He sold the car to a friend on the condition that he could buy it back at some point in the future? And he actually buys it back 35 YEARS later? 35 YEARS? What a perfect friend! To be there looking after this incredible car for all that time and then actually willing to let it go after all those years of ownership. So cool.
Yeah, I did that once with a rare watch I had and the friend traded it to someone. What's worse is he wouldn't even tell me who he traded it to so I could try to buy it back from him. So the buy it back doesn't always workout. I'm happy it worked out for him but it doesn't always workout that way. The excuse my friend gave me for trading it off was pretty lame too. He said "it was mine so I traded it".
My friend's Dad did a very similar deal with a friend and Co worker with his 69 Pontiac GTO Judge that he had bought from our downtown Defiance Ohio Pontiac dealer Shorty Derrow brand new We cruised it in the eighties and my friend was given the car by his Dad for graduation He then gave it back to his Dad later when he retired so he could enjoy it again
@@johnmoser2689 man, these are all so heart warming! Especially when it concerns very cool, very wanted, often very valuable cars. These cars must have been difficult to give back, especially so after many years of love and care. Shows just how incredibly strong some friendships are and that makes me happy (especially with so much craziness going on in the world today!)
I agree Austin, sitting here on Christmas Day, my armchair estimate is way closer to $300K, given history, double blower effect, and general 'COOL' factor.
That is what an Eleanor should have been! The color is Home Run! The 445s are really tough. They are usually a 391 truck block with the triple bracing and if you only bore the bores to 4.08, they are very thick and really good metal. The 4.25 stroker crank can take 1500 hp as can that block with cross bolted mains. That car will live in my dreams forever! Twin Paxtons with Gilmer tooth belts, that 750 is easy and can run to 6200 rpm’s as long as you want. The internals of any FE from a stock 2 V 390 can take 750 hp, he could boost it up to 1000 hp if he wants to. I would not street race him. He would embarrass any Mustang of today, and the Scat Pack cars are so heavy, I believe he would walk them going away with no sweat. Beauty, and Muscle! I have built many FEs in the 50 years I have built them, and this one is the best combination I’ve ever seen! A 427 gets a lot of glory, and the 428 in 67 was a Police Interceptor with less power than the 68 up Cobra Jet. This 445 is a wonderful example of how the FE becomes Godzilla!
The first and original owner (RIP) had a good taste for cars! And the new owner did a great job to show this beauty with new muscles (while preserving the value)! What a beauty! 10:21 min Oh Boy 🤙🏻 (he waited for so long, he is NOT GOING TO SELL THIS CAR for 250k, not even for 300k or more) This car is going to be soon at 500k! (10 years ~)
This is not meant to be a criticism of the nice "appraiser" as a person or the awesome Mustang. But I am stunned that this is what passes for an appraisal video... meant to cause people to want to get a similar appraisal done by this company. So many problems & deficiencies. He says his examination would be "invasive" as he would "make the sausage". This was anything but thorough. Didn't see any sausage. We didn't see a single pic of under the vehicle. It has oem type batteries & hoses but he doesn't mention those type factors. He doesn't go around & educate the viewer on looking for signs of body repairs or whether bolts such as fender bolts had been turned or moved, welds where body panels were put together, edges of door jambs & other panels to see if they had tape lines or dry areas that indicate paintwork. He does mention a flaw in the paint on the quarter panel but just makes the incorrect assumption that the paint is original when you can zoom in on the pics & see specs of trash & fisheyes & sand marks & repair areas & overspray & poor fitting panels all over the car. The appraiser asks if it has original paint etc. That's his job to figure out if he was supposed to be evaluating the vehicle. I easily zoomed in on my phone from my couch and could see countless flaws in the paint that make it clear that this car has been painted. Still an awesome car. But this was the most useless "appraisal" ever. And then he first asks the owner what he thinks the value is. He says you're kinda foolish for bringing your car to me to get it appraised. Now he was right about that. If it were my video I'd pull it down & redo it right to actually show people what makes the difference between an average good looking old car like this one with obvious paintwork & a car that's been taken to the level that this video tries to pass this car off as. Zoom in to look at the visible damage or repair area on the A pillar at 3:12. Zoom in to see the crud around the vin# plate at 5:21. Look at 6:01 where the front fender is pretty damaged from rubbing the tires that are too big. Look at the very rough looking quarter panel welds at 6:50. Not factory. Zoom in on left quarter terrible sand marks under the paint at 10:24 & zoom in on the corner cap that joins it to see some terrible paintwork. Check out the very poor fit of the trunk lid & hood, which those are the Shelby fiberglass ones so maybe they always fitted poorly. There's a huge difference between an original paint car and one that's had body panels welded in poorly. That's all cosmetic stuff, but what about that clear knocking noise at 3:34? It could be something else, but it sure sounds like the engine knocking! No mention of that!? Just zoom in on any panel to see multiple specs & fisheyes. The factory could have left one or two, but not that many. Every panel I see has several & several places like where the valance panels meet the fenders & quarters are not fitting like a very low mileage original paint car should fit. And it may just be me but the front fenders seem to both be a shade lighter than the doors. If the car were carefully wet sanded again & buffed properly a lot of the telltale signs could be improved so much that it would take the car to another level. Being such a special & beautiful car it deserves it. So I hate pointing out negative stuff about anyone's car, but this "appraisal" just failed to do it's intended purpose. Good or bad, an appraisal of a car this special & valuable needs to be way more detailed, honest, and accurate than whatever this was.
