1999 SHELBY SERIES 1 CSX5195
Make no mistake.This is one of the Rarest Supercars in existence today with only 249 ever built. It is the only car that Carroll Shelby built from scratch! CSX5195 exemplifies one of the most desirable color combinations painted in centennial silver with blue racing stripes. The racing stripes go all the way from the front of the car down to the rear of the car. I personally think that this looks much better than rear stripes ending at end of rear deck lid of most other Series 1's that have stripes. CSX5195 is in exceptional condition showing only 6600 actual pampered miles on the speedometer. All fluids have been changed recently including rear differential fluid, transmission fluid and brake fluid. In addition, I had a 3m clear bra installed on the entire front hood, side rockers, side mirrors and rear panel. Brand new tires have been mounted on the vehicle since the originals were unsafe to drive due to their age. The car drives and runs great and everything works as it should!!!
One of the most important aspects of this particular vehicle is its extensive documentation. CSX5195 Documentation includes all original sales documentation. I have included photo of this documentation in this listing. Photographs include the actual car being assembled with its pride new owner by its side. There is also a photo of the actual car in front of Shelby American headquarters in Las Vegas prior to its maiden voyage to its new home. Final sales price of CSX5195 was close to $200, 000, 00.
Please do your due diligence before you make an offer. You will find few Shelby Series 1's on the market today, especially one in this superb condition with the documentation that this particular car boasts!
Lastly, I encourage you to reference several resources to determine the value before making an offer. I suggest reviewing Hagerty Valuation Tools on Hagerty's website. I have found that they provide very accurate current values for most vehicles using sales results of recent auctions to determine quarterly market trends and analysis. Lastly, it is my opinion that these rare Shelby cars have been behind the recent trend of increase values of the Ferrari and Lamborghini market. It is a matter of when, not if prices of the Series 1 are going to begin to spike.
Good Luck!
