Our featured 1968 Shelby Mustang GT350 is a true survivor with only 53,000 miles (85,800 kms) on the clock. Its colour is called Meadowlark Yellow and was a special order with the paint code WT6066 for 1968 Shelbys only. In total only 109 cars got this colour and only eight were fastbacks. The vehicle was originally assembled at the Ford Metuchen plant in New Jersey in May 1968 before getting the Shelby treatment at the Ionia plant.
The first owner was a serviceman based in Japan with the US Air Force. He sold it in 2005 and the car was imported to New Zealand after being purchased for a museum in Putaruru. The vehicle then ended up in a private collection in October 2006 where it stayed for 15 years and only travelled 2000 miles (3200km approx.) in that time. The current owner has owned it since July 2021.
