Shelby 289 Cobra – $979,000

This vehicle is a Shelby 289 Cobra. In 2015, the car went to auction. Previously, the owner, Sy Allen, had kept the car in a barn in Vermont for over 40 years. Allen acquired the car from his friend Peter DeSilva in Massachusetts, who got it from Ed Jurist’s Vintage Car Store in New York. Before that, it belonged to James Wallerstein, who purchased it from Timothy Crowley in Connecticut. Whew. That is a lot of changing hands. Finally, in 2016, someone bought it for $979,000 at a Gooding & Company sale.
