Vehicle Description
High Line Green 1968 Shelby GT500 convertible with original black
interior and a white power convertible top with glass backlight.
This rare, one of only 402 produced, unrestored
GT500 convertible
spent its whole life in dry and sunny Arizona which accounts for
its
completely original sheet metal resulting in doors, hood and trunk
lid that open and
fit like when it was new. This Shelby is believed to have 86,000
actual miles with 3 known owners, one of which owned the car for
over 34 years and the previous owner enjoyed it for the last
13.
The life of this rare piece of Shelby history
is documented with many service records, receipts, Shelby fender
tag,
build sheet and Marti report.
Powered by a freshly rebuilt 428 c.i. engine, C6 automatic
transmission and 9 inch rear with 3.50 axle ratio and limited slip
differential.
All of the original Shelby body appointments are in place and in
great shape
as well as the
foglamps and emblems.
The exterior chrome and stainless trim is in excellent original
condition.
This American Dream Machine is riding on the correct wheels with
Shelby mag style
hubcaps and Goodyear white letter tires for timeless good
looks.
