Documented SAAC Gold Shelby GT500 Convertible 428 Police Intercepter V8 C6

Are you ready for an investment grade Shelby? Then check out this documented, SAAC Gold GT500! Our story begins in 1980, when one of this award-winning pony's previous owners stored his newfound classic in hopes of conducting a complete restoration. Fast-forward to 2005 when that classic, in multiple pieces, was spotted by the current owner and rescued with a healthy sum of cash and roughly five years of careful resuscitation. Aesthetically, that nut-and-bolt rotisserie rebuild began with a full strip of the car's mostly original body, progressed to correct Highland Green 2-stage, and finished with traditional stripes and a correct top. And today, with the exception of roughly 500 easy miles, this sweet Ford spends all of its time in a climate-controlled garage. Lift the lightweight hood and you'll find a correct, 428 cubic inch Police Interceptor V8 that's branded with a C6ME-A casting number and January (A) 4th (4), 1968 (8) casting date. Unfortunately, the car's original engine was too far gone to repair and restore, so its present owner called SEMO Mustang, sourced a date-correct replacement and had it professionally built by Hampton Engines of Westhampton Beach, New York. That legendary V8 spins a correct C6 3-speed, rebuilt by the pros at T-Jay's Transmissions of Riverhead, New York, which turns a tough Ford 9-inch around correct, 3.00 gears. At the front of the car, factory control arms hang correct power steering between correct power disc brakes. And at the edges of the car, power meets pavement through familiar Shelby 10-spokes and E70-15 Goodyear Speedways. Shelby Mustangs are about as collectible as '60s muscle cars get. They're fun to drive, fun to show and continue to be top-notch performers that hold their value exceptionally well.
