Title: SFM6S1825 GT350H on auction - Automatic, 148K miles
Post by: 6s1640 on January 14, 2019, 02:37:34 PM
Hi all,

Does anyone know about this car?  The seller does not say much about the car.

Seller description:

Well maintained Shelby, Owned for 30 years, put 5000 miles since we bought car.  Numbers match and not raced.

Good morning,

I realize this is an ancient thread but I'm doing research on this car. I've seen this car for sale essentially all year (SFM6S1825). It may be that it's been on the market for many years having remained unsold. Would appreciate anyone's thoughts on her. FSBO now on a popular collector car website so she's easy to find.

Best regards ~ Don

Hi Don

Here is some information on 6s1825

By the way those black and gold bad boys are great cars to pursue and purchase, some even call them blue chip investments. But always remember that they are meant to be driven.

One of the "real ones".

Best of luck on your endeavors

Good evening,

I echo your sentiment, re "always remember that they are meant to be driven". When and if this (or the right) Shelby GT350H comes along she will be driven. Often. And shared. Fortunately I live in a great place to enjoy such a car (NWFL).

The gold Le Mans stripe -over- black GT350H was my father's all-time favorite car. And from the registry entry that you provided this Shelby's provenance becomes a little more interesting. My father special-ordered his black '66 Mustang GT (K-Code) convertible from the Ford garage in Grantsville, MD. That this Shelby connects to "home" brings a smile. We'll see how this works out. Hopeful. I've been looking for the "right" car for a long time.

Thank you for your good wishes and for taking the time to reply. All the best to you.

Best regards ~ Don

WOW, spent 13 Days in Transit to the Dealer and needed new Brakes at just 9000 Miles?

Hi all,  I missed saving an image the first time around.  Saving for posterity.

Can anyone find more images for the record.

First do not know anything specific about this car other than what was shown in past advertisements and I likely missed some.

Don you'll need to get someone with experience and knowledge to get a set of eyes on the car in person after a decent look at some pictures so that you might eliminate the expense and time to looking at the car in person just in case it does not measure up.  Even if you do have some experience its always helpful to have another set of eyes to find stuff and another voice to help keep a clear head and focus. Plenty of threads on the whole process and the value of such a process.

Lots of cars out there that are much less than what they are advertised as. Finding the diamond or rough diamond in the lot takes effort, time and luck. Yes there is likely a buyer somewhere for every car. Just doesn't have to be the car for you.  Good luck with your choices

Anyone keep track of all the cars that have been for sale - just wondering which car or cars have the record for being up for sale the most in a single year or maybe over the last decade? Just might be fun to know.

Maybe heavy60chevy has some recent photos.

Hi Brian,

Thank you for doing that.  Now the images are saved for anyone in the future that wants to see the car.  Otherwise the web links expire and the images are lost, just like the link in the first post.

Thanks

I wonder what that big hole to the left of the wiper switch is?
