Background Story of this 1968 Ford Mustang

Overview of 1968 Ford Mustang For Sale by Owner

A Ford Mustang, particularly a first-generation variant is a highly desirable car, but add the word 'Shelby' to the sentence, and it truly ascends into greatness. That's because renowned racer and tuner Carroll Shelby turned his attention to the Mustang and created a string of greats that still bear his name. If you're looking to pick up one of these epic cars, we've got a nice 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 E Restoration that's ripe for the taking. Let's find out what it brings to its next lucky owner.

Exterior and Interior

First off, the black metallic paint job on this 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 E Restoration makes it truly sinister in appearance, aided by the gray metallic over-the-top stripes. The current owner reports it to contain new quarter panels, new fenders, new chrome parts, and functional side scoops. We also observe new headlamps and foglamps adorning the menacing frontal outlook of this car. Rolling on a set of 17-inch 407 Shelby licensed extra-wide wheels with reportedly new Nitto tires, you're assured that this car has the go-factor to match its looks. Inside, there's said to be an all-new interior with leather-trimmed high-back bucket seats, an overhead console with map lights, a tilt steering wheel, a Hurst shifter, and Carroll Shelby signature gauges, including a tachometer. GT500 Eleanor-style seat belts keep everyone safe, while there's even a new Pioneer head unit with Bluetooth capabilities, broadening your choice of driving tunes to a great degree.

Engine

This 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500 E Restoration has received a heart transplant, with a 429ci Cobra Jet engine sitting under the hood that's said to be good for 500hp. A five-speed TKO-600 manual transmission and a 9-inch Positraction rear end with a 3.73 ratio handle power transfer to the road. Then, there's Holley Sniper fuel injection with self-tuning, complete MSD ignition, a Holley 850CFM double pumper, ported heads, custom-made stainless steel headers, an Edelbrock RPM air gap intake, a custom fuel tank and an electric fuel pump to keep the engine running smoothly and reliably. A Wilwood master cylinder and 4-wheel disc brakes take care of stopping, while steering is enhanced by a rack and pinion power steering system. Next up, the suspension has received a comprehensive overhaul. Highlights include a HEIDTS fully adjustable coilover setup and new Q1A shocks. With all that work, this 'Stang's next owner will be an extremely lucky person.

2020 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$94,999
SOLD

Ford gives its Mustang pony car plenty of gallop straight from the factory. But what if you want a raging racehorse instead? Well, that’s where you’d need to venture into the realm of Shelby. Shelby Mustangs are worshipped and revered as some of the most potent around, ever since Carroll Shelby looked at the first-generation Mustang and decided to work his magic on it. Now, Shelby Mustangs roll out of the Ford factory itself, in tribute to the great man who sadly left us some years back. Today, we have a 2020 Ford Mustang GT350 for sale from Gilbert, Arizona with just 5,900 miles to its name. What’s even nicer is that it’s been tuned by Lund Racing and features a supercharger installed on to its 5.2-liter V8. This, the 6-speed manual transmission and many more things make this the ultimate performance Mustang for the discerning driving enthusiast.

1966 Ford Mustang Convertible

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$39,999
SOLD

One of the best ways to experience a classic car is to cruise down in town with a drop-top first-generation Ford Mustang. You’ll be guaranteed to receive smiles, waves and general gestures of appreciation because who doesn’t love a Mustang? Introduced in 1964, the Mustang created a class of car called the pony car, and also facilitated an entire culture of happy, carefree cruising. Drop-top examples like this 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible are most facilitative of this culture, and will definitely invoke fond memories from many of those who were around at the time. Heck, even the new generation will love the car’s simplicity and characterful nature. This particular pony is up for sale in Westlake, Louisiana with 7,337 miles on the clock, we’re told. It’s also been fitted with aftermarket air conditioning, a retro stereo, a new convertible top and new whitewall tires too!

1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS

Current Ask
VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$109,999

Chevy’s answer to Ford’s pony car challenge, the Camaro came in 1967 and brought a sister along for the ride, in the shape of the Pontiac Firebird. This was a smart move by General Motors as it allowed them to sell two suitably varied models in the same segment but with much of the same underpinnings, engines and other components. The Firebird was axed in 2002 but the Camaro continued to be made until 2024. That makes it the second longest-running pony car in history. Today, we’ve got a nice first-generation 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS for sale in St. Cloud, Florida. This 1969 Chevrolet Camaro SS 396 is a show-stopping example of American muscle restored to concours-level detail. Verified by its X66 code and built at the Norwood, Ohio plant, this real-deal Super Sport coupe combines factory originality with subtle performance enhancements that elevate both its drivability and collectability. With its matching-numbers big-block, correct Turbo 400 transmission, and period-authentic Holley 4346 carburetor, this Camaro is the perfect blend of raw 1960s muscle and expert craftsmanship.

1967 Chevrolet Corvette

PENDING SALE
$89,999

Chevy’s second-generation Corvette was made from 1963 to 1967, but across that relatively short lifcycle, over 117,000 examples found homes. This highlights how popular the Corvette was back then, much like it is now. The second generation or C2 brought about many features that we know from later ‘Vettes, such as pop-up headlamps, the boat-tailed styling, and the exclusive use of V8s for the Corvette – the C1 did offer a six cylinder early in its lifecycle but that wasn’t deemed worthy for a top-tier sports car. Today, we’ve got a 1967 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe for sale from Shohola, Pennsylvania, and let us tell you it’s a catch. With a growling 327 under the hood, this is classic American car nirvana at its finest. Plus, given the great condition of the car, it’s a sure-fire appreciating asset if you continue to look after it. If you’re interested in getting your hands on this beauty, we’re waiting for your call or DM.

1977 Chevrolet Corvette

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$20,000

Chevy’s third-generation Corvette of 1968 to 1982 was the best-seller in the entire range, in terms of generational numbers. Thanks to its super-long production run, over 542,000 were made, despite it carrying on through the dreaded Malaise Era. During these dark times for automotive enthusiasts, Chevy worked hard to maintain the Corvette as one of the fastest American cars around – of course that was a subjective term, but impressive, nonetheless. Hence, a C3 Corvette is a robust way to enter the world of classic American cars. Want to know more? We’ve got a 1977 Chevrolet Corvette for sale from Littleton, Colorado right here. It packs a 350ci L48 under the hood, paired with an automatic transmission to make it more convenient for those who never bothered to learn stick shift.
