Equipment
428/335hp, 4-speed, air conditioning, 10-spoke Shelby wheels, power steering and brakes, pushbutton radio, 3.00 Traction-Lok, tilt steering column, documented with a copy of the original build sheet and a Marti Report.
Condition
Good paint, chrome, interior and top. Restored like new and still in excellent, essentially show ready, condition. Represented as the matching numbers engine and surely one of the best around.
Market commentary
The combination of options and features packs tremendous appeal for this GT500KR Convertible, but the reported high bid takes pretty much every feature of the beautiful restoration and the options list into account. Had it sold at this bid the comment probably would have included something like "slightly favorable to the buyer", The seller's determination to take it home and look for another opportunity where someone slightly more generous turns up is understandable, but risky. Worldwide offered it at Houston in 2009 where it was bid to $170,000.
