1968 GT 500 Convertible Shelby Mustang V.I.N. 8T03S169291-01044

1 of 402, 1968 GT 500 Convertibles “Acapulco Blue” originally built at Ford’s Metuchen plant on February 23, 1968, shipped to Fuller Ford Inc. of Cincinnati , OH on March 14, 1968. This Shelby has been meticulously restored to its original condition by David Randal of Randal’s Restorations. The body was media blasted down to the bare metal and sealed with epoxy primer prior to receiving a base coat clear coat urethane finish by the Pros at Rod Epperson’s Hotrod’s Toy Shop of Kerrville Texas . Rod and his two sons Jerred and Dan Epperson of Hotrod’s Toy Shop applied all the finishes. The original 428 Police Intercepter engine was balanced and blueprinted by Duffins Machine Shop of San Antonio Texas. The original steel wheels and hubcaps have been upgraded to the more appealing and stylish ten spoke wheels. Aside from the mag wheel upgrade this Shelby is like it was the day it came off the assembly line.
