Nice car. Should bring good money

[FL SAAC]

Certainly is a pretty car and according to the M statistics report only 165 fastbacks in this color

I've seen the car in person a few years back when Dan,the owner, was almost done restoring it. I bought some parts left over from his resto. It is a nice looking car not far from me.

The primer choices seem confusing?

Among other things.... 😬

Great job by the restorer to come up with all the detailing marks

Well the car should do well

Like detailed production marks 

and other finishes.

There are only a few of the maybe 50+ that were originally typically applied that were placed on the car so of them came with the restored parts they purchase I would guess while the others may have been borrowed from pictures on the internet. Looks like possibly one set were borrowed from a non-Shelby. But they never IMO make up for short comings elsewhere

Like detailed production marks 

Some borrowed from other non-Shelbys    but at least the drive line stripes are sort of correct for application. Other observers PLEASE don't copy the markings or how they were applied from this example

And as noticed, plenty of other details, finishes and choices appear to have been over looked. though their lack or incorrectness will likely be not known or ignored by the typical BATBidder

This one should be very interesting, because I suspect it is going to change some opinions of BaT very quickly

On a scale of 1 to 10, I would give the restorer a solid "1". He does show some creativity if nothing else.

😂😂😁

The detailing marks have become a litmus test for knowledge and more than often than not, people are failing

Go to all that trouble and the put Firestone tires on it???

Go to all that trouble and the put Firestone tires on it???

Sometimes the term wide oval is used to describe the factory tire which in this early 69 case would be the E 70 15 blackwall Goodyear tire. The reference in print  obviously causes confusion. I suspect that is what happened here. Typically after approximately 4/1/69 the  F 60 15 no size marked raised white letter tire was standard. Because wide oval is in print it is assumed that the Firestone tire is what is being talked about.

[Coralsnake]

The issues are a little more serious than tires  😉

150k is insanity for this car
