Caroll Shelby’s ultra low mile GLHS is going on the block. Estimates are in the $40,000 to $60,000 range.
Hooston, we have a problem.
Unless this is a charity auction those estimates are about $30,000 to $40,000 too high. This is car 086, a stock Turbo I car with Turbo II upgrades just like almost every other GLHS sold. It just happens to have been owned by Shelby (he did love these beasts dearly).
Caroll with 001. My! What meaty tires you have there Shel!
For $40,000 to $60,000 I want Shelby’s actual GLHS. Car 001. Car 001 has a Hans Hermann 16v cylinder head and other “experimental” modifications as well as having no external GLHS markings and one off Shelby wheels. That actually makes it special.
But who am I? What do I know? To me these auctions are just a bunch of rich old farts circle jerking.
