The real bidders dropped out below $50k and no one could possibly believe these replicas were really worth more than the real '60's Shelby products.
I never even considered that aspect before Ned & Terry, good point. For me, I figured the SR would go for 50K, maybe 60K...but that was not only rediculous, but I feel insulting to all those folks that oen period correct, genuine GT350s.

As I learn more and more about these falsely inflated prices, it pisses me off more and more.

It used to be about the love of the car, now its all about da bling-bling.
