Palm Springs X code I talked to the owner this morning and he said that he had not sold the car and was surprised to hear that it had been on this website. Contact info regarding the car: Danny (562) 708-1999 (serious inquiries only).

X code I'll take a look today and talk to the owner if I can find him.

It has been 8 years since I sold my CS at Barratt Jackson and this is my first visit since then. I'm in Palm Springs and watched the car go on $. The high bid was around $23k! Fortunately, the owner had a high bid ($60K), not knowing what the value would be. He has owned it for 5 years and...

Some years ago (2007?) a seafoam green car sold for around $53,000 at auction. It was a C code and not real original. I have not seen one sell for as much since. I had one which I had professionally painted to lime gold (!), which, with the black stripes really "popped" and you can see it in...

It's sold It finally happened, I sold my car at B-J today for $24,200 (including commission). I was disappointed in the price, but felt I did everything I could do. I spent about 30 hours over the last week getting the engine compartment in to look factory correct and I got many compliements...

Looks like there will be at least three Specials up for auction at the end of June! http://www.barrett-jackson.com/application/onlinesubmission/currentcarlist.aspx?aid=343&sd=06%2f25%2f2010&ed=06%2f27%2f2010 Sven

In 1976 while stationed in Quantico, Va, I test drove 5 or 6 Shelbys (both 350's and 500's), the highest selling for $3300. They weren't in the best shape - this was before everyone started restoring them - so I passed in favor of a Highland Green '68 Couger XR-7 GT-E for $800, but rust free...

7:00 is too early for me, since I will be leaving fire station at 6:00, earliest. Try to save a spot for me. Sven

It doesn't sound like there is much interest in the FFF event this year! Sorry to hear that, since I was hoping to meet up with and park next to other Specials. As previously announced, my car will be sold at Barrett Jackson in June, so will be glad to preview it for anyone who might have an...

I'm glad your Dad isn't selling my car! I have the option of backing out if I don't like the time slot, before signing the contract. If I did not have a reserve on my car in '06, I would have sold it for $33,000. I will be lucky to get that today. There are pros and cons to the no bid...

B-J charges both seller and buyer 8%. The entry fee is determined later, by lot number, after it is assigned. The contract is signed around that time, presumably, and the car is commited to be sold at the auction only. Claims that the auction favors buyers doesn't make any sense. The more...

I've had the car up for sale several times in the last few years, both on this site and at Reno, so I've put a lot of thought into it. If there isn't much interest here, where then? I chose BJ for several reasons: It gets really good exposure, it is being held nearby in a highly populated area...

PS - If anyone wants to make an offer "I can't refuse" before I commit to BJ, let me know. Sven

Thanks for all the words of encouragement! Seriously, I have gone the no reserve route a couple of times at Reno and ended up towing my car all the way home to Poway (San Diego). I restored it nearly 10 years ago and made a big mistake by not keeping it a "driver", and now it mostly sits in...

I finally bit the bullet and registered my car with Barrett-Jackson for their 25-27 June auction at Orange County (CA). Since there is no reserve, I will not be driving it home this time! Hope to see you at Knott's this year. Sven (Rananim)

Check my gallery - I believe I am using the ones you are looking for Sven

Mine's for sale, but have not been advertising it lately. Take a look at my gallery. Sven

Always liked the fastback and I had one in college. The only coupe I liked was the '65-66, until I saw the CS. Sven

Good Grief! I am surprised at all the venom this subject has brought out and how it seems to have migrated into a contest between the site and the registery. I appreciate both and am particularly glad to see Paul's regular contribution to the site with information and the help he has given...

It is time to advertise my car on the net, since the auction didn't work out. You can see photos of my car in the gallery or I can email them to you with all the information (too much to include here). I am asking $34,000, but will consider offers. Sven
