Strange that no one kept a photo of the title with Shelby's name.  I wonder how many other classic Shelby Mustangs have a similar Becker story.

Seems like more questions than answers with this car.  Does it have the original engine, gearbox and rear end?  Original wheels, oil cooler and smog system?  No photos or documents proving ownership by Shelby besides the email from Becker to Mathews?

The seller said in the comments that he will pay for container shipment from Greece to anywhere in the US, and there should be no import tax for a vehicle that was manufactured or previously registered in the US.  I wonder what the car looked like 26 years ago when Shelby/Becker owned it.

Why would the police remove the tag in the 1970s?

Interesting story about the car being left at a service station in 1971.  How much does having a reproduction Shelby tag detract from value?

That was in 2022, but the car failed to sell for $300,000 at Mecum last month.

This BaT dealer does nice photos and videos but avoids answering questions directly and always has a lot of (related?) cheerleaders in the comments.  I've heard 95% of their BaT auctions sell to buyers that never comment, ask a question or visit the car for an inspection.  I guess social media promotion does wonders.  Does the car have the correct engine/date code, carburetor and SPEC rear end?

Why didn't this car go higher than $141k?

Anyone know where this was filmed?

I am looking to buy a 1967 Shelby over-the-counter horn button foil that says "Shelby Cobra" with the snake logo but no GT500 or GT350 text.

I am looking to buy a 1967 Shelby over-the-counter (OTC) steering wheel horn button foil that says "Shelby Cobra" with the snake image but no "GT500" or "GT350" text.  It can be original or reproduction.
