HHHHHmmmmmmmmmm, I wonder what happened to the other 866 1968 GT500 Shelby fastbacks. I believe that your facts and figures are mistaken............(insert sarcasim here) But then again, what would "I" know about Mustangs and Shelbys..............

Hmmm? I will check, I have just read that somewhere...Perhaps registered 68 Shelby 500's?
|
In that case over 750 of them are currently registered with SAAC.

You have mail
Hello,
You have mail :) |
Ok, I just checked, it appears that 178 left with Auto Tranny & orig. A/C option...Sorry for that.
I replied Unique! |
I figured it was something like 178 with particular specs, like auto and AC.
I wonder how many automatics were made anyway? Doesn't seem like the kind of option one would normally want in such a car. Ernie |
Automatic trans in Shelby

I am sure with a A/C & Auto Tranny option it was sold to someone who wasn't into the 1/4 miles racing?
More of a exec car perhaps? |
How about posting the full VIN and door data plate information here.
Bill S. |
Sure Bill, here is the vin #
8T025169113-00192 |
You do mean:

Yes, looking at it again, I think its a "S"

Interesting! DaltonDavid: if an "S" indicates a GT390 what would the character be for a GT500? Thanks.

Thanks for the interesting info David!

Cracker,
I am no authority by far on the Shelby Mustangs, but I don't think there was a letter designating one as a 500. Shelby got the regular Mustangs from Ford and then they did the work and added the Shelby numbers to it. That is the only sure way to authinticate one. You have to take the Shelby tag number and the Mustang number from Ford and send them to the SAAC as they have the records. Also they won't be in any sequence. For example maybe the Mustang from Ford with sequence # 50 may be #65 from Shelby. When one of the guys finished a Mustang they just took the next Shelby number in line and since some finished ahead of others that kept the sequence from being in order. Also makes it next to impossible to clone one and pass it of as an original. Ron |
How do you love yours David? Thanks for that interesting info too!
No trades though guys... |
