In the early 70's Shelby's were just used cars. I bought my 66 GT350H car with 40,000 miles on it in Jan 71 for $1,000. I found out later he would have taken $750 for it. Still got it and hopefully it will be finished this summer. I also bought another 66 for $2500 in 1978 because I couldn't talk anyone else into buying it. Had been changed to a four speed and had 67 buket seats, one of those street "R' front valances and the rear seat was gone and it had the fiberglass cover ( don't know if it was original or not, but I'm guessing repro). Sold it in 1979 for $5,000 to Bill Collins. Two that got away were 68 GT500KR convertible 4 speed, mint for $500 in 1972, guys girl friend got pregnant and he had to sell it to get married, didn't want a "big block" and turned it down. But the one I still kick myseld in the A$$ for is CSX2017, 14,000 mile red Cobra for $3500 or $2,000 if I traded in my 66. Didn't do it because it didn't have a roof. Had Webbers in a box in the trunk, still had Blue Streaks on it. To this day my brother still reminds me. Same guy taht had this car had a broken and damaged 427 ex race car for $1500, needed right front suspension, fender, grille etc, and the engine had spun a main bearing, car was rough and run real hard. Somebody gave me a box that had an owners manual in it in 1971 or so. It may be an original, I'll check based on this information
