  • Gone in 60 Seconds, the movie.

  • Eleanor, I get it.

  • [rick laughs] How's it going?

  • Good, how you doing?

  • This thing is nice.

  • This is the real thing, not a clone, huh?

  • The real deal.

  • This is it.

  • '67 GT 350?

  • Yup.

  • Only 1,175 made total.

  • Me and my tennis racket.

  • It's Wimbledon white, right?

  • It is Wimbledon white.

  • [rick laughs]

  • [engine revving]

  • Carroll Shelby was a great race car driver as well

  • as a great builder of cars.

  • And that's why Ford got involved with him to begin with.

  • I got it here in Las Vegas about 12 years ago.

  • It's a treasure to own.

  • What made this car famous was the movie Gone in 60

  • Seconds with Nicolas Cage.

  • They nicknamed the car Eleanor.

  • That's why the car is worth more value today.

  • The '67 is the best period.

  • I appreciate that.

  • It really is.

  • I mean, this was the way Carroll Shelby envisioned the car, OK?

  • And he worked on it, his guys worked on it.

  • It wasn't guys at a Ford plant slapping it together

  • who didn't give a [bleep].

  • Exactly.

  • This is one of the quintessential cool cars

  • of the 1960s.

  • There was right around 100 modifications

  • that Shelby did to a Ford Mustang to make the GT 350.

  • It improved its performance, its handling, and its style.

  • Needless to say, this is about as cool as it gets.

  • And I would love to have it This is clean.

  • This is really nice.

  • It looks all beautifully stock.

  • That's what I like to see.

  • PAUL: Yup, original four-speed top loader.

  • Got 62,000 original miles on the car.

  • RICK HARRISON: There's no gauges.

  • I'm sure the upholstery has been redone.

  • Just the inserts in the seats actually have been redone.

  • Well, that's expected to be done.

  • Just as long as it's done right. PAUL: Right

  • And this all looks right.

  • And he signed the glove box.

  • Always charge like a couple hundred bucks,

  • you just had to give it to his charity, right?

  • Yup. That's the way it went.

  • That's definitely a plus far as I'm concerned.

  • So how much are you looking to get out of it?

  • Well, my asking on the car is 125,000.

  • I've done my homework on this car.

  • I know the value of it.

  • I feel it's a fair price what I'm asking for the car.

  • OK.

  • I'm going to call up a buddy of mine

  • and have him come down here and help me figure out the price.

  • I mean, it's just it's an expensive car.

  • There's a million little things that raise and lower

  • the prices on these things. - OK.

  • - OK? - All right.

  • So let me get him down here.

  • He will know every single thing there

  • is to know about this car.

  • Terrific.

  • OK?

  • Nice.

  • There it is.

  • The hypo 289 man.

  • It looks like it's a pretty well-kept engine bay.

  • This is definitely a car that's been cherished,

  • I can tell that.

  • [music playing]

  • What really makes the difference right now is the test drive.

  • [laughter]

  • That's the only way to validate whether it's a real Shelby.

  • I think it's the real deal, guys.

  • Do you mind if we take it for a spin around the block,

  • make sure there's no problems, everything's running right?

  • Yeah, that's OK. That's fine.

  • RICK HARRISON: OK. So I promise I won't break it.

  • PAUL: OK, you promise.

  • [music playing]

  • [car starts]

  • The hypo 289.

  • Let's do this.

  • Be careful with my baby.

  • [music playing]

  • Back in '67, when you were driving this

  • car you were kind of a baller.

  • I mean, this was paying a lot of money to drive a Mustang.

  • And you can drive a Porsche for the price of this car

  • back then.

  • You know what I mean?

  • Yeah, she's nice man.

  • She's real tight.

  • The test drive was awesome.

  • It's a solid car. It felt good.

  • It's got really good power.

  • You know that car would get the goods

  • when you lay on the throttle.

  • What do you think it's worth?

  • Well, it's a solid car.

  • Runs and drives good.

  • So I'd see it anywhere between 100 to 110,000 bucks.

  • I appreciate you letting us take it for a nice, easy

  • meander down the road.

  • I appreciate what you said, and we'll talk

  • and we'll see how it goes.

  • You got a great car, man. Great car.

  • - OK, appreciate it. - Rick.

  • Thanks so much.

  • See you soon.

  • Good luck, buddy.

  • So what do you think?

  • I think it's a great car.

  • And I rarely do this, but I'm not going to negotiate.

  • I will give you 100 grand.

  • There's no money past 100 grand. None.

  • Is it feasible that you might be able to do 105?

  • No.

  • Anything past 100 is--

  • doesn't make a dime of sense.

  • All right, so that's the max you're going to go?

  • Not one dime more.

  • [music playing]

  • You've got a deal.

  • Sweet.

  • Let's go do some paperwork. - All right.

  • And we can figure out if my dad's going to yell

  • at me for driving for a week.

  • [music playing]

  • I figure this was a good point for me

  • to go ahead and let it go.

  • And now he's got the car, I got the money, and I'm out of here.
