GTs for 1969 saw the GT350 equipped with a 351 cubic-inch V8 and

professional and well off, the buyers Shelby and Ford targeted
wanted performance at their disposal but, also demanded their
performance cars be comfortable and reliable daily drivers. The
1969 model year received an extensive face lift with the body
increasing in length by 4 inches. The new exterior look for 1969
was long and low with racy styling having looks that seems to dare
anything on the road to try and challenge it. These Shelby's were
known for racing car handling in the day with lots of power to the
asphalt and the suspension and brakes to take a corner at speed and
ride right through the curve. In 1969, there were only 194 GT350
Convertibles that rolled off the assembly line compared to the 335
GT500 Convertibles. This makes the GT350 much rarer than the GT500
in the opinion of many Shelby fans. Turn the chrome button hood

Numbers Matching M-Code 351 power plant that defined this model
year of Shelby Mustangs. This Shelby has the rare and very

letter tires mounted on Shelby five spoke chrome wheels drives this
machine. Power exits through two rectangular ports located in the
center under the license plate out the back. Power front disc, rear
drum brakes and power steering were mandatory options. This GT350
is 1 of only 42 to leave the factory in Acapulco Blue and
complimented nicely by its black interior and Black Power Soft Top.
There are dual body tone racing mirrors with the Driver Remote
Mirror. The Shelby's interior of Black Clarion Knit Vinyl has
excellent seat surfaces and overall great condition ready to be
fully enjoyed by the next Shelby enthusiast. The paint is in a show
quality condition and far better than it ever left the factory back
