They advertise them at those inflated prices all over the web, not many of them have sold for anything near those asking prices. Although, it really is a matter of numbers, just like the spammers that send out 1,000,000 spoofed emails a day telling people to "verify their accounts", all it takes is one to respond to make the scam work.

Most SPF's that I have seen marked as sold and pulled from the market are in the $42,000-$57,000 range. Are there exemptions to that rule, of course, but those are the truly exceptional cars at the top of their game. 427 Sideoiler powered, no small block, or 460 powered cars in that grouping, at least none that I have heard about.


Bill S.
Where does Bill criticize what you refer to as the "premium brand" label of the Shelby-licensed SPF? His opinions and comments were directed about the inflated prices of dealers/brokers. Bill then offered his opinion of current pricing based upon his vast experience of buying and selling 50+ Cobras (total WAG) in his lifetime. Juan, take a chill pill. No one insulted the SPF brand.

And yes, Dimis is correct. You do have an obvious "vested interest" in protecting the SPF brand, just like I have a vested interest in the brand that I own. By saying "you have nothing to gain" appears disingenuous, at least to me.

And if anyone is leaving the CC site, then it's those folks whose posts are misread, misconstrued, misunderstood, misinterpreted, etc. by others and get attacked for seemingly no reason at all. At least to this reader.
