Shelby Nationals Concours Heritage Gold GT500KR 428 Cobra Jet V8 C6 3 Speed PS
Fully documented, rotisserie restored Shelby Nationals Concours Heritage Gold GT500KR that's decked in correct Lime Gold 2-stage… That's really all we need to say to build excitement for our latest investment grade Ford. According to Ford expert Kevin Marti, this registry-listed Shelby was produced on May 14th, 1968 and delivered down south to Rivers Ford of Monroe, Louisiana. After four decades of excellent maintenance and accident-free living, the car was purchased by its present owner and enjoyed as a solid driver. As we all know, drivers are fun, and the car racked up quite a few MCA Concours awards in that state, but sometimes it's just better to take things to the next level. So, in 2014, this clean Mustang benefitted from a professional, rotisserie restoration that was completed by Shelby specialist Tim Lea of North Andover, Massachusetts. When the car emerged from the shop in May of 2015, everything was 100% correct all the way down to original, assembly-spec oil and air filters. And today, sporting correct Lime Gold Metallic 2-stage under familiar Shelby side stripes, it rolls as a first-class showpiece that secured both Gold and Silver honors in the 2015 SAAC Concours Heritage Class. While the car's professionally rebuilt engine isn't original equipment, it is a highly accurate, date-correct 428. Behind that mill, a tough C6 3-speed spins a correct Traction-Lok differential around correct 3.50 gears. At the front of that drivetrain, a rebuilt suspension centers correct power steering between correct power disc brakes. And power meets the ground through E70-15 Kelsey repros, which wrap correct, KR-exclusive black sidewalls around appropriate Shelby 10-spokes. With its exclusive, era-correct powertrain, fresh, highly accurate restoration and outstanding provenance, this SAAC Concours-winning Mustang represents investment grade muscle at its very finest!
