  • 1968 Shelby GT500 KR Fastback • 1 of 1053 • Restored to very high standard • Shelby Registry • Acapulco Blue #3077-A • 428 Cobra Jet motor • 3.50 Traction-Lok axle ratio • 4 speed transmission • Tilt a way steering column • Marti report and well documented KR 500 • One of the finest examples anywhere Shelby’s Mustang offered many improvements for a customer demanding a ‘King of the Road’ Cobra. A redesigned front end, hood and rear end, with 1967 Cougar tail lights, were manufactured out of fiber glass. While the fiberglass helped reduce the weight of these components, the 1967 body style was much larger and heavier than preceding models. As an example of how good Shelby-Ford relationship was, the car sent to Shelby did not have hoods or front ends. Interior appointments were very similar to the deluxe interiors delivered by Ford. Shelby only installed a functional roll bar and a wood-rimmed steering wheel. Ford conservatively rated the 428 CJ at 335-horsepower, but in reality, it made more than 400-horsepower and 440 pounds-feet of torque. The KR model was also equipped with a modified suspension and was offered both in fastback and convertible models. Ford dealers sold 1,570 GT500KR models in 1968, 1053 fastbacks and 517 convertibles. This Shelby KR500 is one of the finest anywhere. A wonderful American muscle car. Great addition to any collection. No excuses here!
