1968 SHELBY GT350 CONVERTIBLE

Just recently acquired from a long-term collector in Michigan. A good testament to the quality of this car is knowing that the restoration work including and overall bare metal paint refinish was completed over 20 years ago. This 1968 unmolested 302ci 8-cylinder engine and a 4-speed manual transmission convertible appears as though the work was just finished. A very thorough service including the fitment of new correct original equipment tires was just completed and finished with a good road test. A detailed inspection reveals that this Shelby is an original drivetrain car. The car was cared for all of its life as there is no evidence of rust repair with mint original floors and factory dated original quarter panels. Another good indicator of the life this Shelby has led is recognizing the mostly original interior and the superb condition it is in. What restoration work that has been performed is of a professional level of quality in both labor and replacement parts. Important in the ownership of any Shelby are two pieces of historical documentation of which this car has both. A clear listing in the registry of the Shelby American automobile club which maintains Shelby?s original records and secondly a Marti Report backing up Ford Motor Company?s build records from 1968.
