Not Ranked
Perhaps his guidebooks are incomparable, but i find it difficult to believe he breaks down 289's only into 260/289's and W&S/R&P. Quite a few 289 R&P's are worth values ranging from the 300's to several millions, since some are race cars and contain various illustrious histories.
Those would certainly justify a special class, not unlike the various 427 Comp's.
Further, a knowledgable analyst would also note and distinguish that there have been "various" sources of "correct" completion cars: AC (COB/COX/CSX), McCluskey (CSX), Shelby (CSX), etc. All of which are quite differently sourced and have different and valid documentation trails.
Perhaps the fiberglas spec. race-cars ought to be unique.
Even the MKIV has important distinguishing and value variances occuring along its production curve. For instance, the Lightweights (early/later) are quite different and regularly race in Europe. Some Lightweights were near-MKIII's.
But, perhaps i am miss-reading the meaning of minutia and values.
Just my HO.
