This car was on Ebay for probably six months. It didn't sell for 195K either. It was also painted the incorrect color if I recall correctly.  I think it was Bob who knew a bit about the car's history.

....... and I believe it had been wagged around on other websites for over a couple of years or so. I first saw it advertised at least 2 years ago on either Hemmings or AT Classic.

As stated the car (#1210) was repainted the wrong color (a typo on a color reference list when repainted) and a seller was implying that it was a special order/rare color version with some doctored paper work.

There have been threads on this car and issue in the past... the first was on the SAAC forum 1.0 that imploded there is one on this forum too...

I believe the car sold. The person who painted the car and owned it many was given the wrong paint code from Marti. In my opinion, he did not try to deceive anyone.

^^^ Yikes, that must have been an uncomfortable conversation 

Love the unusual colors, grey, bronze, silver, etc.

As long as no deception happened...

I have turned down 67 Shelbys that were either painted the wrong color or were the "Wrong" color.

Just to add, my first Shelby was some sort of Lime Green, I painted it blue....that was in the say of 67 shelbys for 3500.00 all day long, I thought nothing of doing that back then....my personal taste is that I like the original colors on cars, but I rather really find my favorite colors....like red, white and or blue...I have been looking for a white 67 for some time now and I cannot believe how many that are white that are not original.

My color is wrong...... as long as the bugs are good with it, so am I.

  While we're on the subject, I was at a local (Chicago area) car show many years ago and a silver 67' was in attendance.  The story was that that particular car was used at Elkhart Lake WI as the pace car for a season.

My Shelby is the right color for me. I would never repaint it that ugly lime gold as long as I own it. It is an original color offered. Acapulco blue with white stripes with a stunning paint job. I have no use for trailer queens or hard nose purist.  I find them boring.
There was some misrepresentation with the vehicle. I just don't remember all the details.

Mine was originally Lime Gold as well....... now Raven Black. 

I have heard that Lime Gold was the most repainted / changed color of that time.

It was a trendy popular color when new - 25% +/- of the '67 Shelby's were Lime gold ! 

The color didn't weather well, looked bad quickly, and trends change. 

As Kenny Beers (RIP) was quoted saying in reply to someone's question about what was the most common color on '67 Shelby's "Red formerly Lime Gold". 

The car I had was repainted a Corvette dark blue when I got it, when I redid it I put it back to the original Dark Moss Green - took me a while to get use to it.

Fresh, high quality, two-stage Lime Gold with White LeMans stripes looks pretty good to me now.
