Question Advice on selling original '65 SC 427
My friend in Tokyo has an original, mint condition1965 Shelby Cobra SC 427. All papers including CA title and notarized authentication papers signed by Carroll Shelby himself. VIN CSX-3059 and 15 miles on the odometer! This was one of 27 cobras built at Carroll Shelbys Van Nuys plant in 1965 Eone of which was shipped to Fords experimental unit for outfitting and entry in the Daytona 500 (CSX 3027). It didnt make it in time and was wrapped and stored. #3059 was an alternate chassis and also stored. It is in absolutely perfect condition.

#3027 was bought at auction for $510,000, and indications are that #3059 should be of similar worth.

Any idea of how to reach collectors interested in such a vehicle?
