Take Kelly Retail or NADA guide book and divide by the number of doors. That will get you in the ballpark.

Not to be missed is the CSX Wikipedia link that appears in the eBay ad.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shelby_CSX

I'd hold out for the CSX-T, the model that was sold exclusively to Thrify Rent a Car...or maybe the Omni GLH!

It's amazing that Shelby would put his name on that car and then turn around and sue reputable Cobra replica manufacturers for "damaging his name." I guess he wants to retain the exclusive rights to devalue his name himself.

I think we should cut the cars some slack. I recall when they came out it was kind of exciting, and they weren't bad little performers for the time. I think I was driving an MG around that time, that CSX would have kicked it's butt.

This is what always pops into my mind when I hear CS tittering on about being with Chrysler and "building Vipers". Funny how he never talks about these real Shelbys and how the Vipers don't say Shelby any where on them! LOL Just kills me.
