I listed this very car earlier this year, feeling confident I was ready to part with her- got a LOT of inquiries and offers but ended up changing my mind and promising myself to get it out on the road and really show it off....I started out great, a few nice long cruises, and my first car show- trophy winner! Really psyched, but then life caught up and it's been back under it's cover since mid June....It's time, and I'm ready to see her find new open roads- the local shop thinks I'm crazy to let it go.

Below is the original listing- Good Luck!

As much as I'd LOVE to keep her, I think it's time to let my gorgeous 1963 Ford Fairlane 500 go. I bought this mild custom completely restored, with visions of weekend cruises, showing it off at shows and generally driving it around proudly, but the reality is, 3 years later, it's seen maybe 100 road miles and the underside of a car cover in a private garage. I'm the 3rd owner I believe (owner before me bought it restored, and sold to me due to growing family. It's been in Maryland as far back as all owners recall.) It truly deserves more, so instead of paying to insure and store, it should go to someone that will take her out on sunny days, and proudly show her off like I did on those few rides.
Really- nothing mechanical wrong with it- I love this car- it was restored incredibly, and turns heads every time it's driven- awesome rumble, too....You'd be hard pressed to find one cleaner- with just enough potential to customize further on your own (I wanted to get the original stereo working again, and disc brakes for instance.) Receipts for all of previous owners work- they did all of it. Just under 77,000 miles (though no indication how many are on this newer 302 engine.)

Ford's last year with tail fins- Raven Black exterior with gold, cream interior (factory colors) and beautiful, Cragar SS wheels...It ALWAYS turns heads and gets compliments.

Plenty of great photos available, and will answer questions as best I can, for not having done the restoration....

Thanks for looking- good luck!

and the typical fine print....

Car is also for sale locally and I will end the auction if the right opportunity arises.

Unrestored 1969 Shelby GT500 one of many classic barn finds going to auction

Wed, 19 Mar 2014

We love a good barn find here at Autoblog. We like that there's a palpable excitement and sense of mystery surrounding barn finds. Each case has its own uniqueness to it, and this latest discovery is no different: an unrestored, one-owner 1969 Shelby GT500 with just 8,531 miles on it.
In the case of this particular barn find, many of the typical questions have already been answered. For example, we know who owned it - his name was Larry Brown. He recently passed away, and as he had no wife or children to inherit the estate, the car he purchased at Pennsylvania Ford dealer in May of 1969, will be auctioned off by Ron Gilligan Auctioneers.
The car was fastidiously maintained, having never been driven in the rain. In fact, Brown never even washed it, out of fear of it rusting. According to the auction website, the last time this car saw water was probably when it was detailed ahead of being delivered to Brown. If that doesn't sound like a fanatical sense of maintenance on the part of this GT500's owner, this next part will. The interior has been treated to a similarly painstaking attempt at preservation, with garbage bags covering the seats and two layers of floor mats over the carpets. The result is a car that, aesthetically, is in remarkable shape considering it's spent so long in a barn.
