@Vinnie_B Another cool Super Snake for sale, this one was Speed Phenom's old Super Snake, it has to be one of the only widebody/holeshot/signature editions around.

I seen that on ebay earlier. Its really unfortunate that it has been so abused! I wouldnt touch that with a 10FT pole.......NO WAYYYYYYYY!! Stay clear of that snake @2011 gtcs That guy is ditching this thing for a reason!

If it wasnt for me just starting a new business and trying to get it off its feet a Shelby 1000 would be my next edition!

Indeed, that speed phenom kid had a little too much fun with it, it's a killer build. It's just been beat to hell. Chris Ruby who use to work at Shelby American knows all about that car. He commented on the Facebook post I made.

Agreed, he should have just spent the extra money and had Shelby build the engine to the 1000 spec

I know now its definitely to late, but I figured when he had his widebody package installed, he might have still had an opportunity, either way it doesn't matter. It still really sucks Shelby closed the door on everything for the 07 to 14 GT500.

This was the last video I saw of that car.

For the right amount of money it would still be an investment. Its a nice car (Extremely Rare) but not for 150K if that motor is getting ready to go. That would definitely hurt the value...............

And at 150k I wouldn't want to have to dump more money into it. I would think the tune Shelby puts on the Holeshot cars is still fairly conservative, especially since it has to run on 91 pump gas. You think the engine is down on compression or a rod is maybe getting ready to leave the chat lol. I'm suprised JFKauto hasn't tried to buy it.

Agreed from an investment perspective, I'd still want a 13/14 holeshot super snake no matter what.
