History About This particular Type Mustang Model:
Early Ford Mustangs are still among one of the strongest blue Chip investment any car collector could make. Honing in on some of most rare examples can cost someone their children's college education, and if so, these examples are most certainly to have the Carroll Shelby badge affixed to them. So, most enthusiasts of the popular Mustang GT350 will settle for a recreation, or tribute, over the real thing. One particular example would be one never officially offered to the public, a 1966 GT350 Convertible. Although it is rumored a few were built special for Ford's elite and Carroll Shelby himself. This 1966 Mustang Convertible is a superb example built to satisfy both the visual eye and the performance appetite of anyone lucky enough to park in their garage!
