NYG, tell me if I have this right ...
Per an earlier post we have "24 pages of sour grapes" with Evan's CSX being sold for $249K, and where, a sucker from AUS may buy it.

Does that about sum it up

sour grapes is not the price. sour grapes are all the Cobra guys Evan has dumped on.

he's moved on. left the Cobra world... for now.

BTW, did anyone see this alloy CSX4349 for sale on the SAAC Forum:

CSX4349 Aluminum Cobra with Shelby 428 motor

Asking $180G's. I'm really not a big fan of green. Not my favorite color, but better than beige.

Just a followup on this earlier post of mine. CSX4349, which is an aluminum bodied CSX, sold on eBay in January 2016 for $150,000. Billy Andrews of HRE built the car, same shop that takes care of Evan's CSX:

These are the simplest cars on the planet. Even a one armed monkey could take care of these cars.

Well....they are pretty basic. But Patrick, even you have to admit they have their "special issues". Not like working on my old Galaxy! And remember, each and every one is different!

So, Shelby is also selling a demo alloy 9000-series Coupe for $650,000:

1969 Shelby Daytona 50th Anniversary Coupe for sale #1813581 | Hemmings Motor News

I realize this has zippo to do with Evan's Cobra, but doesn't Shelby have to keep some demo cars around to give rides to prospective customers?

The FIA roadsters plus the Coupe = $1,280,000 (asking prices).

But it's down $0.06 today or 40%!

I guess those badges aren't selling for as much as they used to.

Gosh, I hope Kirkham gets their money upfront.

So, roughly 15MM shares @ $0.09 = $1,350,000. Say $150,000 to Patrick and Jamo for legal fees and for $1.5MM we could own Shelby American!

Edit: This assumes that 100% of shares of Shelby are public.

Wouldn't work. Most of the shares are owned by the family and execs.

Weren't you all saying a few months ago that there was some conspiracy to raise the stock price? The shares were worth more printed and hanging on the wall but now the cost of printing (any stock) has gone through the roof.

IIRC, 75% of Shelby was sold to a 3rd party company and then they took it public. I think we could make everyone a deal that they couldn't refuse. Here's my lead negotiator:

I actually own 1,000 shares for fun. Tried to get a stock certificate to hang on the wall. $500 for a certificate from SAI. No, I didn't do it.

When you need cash, then cash is king! I'm sure somebody is saying "get as much out of these cars as we can".

Good for Evan! Do we know who bought it yet? I know..."in the Registry"! But it won't be there for a while...
