It makes sense that the dealers will be the purchasers. Shelby won't sell to mere mortals, but first to Shelby Distribution then to one of the authorized dealers. That dealer preps the car for the end user (which may involve nothing being done, but usually includes power train.) So the real question is "are real individuals names attached to the purchases" or are they spec builds? My guess is it is probably some of both.
My impression, right or wrong, was that Mr. Becker was marketing them to the SAAC Forum and Club Cobra in order to sell them to individuals like me. So, how many were REALLY sold?
