VIN (Vehicle Identification Number):    67400F5A01528

This vehicle is perfect project car for someone who wants to make there own "Eleanor". This was my dads high school car he's the 2nd owner. Needs some love but will become something extra special if your willing. 
There's minimal rust. Engine is disassembled heads and intake manifold are off. Door panels are also off but we do have them, metal door plate is also off but we also have. Body is clean but paint has some chips. Really this is a beautiful piece of American history. Make it yours!!!!

Eleanore,,, :are you nutz ? 

[Ldouble619]

Is that a real Shelby?

[honker]

from the VIN he shows, and checking the registry it's a GT500 ?

That's where people that don't know much should stay away. That's a CONTENDER not a PRETENDER OOOOOH YEAH

Cool car...I would give the guy decent cash to leave me(and my hand tools,liquid wrench,etc.)alone with the car for a half hour......

Thanks for posting.

I didn't realize it had black GT500 side stripe on it until I saved the side view and did a brightness adjustment. The engine block looks very dry, as if it's been sitting unassembled for many years. Hopefully it is a good candidate for a rebuild. Maybe some surface rust but overall definitely worth saving. Forget the Eleanor comment, the buyer is just trying to market the car to a larger audience. Too bad they didn't post a photo of the VIN plate. I'm guessing no Z stamp.

If you bought/restored it you'd only be about 30 grand upside down when you were done.

Only someone that doesn't know how to work on there cars or has to pay for every little thing, would be upside down... Not myself Besides that's where he started not where he would sell it!

If it is going to take $62,000 to buy it, yup.

I always chuckle when people that are selling a car water it down and take pictures thinking it makes it look better.

That's called the 'wet look'!

Depends on what your time is valued at.  For someone that could do all the work themselves, it will easily consume 1000-1500 hours to do a full restoration.  Maybe a little less depending on how nice the body is.

This is what I predict it would cost to have a nice show car.....if you want to take it to the top, obviously the cost goes up.

$62k - Car
$15k for the motor if its all there and salvageable
$35-40K in body and paint work
$10-15k in Misc (trans, rear resto included)
= $132,000 "best case"

That car is begging to be saved...
