Vehicle Description
Lot #718 - This 1968 Shelby GT500KR with a 428ci engine is worthy
of being called the King of the Road. This is one of the original
518 convertibles and one of 231 produced in Acapulco Blue that was
delivered in May 1968 (per the Marti Report). It was delivered to
actor Lee Marvin with the invoice showing Marvin as the recipient
and signed by Bob Ford. This mint-condition car features the
signature on the console, "Best Wishes Lee Marvin, Carroll Shelby."
The car comes with Lee Marvin memorabilia. In 1991, this car was
featured on cover of Mustang Magazine. It's equipped with C6 Select
automatic transmission, power steering, power brakes and air
conditioning. It also comes with a street set of tires and rims, as
well as the original tires and rims from 1968. It has 46,000
original miles with only 1,500 miles driven since it was rebuilt.
All the original equipment is in place and is in pristine
condition.
