We’re pretty sure there are plenty of reasons behind such a move, regardless, it’s hard for us to understand why someone, for any reason, would buy a gem as rare as the Mustang GT350 in the gallery below, and then keep it for most of its life locked up in a garage somewhere.
Luckily, the GT350 is a car that tends to get more expensive as time passes, so what the owner lost by not enjoying it might be gained in $ once the car gets sold.

Before our eyes is a 1984 Ford Mustang GT350 of a special kind. It is part of the limited production 20th Anniversary Edition released decades ago - the model was meant to celebrate 20 years since the launch of the original Mustang, but also meant as a revival of the GT350 name that hadn’t been around for more than a decade at the time.

Because only a little over 5,000 units of it were made, these cars are incredibly rare. They were made, despite the name, without any involvement from Carroll Shelby, and came mostly as a visual upgrade made to the stock Ford Mustang of that time.

One of the few 1984 GT350s just popped up in an online auction ran by Barrett-Jackson. With a little over a day left in the bidding, the tally is at just $10,000, and the reserve has not been yet met.

Just like the entire production run, the car is finished in white with a Canyon red interior, both extremely well preserved considering the fact that it has been kept in a garage for a long period of time.

Under the hood, the GT350 20th Anniversary Edition hides a 4.9-liter V8 engine, one of several engines available for the model, backed by a 5-speed manual transmission. The engine shows just 4,800 miles since new.
