100% Private Owner Consignment·Call 847-838-3749 or Email [email protected] 1968 shelby GT500KR Convertible, Black over Black, Concours Triple Crown Winner 1968 Shelby GT500KR #02524? is the American Pharoah of the automotive world. This thoroughbred is finished in stunning Raven Black over Black, one of only 6% of total KR Convertible production or 33 cars. Add to that the quality of her restoration, not just concours gold winning, but one of only a handful that have earned the Shelby Concours Triple Crown: • 2012 Mustang Club of America, Providence, Rhode Island National Show, Concours Trailered Gold Award • 2012 Shelby American Automobile Club, Watkins Glen, New York, Concours Gold-Div 2 • 2012 Team Shelby, Tulsa, Oklahoma, Heritage Gold Award - Concours Heritage Class The quality of her condidition compliments her pedigree." # 2524 is one of the finest examples of a restored Shelby anywhere. You will be hard pressed to find a more historically accurate car anywhere. If you ever wanted to experience what a new 1968 Shelby was like, this is a rare opportunity to own the very best. That's not my opinion, but rather the opinion of the most knowledgeable Shelby people in the world." -Peter Disher, aka the Coralsnake and SAAC Concours Judge In 2012, 2524 underwent a full rotisserie restoration by Tim Lea, one of the most well regarded restorers within the Shelby American Automobile Club (SAAC) community. The 428 Cobra Jet big-block V-8 engine, dated 8B5 (or February 5, 1968) a few months before the build date of the car, and VIN stamped C-6 automatic transmission were completely rebuilt to original factory specifications. She has been driven approximately 3,100 miles since 2012, mostly to local shows and events in the Los Angeles area. In addition, #2524 was featured in a recent Ford family wedding. Retired from competition, occasional driving does results in slight patina, primarily within the engine bay and undercarriage. Minor wear to plated and bare metal components is to be expected and is regularly detailed to maintain the factory finish. She is a 1968 Shelby GT500KR, a concours Triple Crown winning "King of the Road."Rare - one of 518 GT500KR's produced and only one of a dozen to win the Concours Triple Crown.Desirable - Raven Black over Black Décor interior, offset by a white power convertible top and white rocker panel stripes. She certainly stirs the soul.Excellence - either in restoration detail or quality of preservation.Provenance - a vehicle's history and pedigree within the enthusiast community. A car possessing any three of these traits would be a solid addition to a private collection, having all four makes this Shelby a must have for any serious collector.Call 847-838-3749 or Email [email protected] for more information! Exterior Description Raven Black body works shines like an obsidian mirror. All body gaps and body panel alignment are better than the factory could do in 1968. All the fiberglass work is also original to the car. FIt and finish of the paint and body is superior to most any other example currently available on the market. You will notice that the car is photographed with both vintage Good Year polyglas tires and modern radials. The car can be fitted with one or the other at the buyer's option as a condition of sale. Interior Description The interior is in absolute factory OE condition. ?Restored to concours specifications, her interior trim looks and feels new. Hard to find wear items such as the steering wheel and shifter handle are likewise restored to showroom condition. She was factory ordered new with White Power Convertible Top with Glass Blacklight, GT Equipment Group, Visibility Group, Power Steering, Power Front Disc Brakes, Tilt-away Steering Column, AM Radio, Interior Decor Group, Tachometer and Trip Odometer. Every acccessory works. Engine Bay Description Engine bay also presents as factory equipped. She is driven occassionally, so it is natural to see a mild patina soften the plated and bare metal finishes. During a recent concours detailing, all these surfaces were cleaned and any factory labels that displayed wear, such as the DR sticker on the shock tower, were replaced with fresh ones. When you are looking for a fine collectible, it isn't just how recent the restoration it is, it is how quality of the work done and how well maintained the vehicle is once it is completed. This one offers the best in workmanship and OE detail, with an owner who knows how to keep it in near showroom condition. Chassis Description Retired from "Concours Trailer Queen" competition, she been driven approximately 3,100 miles since 2012, mostly to local shows and events in the Los Angeles area. Occasional driving does result in minor wear and tear, primarily within the engine bay and undercarriage as you might expect. But meticulous detailing after each outing and a deep detail at the end driving season has allowed this Shelby KR to enjoy the exhilaration of the open road, while maintaining her concours pedigree. The current owner has just recently performed a concours detail, cleaning all plated and bare metal parts to preserve their factory finish.
