For 1968, Ford replaced the previous 428 with the Cobra Jet 428, which featured larger valve heads, an intake manifold borrowed from the race-ready 427, and ram air induction, all aimed at pushing horsepower toward 400. It powered the new GT500 KR (King of the Road), which was the fastest, most luxurious Mustang to date. This fastback features a padded rollbar, as well as interior upgrades such as woodgrain trim and unique gauges, the exterior for the GT500 features a fiberglass nose and tail section, functional hood scoops, and four side air scoops.
This Shelby is powered by a period correct, 428 Cobra Jet engine. The 4 speed transmission shifts great. The Medium Blue paint is in good shape but does show some flaws due to age. The interior is still in really good condition and the center console is autographed by the legendary, Carroll Shelby. A Marti Report has been ordered but rest assured, this is a Real Deal, Shelby GT500 KR. With only 1,053 of these ever produced, there is far fewer than that remaining. This car is very period correct. Get your hands on this investment before you can't find one. Call today.
