History About This particular Type Mustang Model:
Early Ford Mustangs are still among one of the strongest blue Chip
investment any car collector could make. Honing in on some of most
rare examples can cost someone their children's college education,
and if so, these examples are most certainly to have the Carroll
Shelby badge affixed to them. So, most enthusiasts of the popular
Mustang GT350 will settle for a recreation, or tribute, over the
real thing. One particular example would be one never officially
offered to the public, a 1966 GT350 Convertible. Although it is
rumored a few were built special for Ford's elite and Carroll
Shelby himself. This 1966 Mustang Convertible is a superb example
built to satisfy both the visual eye and the performance appetite
of anyone lucky enough to park in their garage!
