# 2524 is one of the finest examples of a restored Shelby anywhere. You will be hard pressed to find a more historically accurate car anywhere. If you ever wanted to experience what a new 1968 Shelby was like, this is a rare opportunity to own the very best. That's not my opinion, but rather the opinion of the most knowledgeable Shelby people in the world.
-Peter Disher, aka the Coralsnake and SAAC Concours Judge

2524 has since retired from concours competition and has been driven mostly to local shows and events in the Los Angeles area. Though she can no longer be considered a true “Concours Trailer Queen”, she still garners “ooos and ahhs” at local shows from novice to expert onlookers and is a blast to drive.
More photographs on request. An elite Marti report and National award trophy’s are included.
Don’t waste your time paying dealer or auction fees.
