Right or wrong it is still a beautiful Shelby.  I think $75k would be a good price for this type of restoration, just my .02.

Wrong!  The 68 was indeed offered in Yellow so this car may be "the real deal".

Check out the facts on the Yellow 68's,

That's a cool web page. Looks like the guy should of restored it with black vinyl lettering instead of the white. The car did not come with white lettering.


Notes:  Seven GT350 convertibles were scheduled to be yellow, but only six were  produced. One of these cars was painted white by mistake.

I happen to be well educated on both the new generation Shelby's AND the old generation Shelby's and if you want to know anything about a 68 Shelby, the operator of this particular website is near, of at the top of the heap when it comes to his expertise on the 68 Shelby's.

If you need to know anything, and I mean anything about these cars, contact Pete at his "Coralsnake" website and he will be able to provide you with the facts.

It is a great website and he updates it every 4 months.

Interestingly enough, I dont show a GT350 with the yellow and saddle combination.

If numbers match, something very interesting is going on.....

Hi, i have been offered a 1968 shelby gt500 w/ no engine or tranny and its rusted, for 450$. I absolutely love 1968 shelby gt500 and think this is a good deal but i was wanting some other input. Also if you wud have a rough ballpark price of what it might be worth, without having seen photos.. thanks

First verify what it is, a messed up Mustang or restorable (expensive project) Shelby.  Check the Shelby and Ford VIN with the SAAC 68 Shelby Registrar first.

If it is a shelby, that price is a steal...
