LOT #1438 - 1968 SHELBY GT350 – NO RESERVE
The 1968 Shelby GT350 Fastback Mustang is finished in its original
Raven Black exterior over a preserved black interior. This original
California Black Plate example was sold new through Theodore Robins
Ford in Costa Mesa, CA, and was maintained by its original owner
until 1996, when he contacted renowned Shelby expert Stephen Becker.
Becker in turn introduced the owner and his prized GT350 to Carroll
Shelby personally. This is not just a Shelby GT350 - this is the one that
Carroll Shelby had to have for himself.
Today this Shelby GT350 presents in original condition with its
matching-numbers 350ci engine. A recent service has been performed
and it comes with an array of documentation, including an Elite Marti
Report, owner's manual, partial Build Sheet, registrations in the name of
Carroll Shelby Enterprises and a Shelby Vehicle Authenticity Certificate.
77,107 actual miles (mileage not indicated on the title).
