Thumbs up $4 Million Shelby Daytona Coupe, a great read!!!

If you have 20 min's on ya hands. More twists than an Stephen King novel, but a warning, some gruesome events have taken place, thankfully, no pics, just text.
See the car here:http://www.carsinbarns.com/Blue%20Ov...arns/pg35.html
There's also some other interesting stories in the above link, so have a look around.

What a depressing site - cars in barns that is.

Yeah that car was briefly featured in the latest (?) Australian Muscle Car magazine, using it as an example of how classics are now worth more when left is completely original condition - if that thing were to have a complete ground up restoration to original status, it would loose value.
Good to read the full story, cheers :sm_headba
