1970 Shelby GT350 - One Of One Example, Factory Gulfstream Aqua,
Four Speed With Air Conditioning
The 1970 Shelby GT350 represents the conclusion of one of the most
important chapters in American performance-car history. Combining
Carroll Shelby's competition-inspired identity with the comfort and
refinement of Ford's evolving Mustang platform, the GT350 offered
buyers a distinctive blend of muscular styling, strong V8
performance and genuine grand-touring capability. Today, these
final-year Shelby Mustangs are prized for their limited production,
unmistakable appearance and historical significance.
This exceptional 1970 Shelby GT350 Convertible is documented as a
true one-of-one example. Finished in striking factory Gulfstream
Aqua and equipped with the highly desirable four-speed manual
transmission and factory air conditioning, it represents one of the
rarest specifications offered. It is one of only 14 examples
painted Gulfstream Aqua and one of just four fitted with a
four-speed manual transmission.
Built on May 7, 1969, this GT350 was sold new through Canyon Ford
in Phoenix, Arizona. Its attractive Gulfstream Aqua finish, open
convertible bodywork and performance-oriented manual transmission
are complemented by the comfort of factory air conditioning,
creating an exceptionally rare combination of performance, style
and usability.
What makes this Shelby particularly remarkable is its extraordinary
state of preservation. Never restored and incredibly original
throughout, it offers the authenticity that can only be found in a
carefully preserved survivor. Its original undercarriage still
displays factory assembly-line markings, providing an invaluable
reference to how these cars were originally constructed and
finished.
This important GT350 is accompanied by its build sheet and a Deluxe
Marti Report, and its history is documented in the Shelby Registry.
Combining one-of-one specifications, exceptional originality,
desirable factory colours and outstanding documentation, this
Gulfstream Aqua GT350 Convertible represents a rare opportunity to
acquire one of the most compelling final-year Shelby Mustangs in
existence.
