Default Original Shellby Found in quarry - VIN for sale

I dont collect cars and honestly not into cars at all. I do however enjoy scuba diving and have been scuba diving since 1983. I am a technical scuba diver which means I enjoy the deep, the dark and the ice, the wrecks and the quarries. For years I have hear rumors of an Original being stolen and ditched in a quarry in the Uxbridge MA area. Some years ago a very well off man spent over $16,000 to install a road to one of the quarries and paid a search team to search that quarry, they did not find it. Well there are many quarries in this area and yes by todays access to the first quarry closest to the road one would think that is where the car was, but after doing some research and looking at topo maps from many years past one could see that there was an old driveway into the quarry area, I talked with some older locals from that town that business is in fact digging and one showed me where the old road went, and where the old drive way went in, he also said when he was younger this is where folks would dump there cars. Well I set out to dive this remote quarry and where he said, and sure enough on the first dive I found a pile of cars that had been dumped.. After a many dives and the use of some lift bags to dig thru the pile I found the shellby.. The quarry was heavily shaded and no fish, thus low oxygen levels, bad for the fish but good to help slow rust and decay. Any way the car itself is in very rough shape and I don't believe hoisting it out in one piece is possible. I did how ever find and cut off the VIN number. Its not in the greatest shape but it can still be read. Some one told that this VIN number is worth a lot of money to the right person with deep pockets, I dont know this person, and to be honest I think that tryng to sell this find to the highest bidder is not right to the guys who build kit cars and hopes to have one like the Original. So here is how I would like to sell it to make it fair to all. I am going to raffle it off, I am only going to sell 100 raffle tickets and the cost for each ticket is $500. No one can buy or will be allowed to buy more then three tickets. One can buy a ticket by western union. I have already sold 13 tickets and still have 87 for sale, since I only sold 13 tickets in the past three weeks is the reason for posting this thread in and effect to sell the rest and raffle it off quickly. If your interested please message me. Like I said I scuba dive and dont have an interest in cars so the sooner this happens the happier all will will be
