Group Buy: 1967 Shelby GT500 Super Snake

given the frustration of saturated travel routes and legal limitations on any public highway I've never understood the irrational preoccupation with 'performance' excesses....even in those long-ago days when my own thoughts were of high horsepower & unimpeded road ahead.

That's what Miss Daisy would say..

I read an article on the Bill Cosby Shelby car and the guy who bought it after Cosby drove it off a cliff and later died, then it went into a storage shed for years until it was discovered and rebuilt.

Here's a home recording of Cosby telling Jay Leno what it was like to drive it.

Corky Angelo, the mayor of Vanc's kid got a 429 Boss right outa HS (spoiled brat). Him and my buddy Art drove it over to my house to show it off. What a beast!

429 Boss

Awesome car. Local plumber bought one a few years ago, that was lacking the original engine. He found a engine in Vegas and paid $ 30,000 for the engine alone. He brought it to a local car show 2 years ago on a trailer. Unloaded it and won best of show. All original except for the engine. It was probably worth about 120. If it had the original engine, numbers matching twice that.

I just wanted to go for a ride in it.
