Four Shelby Mustangs To Auction This Weekend | Bonus ‘Stang Inside!

It should come as little surprise that a Louisville car auction will be heavy with Mustangs, after all, it is the home of the Kentucky Derby. However, this weekend they’re purebreds of a different breed as four different Shelby Mustangs will cross the block at Mecum Louisville.

Highly original this GT350 has its date code correct J-code 302 CI V-8 engine as well as original interior. It has undergone one refresh of the paint, but to factory specifications.

1969 Shelby GT500 Fastback

Packing a 428 CI Ram Air Cobra Jet V-8 engine and race tuned suspension this ’69 was built to stretch her legs. Perhaps an early entry for next years running at Churchill Downs?

1968 Shelby GT350 Convertible

1 of just 404 convertibles made in ’68 this Shelby went through a complete rotisserie restoration in 1990. As a result it features a crisp code T Candy Apple Red, date code correct J-code 302 CI V-8 engine and 73,120 original miles.
