That's awesome. Is it black or Highland Green? More info? 4-speed? Love those big block Shelbys!

Wow what a find. Such a shame it sat like that since 1978.

WOW!
I wonder how many convertibles they made in that model car? Has to be very, very low.

How in the holy hell did you find that???

Now that's an amazing barn find. Thankfully at least it was stored in a storage container. 4-speed, 428....rare indeed!

Unreal. I now love the barn find cars so much more than a restored car however original the owner keeps it. My uncle bought an all original 58 fuel injected vette that was stored in a California barn a few years ago. I never appreciated it that much until then. Unbelievable find man.

Interesting, the vacuum advance canister on the distributor is from a C6 car.

That badging looks wrong to me for some reason.

Nevermind, i just looked at some other pics. Looks right.

WOW! These cars are what cemented me being such a gear head. First job after high school in 1970 was working as a parts driver at Reynolds Ford in Syracuse, NY, I would come in early to get OT and I would drive service customers to work and then bring their car back. Some attorney in Syr. had a similar 67 or 68 Shelby GT500 Vert that he brought in fairly regularly and I rode with him to work and brought the car back fairly often too. I can only imagine what this car is going to go for.
