I'm enjoying following the dialog on this auction, given the history behind it. I expect the selling price to be much higher, truthfully I hope the current owner of #2128 ends up with it.

Interesting artifact. Amusing how last bid as I read it at this moment in time has the number 289 in it.
I bet someone will eventually bid 2128 also. :) Gary
Yes no doubt!
This door for CSX3052 sold a couple months ago. I tried to get car owner and seller together, but I don't think they came together.

I'm liking that door! Great wall art! But ultimately, better reunited with the original car.

Do you know if it is it the same guy selling the deck lid?

I don't think so. The door was in Portland, OR and it looks like the deck lid is in Laguna Niguel, California.
Sold for $11,500.00
Wow!!!
Sounds like it's ultimately headed to the Shelby American collection in Co. to join the rest of CSX2128. 8)
And of all people Allen Grant bid 2128. That sure was fitting. Gary
I would agree with deathsled on the price WOW ! but consider the history of that piece ! Is this 2128 at Bridgehampton in '64 ?
from the registry it says that 2128 was last raced by S.A in June '64, then sold to Harrison in August '64, this photo is 3 races
later, did Shelby offer support like this to private owners after the cars were sold ?
