Vehicle Description
Sunnyside Chevrolet of Elyria, Ohio in conjunction with Greg's
Sports, Classic, & Muscle is proud to offer for sale this beautiful
1968 Shelby GT500 Convertible.
Sometimes descriptions for cars are easier to write than other
times. Mustang Club of America Triple Crown Gold Level Award. End
of description- kidding but it could for all intents and purposes
be.
This GT500 Convertible is one of just 402 produced in the 1968
model year. Per the Marti Elite report it is one of 157 total
Shelby convertibles made in Lime Gold paint with black interior.
The color combination is stunning. The Marti also outlines Shoulder
Harness, Black Power Top w/Glass Backlite, Extra Cooling Package,
Visibility Group, Wheel Lip Moldings, Power Disc Brakes, Power
Steering AM Radio, Interior Decor Group and Tachometer and Trip
Meter.
Reviewing the awards this car has received since its complete,
every nut and bolt, ground up restoration there are a number of
them- ALL GOLD LEVEL. Judged in 2016 Mustang Club of America Gold
at the regional in Myrtle Beach SC. Then on to the 2017 All Ford
Show at Tulsa, OK where it receives Mid America Gold. Next it was
2017 Shelby American Automobile Club (SAAC) Gold at Indianapolis,
Indiana. Finally, in 2017 it won Mustang Club of America Grand
Nationals Gold in Overland Park, Kansas. The MCA Triple Crown Award
was received for completing at GOLD LEVEL at three different
venues, with different judges, all within a single show season.
So what, big deal, who cares. Well, if you want the best of the
best- If you want bulletproof documents that the car you are going
to own is INVESTMENT GRADE and INDISPUTEABLE then you know what
multiple gold judging means. If you don't need or want that there
are plenty of Shelby "drivers" out there in the world for your
consideration. They are less money. They are also not this car.
Rarely do I say a car is too nice to be driven- this is that car,
but here's the thing- if you want it, can afford it and choose to
drive it then have at it and congratulations.
This great GT500 is showing almost 18000 miles and by all
indications in its history the miles are believed to be
accurate.
The photos on this car are a very accurate representation of the
car. In looking at the Shelby Registry this car at one point in its
life was outfitted with a 427 Side Oiler. Now it is a correct 428
Police Interceptor with all the trimmings. Once again, judged
Gold.
Buy the Best and Never Be Disappointed.
Drive it, show it, keep it in a bubble and polish it as a prized
possession, the choice is yours once you make it yours.
We stand behind our thoughts on this car by offering our travel
expenses guarantee- come see the car and if we have materially
misrepresented its condition we will gladly pay half of your travel
expenses up to $500.00- this offer had been in place since we sold
our first classic and we haven't paid the money yet.... We pride
ourselves on having good cars and representing them properly.
