Found 68GT500KR need help

[FL SAAC]

We wish we knew why you are such a bitter person. Guess you are born that way.

May God have mercy on you

Let me leave you with these two Chinese proverbs;

1) A picture is worth a thousands words ( I have two for you )

2) 1968 more Ford than Shelby

      "Haoyun"

On the first photo where it sold for 132k, where are the letters"GT" on the front fender stripes

Don't start asking hard questions, just be happy he can cut and paste

Well that's about what you can expect from mr simon (tony), if you don't know just say so. There's no shame in not knowing.

Now lets stay on topic.


69mach351w, I don't know why the 'GT' is missing from the rocker stripe.

Do you suppose that had something to do with the low selling price?

I wonder what else was missing for this particular KR vert to sell at such a low price?

Heck, maybe it's not even a Shelby. Might be a clone. Would be a high price for a clone.

I would expect if this was a 4 speed the price would be well north of 135,000.00 even with the 10 spokes.

Its half time and what a game !

How you doing sour puss?

I even even heard at the auction someone suggests that the 68 Shelbys should be renamed 68 Shemans

Why ?

Because the 68 Shelbys like yours tanked at Mecum with the exception of a select few.

Stop high jacking this thread, this guy just want an opinion on a vehicle he found.

Hasta manana senorita tank !

Yes, that is indeed all I wanted to do. As a newbie and certainly no expert on Mustangs let alone Shelby's I just needed some advice and not a bunch of unrelated bickering. Thanks to those that helped but let's move on and stop this. We are grown ups, let's start acting like some.

No, that is not the correct answer

"You can't sell an old man's car to a young man" is true for a reason. Buyers tend to get vintage cars they lusted after as kids—so Volkswagen Golfs and Buick GNs are popular again, 30 or 40 years on. Conversely, the Midel T or 1968 Lincoln Continental your dad kept parked in the garage for years may not be as appealing. The times they are changing ...

Good talk Rick.

Glad you see what's going on...

PM me with any further questions as the static gets heavy on the forum at times

Dont be influenced by the trolls. The pendulum will swing back.

Some older reproduction stripe kits sometimes omitted the "GT". No big deal. Its amazing how people think a bad stripe job automatically means question the authenticity of the car.
