I had my garage door open yesterday and someone drove by and saw the back of my Daytona. He asked me five times if I wanted to sell it. He always wanted one and hasn't had any luck finding one. I think the prices may go up as more people get nostalgic about cars they owned or liked when they were younger. I don't car how much or how little my 88 Z is worth. You can't put a price on the feeling of cruising down the Mass pike with the T-Tops off on a cloudless night. > Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2007 22:33:12 EDT > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: SD> Value of Shelby Vehicles > > In a message dated 4/25/2007 10:19:23 PM Eastern > Daylight Time, > [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes: > > Well said, > > I'm just thankful the prices are low.
