Per the Marti reports neither car has ac. Colors & other items on the reports match up with the cars. Not sure rhere is anything additional I need to look into on these.

Thank you to everyone for all of the responses. To be clear both cars are available, I would love to keep the KR but I believe the value will exceed my budget.

I'll have copies of the Marti reports late tomorrow or early Sunday so questions such as ac (doubtful) can get answered. A couple of you asked me to get in touch, as soon as I have the reports I'll give you a ring.

The cars are located in S Fl & are in storage in a private fully equipped shop. I would like to get both running and driving, but unfortunately I'm not a mechanic. I'm in the Atlanta area & my real job is going to keep me from getting to S Fl until March. Thankfully I don't have time constraints or any rush. Apologies if I gave anyone that impression.

Thanks again

Thank you.

If anyone is interested below is a link to a few exterior pics from when they were cranked ~ 5 yrs ago.

1968 Shelby GT350/500/500KR / Value Estimate

Hi. I just registered a minute or so ago, my uncle always told me to check with this forum if I needed advice on Shelby's.

Unfortunately my uncle passed & I've been asked to lead the sale of his cars, 1968 (obviously) GT500KR Convertible 4 speed highland green, black & black and a 1968 GT350 convertible with the shelby paxton supercharger 4 speed blue with a white top & black interior.

Both cars were fully restored and placed in storage approximately 10 years ago. Around 5 years ago both were taken out of storage, cranked & my uncle at the time declined a real cash offer of $300k for the cars.

I know pictures are preferred & I'll figure out how to attach a link or something, but honestly they both just look like correctly restored cars. Any ideas on what the value would be on these? I have the Marti reports, is there a preferred appraiser the marketplace values?

Thanks in advance.
