It has always been a running car. I'll refrain from rest of my comments.

thank you for telling me the car drives.

Ive seen other RM Sotheby car videos and they've always presented their historic top dollar cars with the engine NOISE on the videos.

Just wanted to hear the engine.

Anyways, will check with my dad if he got a private invitation by RMS. Once u buy art from a dealer, they keep calling

I have a feeling the car will go for huge money. And to Japan.

There may be a problem with the CSX2000 auction!

Court Hearing Set for Day Cobra CSX2000 Hits the Auction Block - King Cobra Lounge - King Cobra Forum - "...a restraining order/injunction hearing is now set for that same day, 19 August @ 8:30 AM in Los Angeles, Calf. due to a lawsuit filed by Mrs. Cleo Shelby.

In relation to the same case, in court filings and IRS records, part of Mrs. Cleo Shelby's lawsuit demands to know why alleged large amounts of money are being spent from the foundation's coffers while an extremely small amount is being spent on charitable causes - the reason of the foundation's existence.

Default What about this story from King Cobra forum about injunction against auctioning it?

Isn't the timing of this just about the time of the Monterey auctions? Seems to me how the Foundation spends its money is a separate issue from if they have a right to sell the car. But I'm no lawyer

I believe that the hearing is set for the same day as the auction, so that could complicate things....

Since the car is an asset of the Trust/Foundation I think the issues are very much related. If I'm challenging how the money is being spent I'd want to prevent them from gaining access to several million in cash until the first issue is resolved.

The site was down so here is the final update

The car sold for $12.5M (plus fees).

It was bought by Greg Miller, son of Larry H Miller, well known Shelby collector.

The car will make its first public appearance at the Shelby American Collection annual fundraiser on 3-Sep in Boulder. Since the Miller track has been sold and the museum closed most of the collection has been moved to Boulder, so there is a good chance this will be it's (semi-) permanent home.

$12.5mil? Would you Cobra experts say that is a bargain?
