[QUOTE="Fastfords, post: 5265920, member: 53650"] You also have to take into account that the GT-500s aren't even touched by Shelby or his shops, unlike the originals that were broken down on site. It's a marketing gimmick -- they slap Shelby (and a $15,000 market up) on the rear as they come off of the assembly line. FWIW, 68-69 Shelby's were built at A.O. Smith in Michigan. In an interview many years ago Carroll stated he never so much as set foot in that facility. Over the years many have made the arguement that they are not "true" Shelby's. Then again, some purists think only the 65-66 cars are real Shelby's. To each his own. I think anyone who purchases a new GT500 for it's future value is betting on a long shot. Perhaps I am the only one who has purchased/ordered a car because I like it and intend to enjoy it for many years to come. Until I can afford a Ford GT that is. LOL. [/QUOTE]
