Rare and desireable are 2 different things. Although it remains to be seen if any of the #'d cars will become desirable.

Yes, the Lancer Shelby's are more rare.

Too bad they are still considered junk to everyone else, I'd gladly trade mine for an SRT-4 or something.

There's something to be said for unique...

89lancer_shelby · 09-24-2005, 06:49 PM

yup my lancer would be gone in a second for an srt4 in the driveway....but a new car and money just get along way too well...not to mention the Lancer Shelby isn't the biggest chick magnet

I gave away #152 about a year ago, I think it's currently sitting in a garage. No engine, trans, radio, or rims. I found the car like that and just passed it along to somebody who might fix it up.

iTurbo · 10-02-2005, 02:04 PM

I'm currently parting out #371 due to rust and no title or bill of sale thanks to the previous owner screwing me around. I'm fixing up #127 with all the parts. So far I've stripped the interior out, removed the rear axle and wheels. I still need to pull the engine out and replace the doors and hood on #127 to fix all the hail damage it has.

#614 is alive and well. Cloth/Auto.

Whats the scoop behind that? Originally leather and didn't like it?

Packrat · 10-09-2005, 07:58 PM

Thats the way I got it almost 10 yrs ago. It seems to be all original from what I can tell. Even have the DEX77. Only thing missing is the dash plaque.

ludwig340 · 10-10-2005, 10:13 AM

Weird...y'know I can't decide which I like more...the cloth is definitely more firm and gripping, but the leather is just so damn comfortable...hmm....

Shelby Lancer # 356 had a fire under hood and its in my garage. It could be rebuilt but everything plastic burnt from engine to firewall, with other plastic items like airbox, computer, etc also gone. I'm going through turbo withdrawls now.
