Shelby made 34 race-prepared GT350 Rs for 1965 so it’s one of the most sought-after Mustang variants and also one of the most expensive ones. It’s considered by many collectors to be the holy grail. Wearing chassis number 5R096, this car spent years winning races across Canada before moving to the United States and receiving a full restoration. It ultimately ended up in the hands of a collector in Switzerland. Its history is well documented and full of first-place finishes and it’s in excellent condition so it sold for $720,000 at an RM Sotheby’s auction in 2018.
