I have 2 1975 Shelby Williams lounge chairs and I would like to know what they are worth.

They are at least $150 each. Check listings on eBay for your exact chairs.
Neat pieces! Some people call these mid century modern, but technically that are a little late to be called such....they are more of the style of MCM! Still really cool! Yours look like they are in good shape, which is important since these pieces frequently cracked and got marked up.
The company is still in business which is neat:

To value your chairs, you would need to match a SOLD auction for the exact some chair either on eBay or a furniture auction site.
I don't see any listed that match at the moment, so check back frequently to find an exact match. If you find one in active, watch it until it sells to get your value. (DO NOT use that for value as sellers can ask anything, but value is what someone pays).
Shelby prices are all over the board in prices, which is why it is so important to match your exact chairs to ones that have sold. There are some Shelby's getting over $2,000 a chair...while others fetch as low as $50. You don't want to under or over value your pieces by guestimating until you find an exact sold match.
I know that were I am, the black pieces or the lighter all wood pieces usually fetch more than the orange/rust ones...but it all depends on the market in your area.
Let me know what you find in case I miss it! Thanks!
Thank you very much for your time and insight.
Thank you very much for your time and insight on this new endeavor of mine
These are really nice! Please post back when you learn more! I love learning values in other parts of the country!!
Very nice chairs and looks like the condition is very good so the value should be several hundred dollars but actually selling them may take a long time unless you are really lucky and someone sees them and says "hey, just what I was looking for!".
Is there anymore detail on the tag, like the style that would make researching the name more easier to compare what the price is going for these chairs.
The chairs are in great condition for the age!