The Paxtons are generally period correct so it's way different than some later-developed forced induction in aesthetic...that in conjunction with the presence of the #'s matching engine means value shouldn't be anything other than enhanced.
It’s a weird thing because I would love nothing more than to swap them for some modern medium sized turbos and a modern fuel injection/timing but I would never ruin this car by doing so.
@@negativeindustrial Even that wouldn't ruin the car so long as you built another new big block and kept BOTH current engines, the original and the twin Paxton. It's all reversible.
Great car and another great episode. It’s not just the appraisal, but the respect for car and owner that appeal to me. Oh, and the dry humor, several laugh out loud moments. Thank you ~ Chuck
Shelby actually used this same setup in the car known as Little Red, it was a prototype at the time and was later bought and restored by the Jackson of Barrett Jackson
My god those twin superchargers are so beautiful. The car that surrounds them is also pretty cool. :) Excellent video and makes me happy to be a Hagerty customer. My old beat up Buick is still covered by the best.
I didnt see the dash signed by shelby that right there has to make it rare. Shelby loved to sign things Ive never seen a shelby on youtube that didnt have his signature on the glove box. What a beautiful car
I wonder if the rubber on the fenders was from tire rub. There wasn't much room there, sitting still. Go down the road and add some bumps you'll get tire rub.
It`s a time capsule, love the originallity of the paint and all the rest, his wheels he made are beautiful, I love magnum 500`s on any car, a 1/4 million, incredible, I wonder what he sold it for, and the buy back cost? It`s stunning and I am a Mopar guy 68-70.
It's nice to see someone build a engine like that for a car and then drive it. Far too many of these cars are bought and sold as stocks and then spend their entire life just sitting which is not what they were built to do.
I think that car is criminally underpriced, with inflation the way it is, cheap credit available to the wealthy, being an unrestored 67 GT500 fully documented, immaculate and having ultra desirable period correct mods that have all been sorted out by a professional to be 100% usable, street able, reliable, just the labor and expertise the man put into the car on top of the fact you probably couldn't replicate the car with all those original Shelby parts and zero labor costs for half the estimate and have it truly indistinguishable from the real deal. Then it has a great story, attached to a veteran who didn't make it home from Vietnam and a lucky kid who answered an ad for a Mustang in the pennysaver. I bet it's a hell of a lot more fun to drive and own than an all original 426 Hemi car.
Talk about a mustang fans wet dream...it's the heart of the actual super snake(twin supercharged cobra) dropped in basically Eleanor painted up like the Bullitt car hahaha 😆 😂 damn!!!
Perfecto... love that kind of modifications (Bolt on Bolt Off) and keeping what looks like factory. The Wheels are awesome Cam-Am. She looks like it wants to Road America or Laguna just slap a number on it.
In Australia there’s one original 1967 GT5OO Shelby cobra 🐍 Fastback price is $ 500.000.00 ( half million AUD dollars ) those cars always worth more overseas in Brazil 🇧🇷 probably worth even more !
I came to watch a car video but had a hard time concentrating on the Mustang because the airplane behind it (the one with the yellow tail) is a B-17 Flying Fortress that used to be owned by an air museum not far from where I live in NY. Saw that plane fly several times, have actually been in it too. Sadly the museum had to sell it to pay debts like 15 years ago, and here it turns up in an auto appraisal video...
