Don't miss your chance to bring home this classic Mustang.
The 1968 Shelby GT500 is an enduring symbol of American muscle, born from the legendary collaboration between Ford and Carroll Shelby. Coming off consecutive Le Mans victories over Ferrari in 1966 and 1967, Ford took the reins from Shelby in 1968, moving production in-house to Metuchen, New Jersey. The GT500 retained the signature Shelby styling and performance upgrades that enthusiasts had come to expect.
This particular 1968 Shelby GT500, restored by renowned expert Hunter Willard, stands out as a truly remarkable specimen. Presented in its original Wimbledon White exterior paired with a Black Décor Vinyl interior, the car is a stunning example of classic design and meticulous restoration. A white vinyl power convertible top adds an extra layer of allure, complementing the car’s already striking appearance.
Under the hood lies the heart of the GT500: a 428 cubic inch engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Known for its performance on the track and the road, this highly detailed engine fires up with precision, a testament to the careful restoration work performed. The vehicle's history is further bolstered by its AACA Grand National Award nomination in 2016 and its eventual win in 2018, signaling its status as an investment-grade collector’s item.
With documentation such as the Deluxe Marti Report and a copy of the original build sheet, this GT500 is ready to take its place in any high-end collection. Whether you’re an enthusiast or a collector, this 1968 Shelby GT500 offers a rare chance to own a piece of automotive history, combining both beauty and performance.
The Saratoga Motorcar Auction will take place on September 20-21. There will be over 400 vehicle and automobilia lots with many at NO RESERVE.
