    I have decided to sell another fine vehicle from my private collection. This is an extremely rare Supercar. Only 249 Shelby Series 1's were built. It is the ONLY car that Carroll Shelby built from scratch!. The engine compartment is signed by Carroll Shelby. This car is an exceptional vehicle with only 3100 pampered driven miles since new. The vin Number is CSX5278. This car was built with the rare supercharger option. Other options include chrome roll bar, cross drilled rotors and 6 piston brakes, honeycomb grill insert and color matched front nose guard. Although all Series 1's are titled as 1999, CSX5278 was built in 2005. Approximately 97 % off all Series 1's were painted centennial silver making this color combination extremely rare. This is the only red with silver stripes Series 1 in existence. The price for CSX5278 new was close to $200K. I am sacrificing at $125K Please pm me if you have an interest.

    Thanks!

    I think that is a good price for such a rare bird. Collectors are not really into this model as other Shels. Could be the Olds connection. The color and SC make this really interesting. I'm watching this one.

    This car is spectacular! There is a nice amount of equity in this car at this price. I have a collector looking at this car that owns 4 other rare Shelby Series 1's. This would be the lowest priced Series 1 in his collection. There is a silver, non SC series 1 on ebay that they are asking $124K at the dealership without any of the options my car has that are at least worth $50K more in options! Don't wait too long if you have a serious interest. If you are just looking then enjoy the pics.

    Thanks!

    This was one of the fastest accelerating cars in a Motor Trend Shootout back in 2000

    That car looks absolutely wicked in red. I like that way better than the silver. Totally changes the look of the car. Beautiful!!

    Nice looking car. Shelby when he bought back the name had to sell these as component cars meaning less engine and trans. because re-certification cost to much.
