Re: FIRST SHELBY G.T.500E CONVERTIBLE FETCHES WORLD RECORD $550,800

So my question is this. If this car is "worth" 500K+, what would say a Shelby built and titled as a 1968 be worth if you were to 1. remove the original parts and store them 2. replace them with all the hi-tech parts like this one had. Would not the "original" car be worth more since it was built in the era and you had all the correct parts? Lets say I had a 68 Mustang convertable. I have the money and the ability to purchase and install the parts the 500K+ car has. Am I doing much different then what they are doing now? Or is being "authorized" worth 450K more?
