Original 67 owners manual

OK, lit freaks, I currently have a bunch of stuff on eBay,and am posting more each day, under the name apptelinc4ywx. Most of the stuff are parts and odds and ends and most have very small starting prices and reserves. All must go! need room for the 65 !
Some of the best stuff I am holding off on, one of which is an original 67 Shelby manual. It's really nice and I know it's real. Still has the perforated coupons in the back, etc. one minor spot where a piece of tape must have been on it at one time (not ripped), a small "squiggle" (like someone was testing a pen) and a small hole - like a thumbtack, but not exactly - but it is what it is!
Any ideas on pricing it in this crazy world of insane prices?
Anyone have a real 65 350 manual that they might like to trade for +/- cash?

Mike

Re: Original 67 owners manual

Ya know, the prices of 67 manuals is kind of hard to predict. I have seen all sorts of prices on weeeeeebay lately. Some have gone for 200+, others for 600+. Just really hard to actually pinpoint a value. Then again, i bought mine, which is as close to mint condish as possible, for an unbelieveably low price two years ago. I paid 35 plus shipping and, as you know, it still has its jack loftus ford warranty pouch!!! The guy i bought it from required an immediate paypal payment because he said he really needed the money for something and i actually caught the auction ten minutes after it was listed..thank god for buy it nows.

Best Regards,
Vern

Re: Original 67 owners manual

Hey Mike! I'm not trying to derail your thread, but you glossed right over the most important part! You're making room for 5 017????? It's coming home soon?!?!?!

Are you going to grace us with pictures and an update on the restoration?

Re: Original 67 owners manual

Vern,
you got the deal of the century, and I still want the Loftus envelope - you don't need it!

Josh,
Not coming home soon enough - I have so much crap in the garage and shed that it will take a while to get rid of it all, then I want to re-paint and install a lift for the new baby, along with moving shelving and other odds and ends to make it look more like a real garage.

Anyone local who wants a TV cabinet or Children's bedroom furniture - cheap!
How about my wifes grandmothers hutch?
This stuff is taking up valuable real estate!

Mike

Re: Original 67 owners manual

Sent you a Private Message/Trade deal offer. I've been sitting on the 65 owners manual that came in my 67 GT 350 when I bought it in 1971. And, the first 2 owners both bought the car at Jack Loftus Ford, I bought the car from the 2nd owner.
