Tasca Shelby GT500
With Carroll Shelby spending so much time on the GT-40 racing program for Ford Motor Company, he had to give up Shelby Mustang production to Ford to keep the program going. So 1967 was the last year that Shelby Mustangs were actually produced at his Shelby American plant.
Forged out of the close friendship between Bob Tasca, Sr (Tasca Ford was the country’s second largest Ford dealership in the 1960’s.) and Carroll Shelby, quite a few Shelby Mustangs were sold on the East Coast. Tasca Ford was able to sell legendary muscle cars right out of the showroom. His Tasca Ford Racing team was famous. He is credited with coining the phrase “Win on Sunday, Sell on Monday” as the anthem for dealer race programs across the country. They were legends in the NHRA drag racing circuit.
This 1967 Shelby GT500 finished in rare Brittany Blue was one of the Tasca Ford Shelby Mustangs. Since this was the last year that Carroll Shelby was closely involved in the design and build, these 1967 Shelby Mustangs have a significant place in history. This car is being offered for sale through No Reserve Classics in Green Brook, New Jersey. They describe it as a raw and powerful beast. Under the hood is the 428 ci Police Interceptor engine which is mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox. They say you cannot duplicate this exhilarating driving experience.
The exterior, finished in the striking Brittney Blue with White Stripes, is described as a showstopper, complete with iconic Shelby features like the inboard headlights, factory chrome bumpers, factory fiberglass hood, factory fiberglass trunk, factory Shelby taillights and 10-spoke Shelby wheels. Inside, the Black Decor Interior combines vintage style with comfort, featuring bucket seats, a wood grain steering wheel, and a full gauge package.
This 1967 Shelby Mustang is not just a classic muscle car for sale … it is an investment. They say it is a piece of American history that promises a “thrillilng” ride every time. It doesn’t get any better than this. (No Reserve Classics disclaims that since this car has been restored the items may not be original to the car. It can be updated as a restomod or pro touring style at their shop.)

Quite a few ’69 Camaro Indy Pace Cars have been restored over the years. But most of them are small block 350 ci V8 versions. Very few dealer version 1969 Camaro RS/SS Indy Pace Car Convertible examples are available with the big block 396 L78 engine. That’s why we got pretty excited when North Shore Classics out of Mundelein, Illinois listed this restored Camaro Z11 Indy Pace Car for sale this week. They say it has the correct L78 375 hp 396 ci V8 as well as a numbers matching 4-speed Muncie manual transmission. It is just as the actual Pace Car was equipped for the ’69 Indianapolis 500 race. They say the body and paint are flawless. No expense was spared in restoring this Z11 Pace Car edition. It won 1st Place Gold at the Chicago World of Wheels in 2024. This is a rare find.

Deals of the Day
Hyundai Custom

It was designed and built by Troy Lee Designs using a Transformers movie theme. It is being offered for sale through Drive The Coast, a Florida classic car dealership. You will notice the Lambo doors, 22-inch Claus Ettensberger wheels, Katskin Custom leather interior with carbon fiber style leather seats. And there are a number of performance parts used in the build. This SUV has 80k miles, but still turns heads wherever you go. It will be our DEAL of the DAY on Saturday. Their asking price is only $19,995. Wow!
1959 Plymouth Fury
A collector listed this 1959 Plymouth Fury for his friend in Connecticut. He says it is an original classic 4-Door Fury with just one repaint. It has 64,639 original miles recorded so far. The seller says it has a solid, straight body with beautiful chrome and stainless. You won’t find a speck of rust, he says. The trunk loots pretty clean in the photo. And, best of all, “it runs and drives as it should with no issues.” Just look at that interior. Call for more information. It will be our DEAL of the DAY on Sunday. Their asking price is only $16,500.
1960 Lincoln Continental
They say this 1960 Lincoln Continental Mark V is a dependable collector car to own. They have it for sale at Cody’s Classic Cars in Stanley, Wisconsin this week. For the past year they have been driving it for fun. They say they visited three different states with over 3,000 miles driven.

1923 Ford T-Bucket
A 1923 Ford T-Bucket with an old school “altered” race car look has been listed for sale. Classic Car Liquidators in Sherman, Texas has posted it at a very deep discount to the average value. The altered look and turtle-back design give it a very interesting stance. The big deal however is the under carriage. This must be a fresh build or a very well cared for hot rod. It looks real clean underneath. And the custom leather interior is more than you see on most T-Buckets. Click here to view the video walk-around and hear it run. It will be our DEAL of the DAY on Tuesday next week. Their asking price is $16,999.
1987 Pontiac Fiero GT
Of all the years that Pontiac made the Fiero, 1987 was one of the good versions, according to the Classic Auto Mall, who seems to have researched this. Upgrades to the suspension, upgrades to the engine (V6) 2.8L) and a Muncie/Getrag 5-speed transmission were all improvements. So this 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT would seem to be a bargain when you consider they say it only has 14,154 actual miles. Garage kept, they say everything works perfectly on this little sports car. They tested it on their track and found it ran “like a champ” and handles as on rails. They did note a few annoying things, such as the tach didn’t work. Fuel and oil gauges were not functioning either. But this car will be our DEAL of the DAY on Wednesday. The asking price is only $16,900
2004 Chrysler Crossfire
We’ve always been impressed with the sports car that Mercedes designed for Chrysler. But we never thought you would be able to buy them so inexpensively. So here is a 2004 Chrysler Crossfire coupe for sale just listed by Fast Lane Classic Cars in Missouri. It has the 3.2L 18-valve V6 with a 6-speed manual transmission. That paint is called Alabaster with clearcote. The leather bucket seat interior is looking good in the photos. Very sharp. The seats on this one are heated. It comes with Traction Control, power rear spoiler and has 19’ wheels in the rear with 18” in the front. They say it has only 61k original miles. Watch a detailed walk-around video. It will be our DEAL of the DAY later next week. Their asking price is $10,995.
1963 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88
Oldsmobile had a normal year in 1963, although the very next year there were plant strikes and the company was in danger of going out of business. This 1963 Oldsmobile Dynamic 88 was considered a personal luxury car with a 394 big block engine. This one only has 59k miles. It is being offered for sale at Classic Car Liquidators in Texas. It has power steering, power brakes, American Racing Torque Thrust wheels and an aftermarket radio. Classic Car Liquidators regularly comes up with respectable collector cars at great prices. After looking through the photos we would consider it very clean, but in driver quality condition. Click here to review a walk-around video and hear it run.
