Look at pic 8 of the fender tag. Look at the red paint in the engine bay part of the fender. Look at the "finish" of the black paint around the Shelby fender tag. Obviously not a good job when refurbished..... I don't understand why some do not spend the time to refinish major parts of a car right.

My questions is, do you think it would have sold better (higher Price) if it went back to the original Limegold when they refurbished it?

I'm surprised it didn't bring more, with the rare 302 Hi-Po and all.  ::)

Yes, I know.  It is too late to change the Color.  It will sell at No Reserve so I ask......would it have brought a Higher Price if it was Limegold instead of Red?  You pretty much know it will sell between $99,000 to $140,000 on the 21st.  Do you think if it was Limegold, would it go Higher on the 21st.?
