Why do I see a lot of 67 GT500's for sale but not 67 GT350's

[Fastback66]

I've been searching ads for well over a year looking for a 67 GT350 4 speed, during my search I've noticed quite a few 67 GT500's for sale but only a very small number of 1967 GT350"s. Search ebay, Hemmings, Dupont Registry or even this site and you'll see a at least 7 or more GT500's for sale at this very moment... maybe one or two GT350's. This seems to be a common trend in the last year or two...are 350's traditionally sold via other means, sold so fast they're not listed very long or are guys just holding on to them because prices are low?

Two reasons..
They produced twice as many GT 500s

And most buyers of a GT 500 realizes they're a pain to put up with.

Kind of like you.           I couldn't resist the set up. Just a tease. You know I love you Bret.

I figured as much but It's also interesting to note that even with the higher numbers and "pain to put up with, " 500's are still valued significantly higher than 350's.

Fastback66- The muscle car world leans in the direction of bigger is better. Look at any of the offerings of the other companies. Hemis vs 383,440s- Hemis are king. 427 copo Camaros-Vettes vs 350 LT1s most would take an aluminum ZL 1 elephant motor. 427 Ford,Cobra Jets, Boss cars, vs...289,302,351 w... Many look for Big Brother performance. Don't get me wrong there are many way cool small blocks from all the companies they just DONT have that KICK like a big block has.

It seems the price difference between the GT 350's and the GT 500's closed-up in recent years and has remained that way.

Have there been std/normal 1967 GT 500's hit 240K like the 67 350 at Mecum last year?
Price was somewhere around that figure, correct?
Seems 67 gt 350's are passing up a 66 now?

Prices are up across the board for muscle cars ,but there is distinct separation between small blocks and big blocks. It gets even wider when 4 speeds, A/C, special colors are involved.

I believe you're referring to car #18 that sold at Kissimmee in 2017. Not only was that an outstanding car, but it was completed on the first day of production (along with 0003). This explains the price a bit.

There was an original Paxton equipped GT350 that sold for over $280K at Mecum Indy a few years back as well.

Again, both are a bit of an anomaly, IMO. However, prices continue to be strong.

And that's the way it was back then. Bigger was more fun. When I drove 6S2378 back in the summer of 74 it was a disappointment power wise to our BB's. Ended up my wifes car for the summer. In today's world I'd still lean towards a GT 500. Old habits are hard to break in the Shelby world.

Fewer cars and more fun to drive.
