That car will still need a lot of work, all the rubber and plastic pieces have dried out and gotten brittle. It wasn't driven in the last 3 years, every seal on that car will leak like a sieve. Great find though.

Nothing wrong with buying a piece of art just to enjoy looking at it and experiencing satisfaction of ownership...

And there is a barely a difference in weight. The uni-body on the different model years are damn near identical. **EDIT** Didn't see that it was a '69. Yeah, those aren't quite as valuable as the 67-8's or the 65-6's |

I think this is why this kind of story and the corvette hall of fame story. Us car lovers love these old cars as art. We may never own it, but we appreciate it from afar.

Reminds me of a story a little over a year ago of some dude know as the Greek Elvis that left a Lambo Miura in a hotel parking garage to rot for a few decades.

The video in the first link was a nice distilled bit on Shelby's work on the Mustang.
