Frank, you have had the car for sale for nearly the entire last 10 years you have owned it. No matter what the market is, you stay consistently $30k or more higher than what the market is at any given time. These cars don't take years and years to sell. If you are serious, put a serious price on it, otherwise continue to get laughed at.

No one's hiding. I don't want to buy and based on the last number of years you don't want to sell. I think most folks are just tired of you dangling it out there every so often, getting folks who don't know any better interested and just pulling it. Tell me where I'm wrong?

Just keep your comments to yourself. If you don't want me to post then i will leave and never return.
What a great bunch of guys in this club. Now I know what it is like to be the black sheep.

Sorry to hear about your health issues. Hope you get well.

If you need to sell you definitely want to get a fair return on your car. Having just sold a couple of cars privately (a vintage Ferrari and a Porsche GT3RS), it takes a while to move cars at this price point. Lots of lookers and tire kickers will waste your time.

Your options are....

1. Sell it essentially wholesale to a dealer. Although Shelby may be giving you the business, he would give you a reasonable price, pay you pronto, and the car would be gone fast. I sold my 70 Ferrari that way in a sinking market to a dealer last Dec. They accepted some market risk, and the car actually sold for a net loss to them at Amelia Island 3 months later.

2. Find a broker who will screen buyers and present the car for you. Typical commission is 5% but they do the legwork and have contacts with potential buyers. Or consign the car at a dealer. Probably similar fee.

3. Auction it off at a reputable auction house. Risk is whether the money is in the room that day. Reserve vs no reserve. Cost of transport, hotel, commission, travel etc.

4. Private sale. Can be painful and time consuming. Sold my Porsche that way to another enthusiast through Rennlist. Must have sent pics and descriptions via email to 20 people before a real buyer stepped up. Also gradually dropped price.

Get your car cleaned up and post some nice pics on here. If no action, drop price till market speaks.

5. eBay or BAT. Still issues with flaky buyers, scammers, etc

Best, AC

Frank, sorry to hear of your health troubles. No one wishes bad for you, me included. If you truly want to sell the car, get it priced within reason and it will move. Your car will not sell or even get any real interest when it's priced well over market. True market range on your car is $270 - $290k retail. If you need proof of this I will be happy to provide it, other wise I wish you the best and hope you get it sold....

BaT is an interesting option. It is strong on 100% stock air cooled Tubos or nicely backdated 911's to name a couple of consistent contenders.

Seems a lot of cars have really cooled off lately. Especially late model American.

A Ford GT would have to be 100% stock and even then, probably not going to get strong bids.
