Thanks for posting the links to advertisements, because I find it interesting to keep an eye on a car's sale history. This car has been for sale a bit over the years. It's dropped a few thousand since it sold at auction 6 or 7 years ago. 1965 ARNTZ ROADSTER COBRA RE-CREATION - 70846

Then it was here.

And then the current owner had $35k on it...

I've been watching this car as well, as I LOVE the color combination. When it was for sale at Brighton Motorsports, I spoke with Eric (salesman there) pretty extensively about the car and considered flying down there to see it. It was sold to someone in the Seattle area, then was posted at Cats Exotic for sale a few months ago (exotic car dealer in Seattle). They sold it on eBay in July, 2015: http://www.ebay.com/itm/1965-Shelby-...16.m2518.l4276

It was scheduled for the Lucky Auto Auction in Tacoma, WA in Autumn 2015.

Per 750hp's note above, it appeared to have come Grand Blanc, Michigan and that owner had it on Hemmings and on Craigslist. Grand Blanc is only an hour from me. If anyone wants a pre-purchase inspection, please contact me.
