Equipment
302/250hp, 4-speed, Shelby wheels, Radial T/A tires, boot cover, bucket seats, console, factory AM/FM radio, tilt steering column.
Condition
From the Waterford collection, 73,720 miles from new. Pretty tired older paint with a few chips and touch ups on the nose and hood. Very dull and scratched up windshield frame. Lightly worn but tired interior with a dull appearance. Restored in the 1990s to a reasonable but not particularly high standards, then enjoyed and now starting to show its age.
Market commentary
By 1968, Shelby Mustangs had gotten heavier and less overtly sporty as Ford became much more involved in the process, but they are still highly sought after and expensive cars even in average driver condition like this one. Unsold on the block at this bid, it closed post-block for the same amount as the consignor realized this was an opportunity not to be missed.
