1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT

INTRODUCTION: This one is exceptional! Rotisserie restored, original metal and dialed in. Documented with deluxe Marti Report, copy of build sheet and listed in Shelby Registry. Rare- Only 1,423 GT 500s, 402 were convertibles, 153 of those were 4-speed and only 7 in these colors! EXTERIOR: Nothing short of amazing! Claimed to retain all its original metal, with the exception of one NOS fender that still displays its Ford part numbers. The body is pristine, straight as a rifle barrel, with precise gaps, properly fitted moldings, and doors that open and close effortlessly. Shelby's unique styling includes the extended fiberglass nose, scooped and vented hood, fiberglass quarter panel scoops, dovetail trunk lid, and matching end caps. Repainted in its original, highly desirable Highland Green, the metallic is laid out evenly and polished to a deep, brilliant gloss far superior to the factory finish. I rarely use the word flawless, but this one sure looks that way! All the chrome and trim are excellent, including the dual deluxe mirrors and rear mounted antenna. It has a new reproduction windshield with the Ford logo and a beautiful white power convertible top. Up front are the signature Lucas fog lamps in the Shelby grille. Out back are sequential taillights with racing style Shelby gas cap between them. It's rolling on iconic 10 spoke aluminum Shelby wheels wrapped in BFGoodrich radial tires for an improved ride. Every inch of this Shelby is impressive! INTERIOR: Equally impressive! The rich looking Saddle Deluxe interior makes this extremely rare! The upscale Deluxe package features woodgrain trim, upgraded upholstery, door panels and steering wheel throughout. The door panels are mint, the dash pad is excellent, and the entire instrument panel looks fantastic. It features a factory tachometer, working clock, and upgraded retro stereo with auxiliary plug, it powers kick panel speakers. The carpet looks fresh with matching mats. The Shelby specific center console houses Stewart-Warner oil pressure and amp gauges, along with a Shelby embossed armrest. Best of all, the factory 4-speed shifter rises right out of the console! The seats have firm cushions and have been reupholstered, the Shelby logo seat belts are in place, and the interior lights work. The beautifully restored steering wheel is mounted on a factory tilt column. Not many muscle cars came with roll bars from the factory, well this one did. Those little clips on top are so you can mount your surfboard across the roll bar and the windshield, true story. This is one exceptionally tidy and desirable interior! ENGINE COMPARTMENT: There's a lot packed under this hood! It features its correct 428 Cobra Jet engine upgraded with a factory style dual-quad setup featuring two big dual feed Holley carburetors. Finned aluminum Cobra valve covers and air cleaner dress it up beautifully. It's also equipped with power steering, power brakes, and upgraded air conditioning. Every component looks clean and proper. The metal surfaces are smooth and neatly painted, with fresh looking hardware throughout. The windshield washers are hooked up, the battery is secured, and the horns work. This is one highly detailed engine compartment with plenty to offer! TRUNK COMPARTMENT: Very tidy! The underside of the lid is painted smooth with a factory sticker, new weatherstrip, and working light. The jamb is painted slick, retaining Ford part numbers and factory seams. The quarter panels appear original as claimed. Inside is neatly painted green with a mat and matching spare tire cover concealing a never used BFGoodrich tire on a black painted rim. UNDERSIDE: The attention to detail underneath this Shelby is remarkable! It was mounted on a rotisserie, and every last nut and bolt was removed. Amazingly, it still retains its original floors, which are as dry as a chalkboard! Even the original factory primer drips were preserved. The underside was meticulously prepped and resprayed in primer, just
