Default Re: Mint 1969 Shelby GT500 found under 40 years of dus

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Fast67VelleN2O</div><div class="ubbcode-body">The interior looks like 8500 miles. The FE engines did have crappy gaskets so I can see how it got oily. A good garage or barn find story goes a long way these days. I bet it brings around $175k just for the bragging rights on this one. </div></div>lol, i enlarged a few photos and it is as plain as day the the ribs on the rubber brake pedal are worn completely off on the right hand side. this only happens after around 80k miles on a power brake car.

it is impossible for the engine to leak that much oil and have that much crud on the front after only 8500 miles unless he removed the valve cover bolts and took it mud racing, lol


the auction company's do not guarantee mileage. they are required to record the auctions and simply say &quot;the mileage is 8500 so states the owner&quot; or &quot;the engine is newly rebuilt so states the owner.&quot; This releases them of all legal liability. they are only required to guarantee the title is transferable. the mileage is 108,531 guaranteed.

a restored original sheet metal one one is only around 120k.
