2004 FORD EXPEDITION "SHELBY SEMA" 1 0f 1 @ Batt/Jack!
 

I was watching Barrett Jackson yesterday and saw a 2004 Ford Expedition go on the block. The president of Shelby America comes up and says it was made for the 2006 SEMA show and was designed and built as a prototype for FORD by Shelby. It is a one-off with over 6 figures to built it. It had an aluminum 5.0 Supercharged 550 hp engine, custom front end and hood, projector headlamps, a BORLA exhaust that came threw the SIDE of the rear fenders, 22" wheels with 4 piston calipers, special suspension, custom pewter paint and a custom interior. I was like in awe of this really sharp looking SUV and thought it would sell for a ton of money. IT SOLD FOR $28,000:shock:. Good deal or not?

That's significantly less than my Explorer stickered brand new in 06, I'd say he might've lucked out. Stock Expeditions with 60,000 miles are selling for ~20,000.

pics of this thing?

It's an 04 not an 06.

An OK deal IMO. There are so many one-off cars out there I think the collectible values of them are getting hit.

Wow, nice looking truck. I'm not an SUV fan, but that thing is sharp. :cool:

I hope that has air bags, it looks stupid sitting that high

It says "NO TITLE" as well so that probably hurts the value quite a bit.

i just threw up a little

it reminds me of the saleen/tim allen built windstar :rofl:

Looks pretty god awful, typical.

Yeah it does sit up QUITE high. I wonder what it would take to make it street legal? I have Collector Car registration on my Formula and do NOT need to have it pass ANY N.J. emission laws. It would be a blast to drive that around. I would guess it would rip apart a SVT Jeep Wagoner with the 425 hp motor. If you wanted to you could probably take all the parts out of it and make a profit!:mrgreen:

It might be a bit faster in a straight line than the SRT8 Jeep Grand Cherokee, but I am willing to bet that overall the Jeep would wipe the floor with this truck. This Expo has more power, but also likely weighs way more (SRT8 curb weight is 4872, stock '04 Expo curb weight is 5564). This is also a one-off show creation, so the suspension tuning is likely marginal at best.

Still ugly.

i would take it and slam it, it would look bad ass

fixed :lol:

The guys who talk about the car during the bidding said this vehicle can never be registered or driven legally on the road. So useful!

Aside from the ridiculous exhaust tips I kinda like it. I'd pick that up if I had expendable income. I would love to hit the lottery and go to BJ. The power to just buy anything has to be a freak'in rush.

If it has no title it likely has no vin. I'm sure there is some way around the rules though, there always is.

kit car...

buy a wrecked expo and take the vin plate and title ;)

Good idea Boyd.

This.

Not my cup of tea, things ugly
