Bish Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 For your consideration is a 1968 Highland Green Ford Shelby Mustang GT 350 Fastback, #2103 This Shelby is an original, rust free, unrestored survivor car that has a little over 45K original documented miles. This car has 4-speed transmission, it wears most of its original paint and looks very good for its age. Since this Shelby is unmolested, it has a partial build sheet lodged in the right inner fender well and has the cleanest underbody I've ever seen with numerous unique factory markings. The interior is in original condition and only minor wearable items such as belts, hoses and exhaust have been replaced with period correct replacements wherever possible. This car runs and drives very well for its age and I would not hesitate to drive it any distance. This car is fully documented with SAAC and in May 0f 2014 it was inspected by Shelby American Automobile Club judges, Mike Shally, Rodney Harrold, Tim Lea, Chris Thauberger and Peter Disher. These individuals have over 100 years of combined experience inspecting 1968 Shelbys. I have a detailed report verifying #2103's authenticity from Pete Disher and it will be supplied to the new owner. This report along with a wealth of original paperwork, including the original bill of sale, original owners manual with registration from the state of Mass and other items including its factory build sheet that are special to this Shelby to solidify its unique pedigree. Shelbys like this don't into the public market often, its unique survivor status makes it very rare, and it could be years before a Shelby in this condition hits the open market. Price $89,500 OBO Detailed information including numerous high definition pictures, SAAC judging sheets, report from Mr. Disher and video can be found the following web site. http://bish67.wixsite.com/mysite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shel-b001 Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Looking at the first photo it lists the sale price as $89,900 not sure if this is what he is asking. Very nice car . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeljgt500kr Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 Very nice, and very unique car, most Shelbys were not treated so kindly and preserved in such original condition. But in looking through the SAAC 39 judging sheets, I guess they give no awards for Div.III "Survivor" cars? Strange, you would think those would be highly prized and awarded as they are so rare.

mikeljgt500kr Posted July 24, 2016 Report Share Posted July 24, 2016 SAAC awards DIV lll survivor cars basis the determination of the car qualifying or not qualifying. I know, it is like pass/fail for the "Chairman's Award", but that is very broad in terms of quality of preservation, very few like this one. At SAAC 40 there was only one '68 Div.III, and it was a rusty, beat up, dirty example totally different from this pristine version. I really think SAAC should beef up this class to encourage more original cars to be entered rather than focusing on the Div. I and Div. II over-restored and static museum display type cars. But, I have had that conversation at SAAC and MCA and no one wants to encourage original, pristine cars to be entered. I suspect the judges, many of them who have restoration shops to earn their living, want it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bish Posted August 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 1, 2016 Thanks for your kind words regarding my Shelby. Yes, you won't find many in this condition. If anyone knows of a buyer for my car I'm willing to give a finders fee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
