Vehicle Description
This re-creation of a 1968 Shelby GT350 was built for and donated
to the Carroll Shelby Automotive Program at Northeast Texas
Community College by Barry Smith, owner of Legendary GT
Continuation Cars in Roaring Springs, PA. This Continuation-series
Shelby GT350 is built from the original 1960s-era Mustang, with
factory VIN and original title. The car was stripped to bare metal
for transformation into the Shelby GT350 model; built in the same
spirit as those that won the FIA Sports Car World Championship in
1965 and dominated racing in the period. The body is finished in
Wimbledon White and has all-new fiberglass and steel panels,
including reinforced shock towers and Shelby-specific parts. The
engine is a 302 Ford small-block with a 4-speed Toploader manual
transmission. The parts used to complete the driveline/unibody
include (but are not limited to) the differential, brake system,
all suspension parts, gas tank, fuel system parts, cooling system
and wiring harness, and are either New Old Stock, refurbished
originals or remanufactured. The final assembly of the vehicle
needed parts unique only to Shelby, including Shelby wheels, tires,
convertible top parts, windshields, side windows, window hardware,
dash gauge cluster, console, taillight assembly, fog lights,
grille, emblems, seats, carpeting, body seals, roll bar, steering
column and bumpers. **TITLED AS A 1968 FORD MUSTANG** **100% OF
