Description

This 1968 Shelby GT500 KR has been with our customer for almost 35 years. It was in storage for many years and required mechanical freshening as well as a restoration to the original color. We began with a mechanical rundown inside and out, and performed necessary repairs to make this Shelby roadworthy once again.

We also did a bare metal repaint with bodywork, to get it back to its original color of lime green metallic. We also restored the original 10-spoke wheels. Now it's rolling down the road looking and running great.
