Incredible opportunity to acquire a GT500 Fastback with outstanding
provenance
A collector’s dream!
The 1969 Shelby GT500 Fastback Mustang featured here is
presented in its factory finish of Royal Maroon over a wonderfully
preserved white knit interior. This exceptional example was
assembled in January 1969 in Dearborn, Michigan, and sold new at
Pletcher Ford in Jenkintown, Pennsylvania to its first owner. It
remained with its first and only owner until Shelby expert Stephen
Becker learned of the car being offered for sale. Becker informed
Carroll Shelby personally of its availability and shortly after,
the GT500 was procured by Carroll Shelby for his personal
collection. Carroll was so enthralled with the GT500 that he
personally adorned it with the famous Terlingua Racing Team logo on
the windshield, in reference to the racing team that Shelby
co-founded in 1965. Today this GT500 presents in highly original
condition showing only 64,000 miles and is still powered by its
numbers matching 428ci “Cobra Jet” 335hp V8 engine. The Shelby is
accompanied by an Elite Marti Report, Shelby sales brochure, Shelby
Vehicle Authenticity Certificate (confirming Carroll Shelby’s
ownership) and more. A recent service has been performed and this
GT500 is sure to be a welcome addition to any premier collection.
