Think I'll throw mine in there!

Think it'll sneak under the radar and my $1500 bid will get it?

Someone will bid an obscene amount of money, and it will end up being a garage queen.
Engine will probably never see over 1500 rpm, just to drive it onto the transport truck.

It is truly unfortunate, but true. My son purchased a 66 El Camino from a collector in the San Diego area when he was stationed out there, he was saying the guy had several collector like the an original GT500, a Ford GT, a Ford Pantera and several other collectors, never driven, just purchased for investment.

I'd like to see what Shelby could do with a Ranger package.

Roush, Hennessy, and Ford Performance have pretty much became a cosmetic product brands for the most part.

How cool could a Super Snake Ranger possibly be?

I owned a 2020 GT500, was way too much horsepower for the street, tried to use it as a daily driver, that car is just not cut out for it, gets away from you way to easily, and the gas mileage ouch. But to each their own. Mine was Not a garage queen.

Oooooo, that would be fun, shoe horn a 3.0 or 3.5 twin turbo V6 under the hood, lowered about 2 inches, some fat baloney's bolted on the rear pushing about 400 hp & 425 ftlb's fun fun......

All the performance upgrades that Shelby American does are just bolt-ons from various manufacturers that anyone could do for a fraction of the cost. The thing that makes a Shelby car unique are the cosmetic items that aren't available unless you buy one of their cars or trucks.

BTW, they have 3 F150 conversions, one Raptor conversion and one F250 conversion.

Dang 128k starting bid for a drift car.

I have enough trouble keeping my foot out of my Ranger let alone some crazy machine that would DEFINITLY get away from me...lol
I would need a therapist to drive that thing daily and not kill myself.....
