[QUOTE="19COBRA93, post: 4865291, member: 10462"] I tend to agree, however, I don't think the GTH's and the Shelby GT's are going to be as collectable as this (atleast value wise). Collectors aren't simply looking at the Shelby name, they're looking at the package as a whole. The uniqueness, power, build numbers, etc. It's the same as saying, what's more valuable, a '66 GT350H, or a '69 GT500? One built by Shelby, the other built by Ford. The GT500 will always be more valuable. I think unless Mr Shelby passes in the near future, the Shelby GT's will go pretty soft, and the GT500's will hold pretty strong. If he dies, the value of anything with his name on it will go through the roof, IMO. I also think there are a lot of collectors banking on the GTH's and GT's to be collector cars, and there will be a bunch of them stashed away. Unfortunately that won't help their value. Just like the '94 pace car convert cobras. A LOT of people thought they were going to be very valuable down the road so a LOT of them got stashed away. Now, you can pretty much find 5 at any time with less than 100 miles on them and the values gone because there are so many available still in new condition. This is more of an observation than my opinion. [/QUOTE]
