The headliner is the first retail 2010 Ford Shelby GT500. The other two ponies are concepts that debuted during the 2003 auto show season. All three promise to sell for much more than the price of a standard Mustang.
The Shelby is painted in Kuna Blue with white stripes. It has an option package personally chosen by Carroll Shelby, and it features the ultra-powerful, supercharged 5.4-liter engine pushing about 500 hp.
The concepts are a red GT convertible and a silver GT coupe. They’re both early examples of how the retro, fifth-generation Mustang would look.
The convertible has 20-inch wheels, Rambo brakes with cross-drilled rotors and a billet automatic shift knob.
The coupe has a glass roof and a red and charcoal interior. It sports a functional hood scoop, and the supercharged engine pumps out almost 400 hp.
Ford is no stranger to auctions. During the past three years, it has raised more than $2 million for charity by auctioning parts of its history. Proceeds from its two concepts will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
The GT500 will benefit the Carroll Shelby Children’s Foundation.
These are sure to attract frenzied bidding, but call it an investment. In 10 or 20 years, when we’re on the seventh- or eighth-generation Mustang, you’ll have showpieces--and some muscle-car history.
