Did anyone see the 65 gt350 sale on recent Barrett Jackson auction?  It looked like a great car but it only sold for $220,000.  I was surprised.

I saw that, plus several others in Scottsdale, this was the best bargain I saw of the 1965 GT350s:

But all things Shelby were way down in Scottsdale, too many for sale and too few buyers all at the same time.  There were two very rare color '70 GT500 SCJ 'verts that sold for way under $200K, even the Boss9s were way down too.  Mustangs in general also bargains at Scottsdale this year.

Wow.  The one at RM Auction looked like a good deal as well.

Non-original engine and the replacement engine configuration was not as delivered . (Assuming I'm reading the description correctly)
I'm no expert but it seemed kind of a mix of old and new stuff. Still, it was a really cool looking car with some unique owner history. It hammered at 220 but totaled $242,000.  Less than I thought it would.

Yeah, too many Shelbys and lots of Mustangs. I missed the Mustang bargains, the two we were bidding on went through our numbers...

_{It would be so cool to have a 65 setting in the garage beside my 2011 gt350.  I wonder how many people have both cars?}

[cobrakidz]

I'm trying......

What do you own now and what are you looking to purchase?

I am restoring my '66 GT350 while I play with the 2011 GT350.

License plate frame on both cars:  "My Other Car Is A Shelby GT350".

Gratifying!

Its gonna be strange when all of our S197 body styles suddenly become "old" !

Hey, I will trade you my 65' tribute for your 66' so you can have a first year matching set Yeah, I figured you were laughing at this. Would love to see pics on the progress of the restoration. Well, I can at least see what it looks like if I owned both GT350's. All I have to do is look at my avitar.

I know you would think such a classic would be sold at a higher price

[Rev Dennis]

Here is a "real" 1965. Complete and perfect. I took this at the car show in Oaks near Philly a few weekends ago. Very nice.

Does anyone know where I can get a strut tower brace for a 2011 GT500?

You might try posting that request on the 2011 GT500 part of this forum here:
http://www.teamshelb...t500-2010-2012/

this area and thread are about '65-'70 GT350s.

GREAT! they shouldn't be at those stupid prices in the first place as its like BJ to have done this many years ago... most REAL car guys and ladies do not have 7 figure bank accounts so the more the values come down the better