Not a Ford Guy but I can appreciate cool when I see it and that Shelby has all of what it needs to be the best one I've seen the original 428 dual quad was a baaad boy from ford but stroked with 2 Paxton huffers this car is bad to the bone
All the beautiful cars and planes like what's in that museum are some of the few things I will miss about California when that big 10.0 hits and half it rolls into the ocean. Because the rest of California, as of right now, well....
@@gearhead682010 There's never been a documented 427 in a 67 GT500. They were simply too expensive for Ford to make them standard in a Mustang as opposed to the 428 which was in mass production at that time.
The GT500 is a push pig in the corners and challenges the brakes on a moderately hard stop. At 10 mpg it was not practical as a daily driver. The GT350 of 67 was an extremely good car to drive in spite of its leaf spring cast iron read axle with drum brakes. Feel very sorry for the young man who bought his dream car and never was able to see it again. Those were dark times.
Yes they were...my brother in law has his brothers 66 charger..was bought 18 months before he shipped out never to return to enjoy it..I'm shure it a bitter sweet drive in it for him today 😔
I could just imagine this thing on the street. It would be terrifying to drive in straight line with that kind of horsepower. Forget about trying to turn. This vehicle would plow strait into a brick-wall. Just get a modern-day supercharged GT-500.
This car is way more close to factory than say the guy that crashed the chevy on the AutotopiaLA video. This car had carbs and throttle linkage that was easily adapted. The Chevy was a straight drag racing engine shoehorned into a car with a semi functioning gas pedal. It was most likely built on the premises that we have 33 days to get this built, and with the snap of the fingers they had 3 days to build; and threw it together. Besides how hard can it be to throw a Blown Big Block into an old car. Shoe string the gas pedal and you're racing.... The guy actually bothered to say that he upgraded the brakes in the 90's. All he perhaps upgraded to was Big Block brakes for say a 390 4bbl. or possibly a 428 with factory power ratings. Not a 8-71 blown funny car engine.
He says he would never sell it, but I promise you if Bill Gates had this exact car when he was in high school and told his agent that he wanted to own it regardless of price, that puppy would be gone.
What a Jewel of the hotrod era.Just enough goodies on it for a lil more fun.Not outrageous to ruin a classic.still got the original parts.Great job.💪👁️👁️
Always look forward to these. Colin is the appraisal Master for sure! Love to have him do my ‘69 427/390 4sp Corvette! It’s insured through Hagerty of course! Great to deal with and cheap! Thanks for these. Really well done. Cheers Hagerty! (Awesome place to film btw! Wicked cool museum I assume!)

Probably the best looking car made in the muscle car era. It looks like it’s going 100mph sitting still.
This car is priceless , it will be an Million dollar car in the near future.
Because of the him with Paxton history with Carol Shelby. I think it's worth more as it sits
Pretty sweet love how he even made the supercharger setup look vintage probably not making much boost with that flexi hose still cool as hell
Likely just a cover for that purpose...

All he perhaps upgraded to was Big Block brakes for say a 390 4bbl. or possibly a 428 with factory power ratings. Not a 8-71 blown funny car engine.
That car would do a million dollar or maybe well over it.
Awesome car 👍👍
They should show us the 1000hp 959 that was built when the car was being tested in the states
He says he would never sell it, but I promise you if Bill Gates had this exact car when he was in high school and told his agent that he wanted to own it regardless of price, that puppy would be gone.
1977 is not that old my friend!! 😅
This is a '67.
Grandpa has a 37 ford coupe in the garage, now thats old
@@XploreAz 1:30 "1977 I wasn't even born..." that is what he said x'D.
In fact the pony is 1967 😌.
There is very little supercharger whine. Nice.

Hot 🔥 ride.
I'd like to have seen the owner wind it out a tad n run through the gears though. Such a tease not doing so .
Craig is the best owner for this car
Always look forward to these. Colin is the appraisal Master for sure! Love to have him do my ‘69 427/390 4sp Corvette! It’s insured through Hagerty of course! Great to deal with and cheap!
Thanks for these. Really well done. Cheers Hagerty! (Awesome place to film btw! Wicked cool museum I assume!)
What kind of mufflers were on it?
Beautiful....
Hegerty can you please do a revelations for the BMW M5 E60
That start-up was as startling as a gun shot.
