You Can Buy Four Perfect Shelby Dodges For The Price Of An Audi R8
You Can Buy Four Perfect Shelby Dodges For The Price Of An Audi R8-April 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:13:44

Like most people, I have about $120,000 in cold, hard cash that's just burning a hole in my pocket right now, and I can't decide which exotic car to spend it on. Luckily for me — and possibly someone else — an eBay listing for four rare 1980s Shelby-branded Dodges has come to my rescue!

is a lot that contains a black 1987 Shelby CSX, a red 1989 Shelby CSX, a red 1987 Shelby Lancer, and a 1989 Shelby Dakota pickup truck. Four cars! All Shelbys! One of them is even a truck, ensuring all your vehicular needs are met!

And here's the best part: all of them have just 25 miles on them. Jiminy Christmas!

Before he returned to Ford-related projects, Carroll Shelby cranked out (or at least lent his name to) a number of tuner-special Dodges at the behest of his pal Lee Iacocca in the 1980s. With delicious turbo power, or V8 power in the case of the Dakota, all of them were potent performance cars in their time and are not especially common today.

The seller claims all cars were purchased from a dealer who had an agreement to get the first Shelby Dodges available to the public, and each has been kept in a temperature-controlled dry storage unit since the days when we were still at war with godless Communism.

The downside to the listing is that there's no vehicle history for each one, and , perhaps because the seller doesn't actually want to unload them. But it's an interesting deal. All of those cars are collectable, maybe, and in great shape, but I'm not convinced $120,000 is a fair price for the lot.

I'm sure some hardcore Shelby or Mopar person would be happy to snatch them up. Any takers?

I Ordered A Carbon-Fiber Roof For My Porsche 996 Turbo And I Might Throw Up A Little
I bought maybe the cheapest Porsche 996 Turbo—that’s right, —on the market a year ago, and I’ve mostly been happily stacking miles on the odometer since then. I have been working on making the car my own with a period-correct set of wheels, some extra carbon trim, and a...

It’s one thing for you to be forklift certified, but it’s quite another thing for your forklift to be certified badass. Most of the forklifts I’ve used at jobs have been unreliable, smelly monstrosities that have been repaired by . This restomod Hyster is definitely not like that. What’s...
