Hi Guys,

I hope everyone had a great Christmas (or Holiday).

My 21 year old son wanted to get me the ShelbyGT book for Christmas. But, he found out they are not available anymore.

So I was wondering if someone has an extra copy or sold their car and would want to part with their copy of the book.

Cheers and have a Shelby 2012!!!

Thanks!!!

Was a book.  I guess there is a book but it's nearly impossible to get one.

I have one as well but also not for sale.

Amy did them for the SGT and the Hertz cars and there also was one for Carroll 85th birthday . They was a very small run done and they were a little expensive. I was very happy buying all three books. Some people were not were not happy since most of the books were just photographs . Some people felt there should have been more writing in them. Some people felt they were very over priced......I am so glad that I bought all three books. I think these books will be highly collectible.

I would guess the shelby GT book to be worth at least $75 to $100 if you get a couple people bidding on them they could fetch more.

I'm not sure if they made a bunch more of the Shelby GT book than the GT-H book as they did the cars.  I know it sounds crazy, but a few of the GT-H books have sold recently between $300 and $410.  Insane, but that is what they have been selling for recently as there are only so many available and will never be printed again.

Nobody ever "got one".  This was a book produced by Shelby in 2009 I believe which you could buy from Shelby.  However, not many were done.  I don't know what the final number was.

Edit.
Yep, both the Shelby GT book and the GT-H book came out in April 2009.  Original topic on it here:

http://www.teamshelb...__fromsearch__1

Wow, that's a pretty interesting read from 2009.  People were complaining about spending $60 back then for this small paperback, but now there are those willing to pay hundreds.  I guess those who complained in 2009 should have bought it and doubled their money now!  Supply and demand! :)
