Default im in looove

i think its safe to say im in love with this Shelby, its black, its got a big block, and its done right.... life is great and at 75,000 ill take out a loan. although the front is all red oxide ( should be black) and got a little carried away with the paint codes on the rear ( it should have one x in yellow, a 8 underlined, and under the rearend, the flat spot should say FT,) but hey i still like it. Although im not sure if that air cleaner is correct, i think thats for a 69-70?

Thats a B-E-A-U-TIFUL car. But is it un-american to say that i dont like the wood grained dash and steering wheel, because of it's "legend status"?

i agree, i have never been a fan of 68 deluxe interior, or the 68 steering wheel, it looks like the one my mom had in her nova!! but yeah i dont care for the woodgrain either, im partial to 67 stainless look

Stainless or gloss black, i realize the mustang only came with a flat(camera) black finish but gloss looks really good, especially in the interior.

yes the gauge clusters,as well as the glove box section was a black camera case finish, the actuall metal dash was a gloss of like a charcoal black. are you talking about the plastic pieces being gloss black looking good or what?

I'm afraid you are going to have to dig in your pockets a bit further than 75K. The reserve isn't met yet, and there are still 6 days to go. She sure is a purdy thang though.

Soaring,

I'm with you! I'll be willing to bet that the reserve isn't even CLOSE to being met yet. That car will probably bring six digits, EASY!!!!

if it gets anything near what my dads did get on barrett jackson ( about a year ago he sold his 428 cobra jet gt convertable and the guy he sold it to took it to barrett jackson and got 96,000 for it andmy dad only sold it for 45,000) than its possible to get that much. You need to relize its not a hugely uncommon car like my dads 1 of 12 and only 6 left known to exsist cj, but if you get the right bidding it could very well see that much
