1967 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500

Introduced for 1967, the GT500 marked the arrival of Shelby's first big-block Mustang, combining Ford's FE-series 428 V8 with Carroll Shelby's distinctive fiberglass bodywork to create one of the most recognizable American performance cars of the muscle car era. This documented example has been fully restored, during which time its engine was overhauled, and is accompanied by a collection of documentation that includes a Shelby Registry Entry, Marti Report, photocopies of the original invoice and production order, restoration records, and the Owner's Manual. Finished in its factory Lime Gold exterior over a Black Deluxe interior, this GT500 presents the unmistakable styling that distinguished Shelby's flagship Mustang from its Ford counterpart. The fiberglass front fascia incorporates inboard driving lights, while the functional dual-scoop fiberglass hood, quarter panel scoops, integrated rear spoiler, and Cougar-style taillamps define the car's unmistakable profile. Shelby 5-spoke wheels wrapped in Goodyear Speedway bias ply tires complete the period-correct appearance, while the quality of the restoration is evident in the consistent panel fit, finish, and attention to factory presentation throughout. Power comes from a 428ci V8 equipped with dual Holley 4-barrel carburetors, an aluminum intake manifold, a Cobra air cleaner, and finned aluminum Cobra Le Mans valve covers. The engine was overhauled during the 2009 restoration and is paired with a VIN-matching Toploader 4-speed manual transmission. A Ford 9" rear axle with 3.55 gearing and a Traction-Lok differential sends power to the rear wheels. Equipped with the Extra Cooling Package, the chassis also features power steering, power front disc brakes, factory-style suspension components, and a factory-style dual exhaust system. The Black Deluxe interior reflects Shelby's grand touring character with bucket seats, a fold-down rear seat, wood-rim steering wheel, brushed aluminum trim, and period Stewart Warner auxiliary gauges. Factory options include the Interior Décor Group and Courtesy Light Group, while the cabin maintains the authentic appearance expected of a properly restored GT500. Every detail complements the car's factory specifications and reinforces the quality of the restoration completed by the RK Collection. Representing the inaugural year of the GT500 and Shelby's first big-block Mustang, this documented example combines desirable factory equipment with a comprehensive restoration and outstanding provenance. Accompanied by its Owner's Manual, Shelby Registry Entry, Marti Report, photocopies of the original invoice and production order, and restoration records, it is a well-documented example of one of Shelby American's most celebrated performance cars.
