About the car; seller tells me doortags are often changed to an new one during restorations.
Front tag is in place that should prove it to be a real Shelby, wouldn't it?
Original doortag is not with the car.

At least the pass front floor has been replaced as evidenced by floor drain.  I never understood why someone wouldn't put a correct looking patch/pan in a high dollar car.   Especially if they are leaving the other side alone.

Where do you see that the pass side is different?

Welcome to our group!..... My recommendation if purchasing a car stateside from Europe would be to find someone from this group that can put some (EYES ON) the car you are interested in to help you with a decision before you purchase blind.

Thanks!!

Well, in 4 weeks it'll arrive in Holland at the Mustang dealer. He is an enthousiast and I know the guy and trust him. I know my stuff about Mustangs (have had several) but like to lean about Shelby parts and how to recognize them.
So I can check out the car myself. For the technical things I have a good friend that knows where to look.
Off course, I can ask a Shelby fan from our Mustang club to take a look at the car when I decide to go for a Shelby.

Well its marked sold. That nice shinny new door tag is a bit concerning....

Why is that? Could this only be part of the restoration?

Hi, I'm from Holland and maaaayybe I will buy a 1969/1970 Shelby. So before that's going to happen, I try to learn al lot.
I saw this nice looking car, can you tell me more according to the pictures?
