Overview of 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby For Sale by Owner

By 1968, the Shelby Mustang, the Ford Mustang's high-performance derivative, was enjoying tremendous success. Carroll Shelby put his nine years of racing experience into these cars, making them difficult to rival in the automotive market at the time. Nonetheless, Ford and Shelby yearned for more and felt that the pony car can become more compelling. The result was the improved 428 Police Interceptor engine, which was dubbed the 428 Cobra jet. This powerhouse was installed in the ramped-up Shelby GT500, helping to boost the pony cars desirability. Today, these Mustangs are increasing in value among the muscle car enthusiasts and collectors. This is your chance to own this stunning example of the 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500.

1929 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Street Rod

Current Ask
$35,000

This 1929 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Street Rod takes one of Ford’s most iconic early body styles and turns it into something far more rowdy. Showing just 470 miles, it blends upright Model A proportions with the ingredients enthusiasts expect from a traditional street rod: a 302ci V8, 4-barrel carburetor, automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, aftermarket suspension, and a custom exhaust system. What really gives this car its personality, though, is the visual treatment. The Lilac Metallic finish, custom devil and flame airbrush artwork, black vinyl roof, chrome trim, and polished wheels make it the kind of hot rod that stands out immediately rather than trying to imitate a factory restoration. The rebuilt title brand should also be noted.
