A car with special provenance, this all-original 1969 Shelby GT500
Fastback, now featured in the Maxmotive Pittsburgh Showroom, was
formerly owned and loved by Carroll Shelby himself. Powered by its
original, numbers matching 428ci Cobra Jet 335hp V8 engine mated to
the original 4-speed manual transmission and factory shifter, this
is one survivor that has lived a life of royalty. The car is
accompanied by the Shelby Vehicle Authenticity Certificate,
documineting Carroll Shelby's ownership, Shelby sales brochure,
Elite Marti Report, and more. Obviously well cared for since new, a
recent service has been performed. 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 his 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. The GT500 came with a fiberglass ram air hood,
fiberglass front and rear fenders, and sequential turn signals.
Today the car presents in highly original condition showing only
64,505 miles. It is truly "Shelby's Shelby," sure to be a welcome
addition to any premier collection. MaxMotive is pleased to offer
you the opportunity to acquire this desirable and especially
significant automobile. Detailed photos and information are
