Yep, just like those tail fin cars did.

Prices on anything wouldn't rise if people didn't want them regardless of whether its at an auction, ebay or elsewhere.

The Big Fin cars have their followers and that was also a neat era in automotive history. The Big Fin cars will likely not be coming back anytime soon.

Leave it to our government and the Green Czars the only cars that are comming in our direction will be battery powered egg shaped vehicles later changed to peddle powered when the Green Czars decide batterys create to many environmental issues.

The best in automotive history I'm afraid is behind us which is why auto enthusiasts are clinging to the classics.

With only 16,000 miles and allegedly no "trauma" to the car, I wonder when and why it was painted? Bummer. It's only original once.

Well age can take a toll on a paint finish without trauma. Perhaps the original owner or predecesor owners just wanted a color change to the "Shelby" color scheme. Who knows.
