?

Thanks for educating this newbie.

Contrary to the ad, the block was not original to the car. Thats probably a $70-90k car on the retail market

Now that's what I call a project! I think on the low end of Pete's estimate, but on BAT, who knows...
