This 1968 Shelby Mustang GT500KR is one of 1,053 “King of the Road” fastback models produced during a three-month period from May through July of 1968.
Power comes from a replacement 428ci Cobra Jet V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, and the car is finished in Raven Black over black knitted vinyl.
Shelby GT500 equipment included grille-mounted fog lights, a fiberglass hood with a functional ram-air scoop, air scoops on the sail panels and rear fenders, a Kamm-type rear spoiler, and Thunderbird-style tail lights.
The instrument cluster was repaired and LED lighting was added in 2017, and total mileage is unknown.
