Unique Shelby Convertible for sale

[golfer]

Colin, you are correct it is Black Jade or Jade Black, I just don't remember how Ford labeled it and I am not in the same location as the car. When I called it triple black, that is just the moniker I have heard and seen used with descriptions of this car so thats why I used the term.

Regarding the comments someone made related to the 67 RS Camaro. It scored that high in a non-stock class, and it is a very well done car as you can tell by the list of shows it has won. As for the price, I would pay more for an original 67 RS car in this condition, but there is no way someone could build a car this nice for anywhere near the asking price. By the way, if you like 67 Camaros, there are two original 67 Z28s that are pretty nice on the site that remain in a private collection.

If anyone is interested in the Shelby contact Chip Wright through this site or at 770-365-1872

Really? You would pay that much? Hmmmm..

Engine shot of just such a car. Still has the original T3 headlights behind the doors.



First place Stock class Carlisle 2004.



You have a lot of nice cars on your site and like you said couldn't build one for the price.

Sorry for stealing the thread.

You mean these two?



I was wondering where those two Mcguire cars ended up!

I think I may have seen this Shelby at B-J about 3-4 years ago. It was in the special roped off section next to the auction stage. That has to be the nicest Shelby drop top I've seen...period. The lucky guy that gets this car will truly be one happy Mo-Fo.

IF that's the same black jade drag pack GT 500 Shelby convertible I have been following since it sold at Russo and Steele in August of 2001 with VIN number 9F03R482667 for 103K and later sold to a private party from a dealer down south for 150K a year later it doesn't have an original engine or any of the expensive original parts left on it from when it won the Thoroughbred award. The Shelby sold at Russo was also represented as a show car winning 445 out of 450 possible points and one of one.

Through several owners all the hard to find irreplaceable parts fell off and were sold. I know people who bought some of the parts off the car and know people who almost bought the car(including myself)until they had an expert look at the car and determined it is no longer a throughbred level car due to the missing parts.

Hopefully Chip's Shelby is not 9F03R482667 because every senior head MCA judge I have spoke to recently about 9F03R482667 does not consider it to be a throughbred any longer?

Great info Les. Hope to see you in Vegas some day. I have #76 now, you going to the show in Vegas early next year?

[Les Quam]

Stuart,

Are you referring to 5S076? If so you got one fantastic car. I missed owning it by a day because I am an idiot.

[Stuart Adams]

Yes.

WOW !!! Now thats real information, need to know information.What would make someone sell parts off a concours car! My mouth hit the floor on this information on a car of this caliber.Great car gone Bad !!
I have learn you still need to check even the Best of the Best car.
Sold a Boss 429 a few years back that was a concours car with NO fluids from a very well known restorer and when fluids were put in the car, it just poured out of the block.What a lesson learned !!
