As listed in the Shelby American Automobile Club’s 1968-70 Shelby Registry, this 1968 Shelby GT350 fastback was delivered new to Dub Richardson Ford in Oklahoma City on January 18, 1968. Because it was never returned to the dealer for an intake recall/replacement, the car still retains its rare original cast-iron intake manifold. For 1968, Shelby GT350 and GT500 production moved to the A.O. Smith facility in Ionia, Michigan, where Mustang convertibles and fastbacks received updated fiberglass body panels and other components to set them apart from regular Mustangs. Most notably, the front fascia got a different look with larger grille opening, fog lamps and a hood with a pair of forward-placed scoops. The new rear-end treatment incorporated a duck-tail spoiler and a unique rear panel with 1965 Thunderbird sequential tail lights. With one refresh in factory code-M Wimbledon White paint with Guardsmen Blue side and over-the-top Lemans stripes, this GT350 fastback is equipped with its original black interior including the carpet, headliner, seat covers, steering wheel, Shelby-exclusive console with Cobra-embossed lid and original Stewart Warner gauges, and date-correct seat belts with reels. Powered by a date-code-correct J-code 302 CI 4-barrel V-8, the Shelby is also optioned with automatic transmission, power steering, power front disc brakes, tilt steering column, tinted glass and rare factory air conditioning. The aluminum 10-spoke Shelby wheels are wrapped in the correct E70x15 Goodyear Polyglas Speedway tires. The GT350 retains its original sheet metal, including the floor pans and the early production square quarter-panel marker lights, along with the factory fiberglass hood and decklid. The correct factory markings are still intact, as is the original assembly line buck tag. The Shelby comes with an Elite Marti Report and extensive maintenance and service records.
