Shelby Artwork
 
Was checking out ebay for Shelby "stuff", came across this litho by Harold Cleworth titled "Showroom Condition". I have the same piece at home... think I bought it through Road & Track for about $370.00.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...tem=1876622013

The seller claims that he has recently had it appraised for about $4500!!! - Has anybody seen one of these up for sale recently and can say what price it brought?

Can't believe they have appreciated that much.

Thanks,

Dan

Dan,
If it turns out to be worth that kind of money, how would you like to double your money on the price you paid??????

Al,

Like the outlaw Josey Wales said, "Don't piss on my back and tell me its raining".

Mine even has a lower number '350 of 500' - so it should be worth $4750 - apparently no bidders to date on ebay.

My wife bought me that one for Xmas a few years ago--better check and make sure it's still in the storage tube in my closet! If she's auctioning it off she could at least split the money with me.:3DSMILE:

Dan,
Didn't think you'd go for that....
Got the title transfered from FLA. and ordered the plates today.
I'm sending it out for snow tires tomorrow and I'm in business...
Are Cobras front or rear wheel drive?? Don't want to look like a goof and put them on the wrong end..

Al,

I think 'FIA' meant 'Front, Independant, Altered' so I guess you have the front wheel drive version of the Cobra, with independant suspension, altered for street use. I personally like the look of 4 snow tires myself, but some of the purists might give you a little grief!

Wonder What This Means?
 
Per the listing:

"Artist verbal appraisal in 1999 put the value at $4500.00."

I wonder if the artist would be a reliable independent appraiser?
