It's hard to say "nothings been modified" and then discover it's a color change...

Maybe, nothing's been changed from the modifications? What kind of wheels are those? Original Halibrands?

Am I wrong in thinking at that price for a "restored" car it should have all the correct items in the trunk? Maybe I am just too picky....

That's a seller quote  :o

So let me get this straight this is the best 69 ????

I know someone who has the very best 1968...

Imagine having both as bookends to ones collection

Simply outstanding...oorah !

Its a color change? Original wheels go with it? Pictures of them would be nice. Not much of a description. Who did the restoration, that is important! Nice car, maybe one of the best with it being 10th place of the best, Of course is that one of the best 500 4 speed cars or one of the best of all 69 Shelbys? If it is ONE of the best, that means that my 2017 CR-V is also ONE of the best. Someone said, color change, that does NOT make the car ONE of the best, it makes it just a nice car.

On the Marti report it says Silver Jade with black out hood treatment.

What does that mean? A black hood?

No

All 1969 Shelbys were built as Mach 1s and the (black) hoods were deleted.

This '69 is only one of the best in the country.   :o

I believe the '68 was characterized as one of the best in the world  ;)

Probably something to do with the Gold award.

Not really comparable as "bookends" sort of an apples and oranges thing.

Needs a lot of work and parts to be worth that much IMHO. Would be more likely to fetch around 60% of the BIN price with the stuff like it is.
