At first, it only produced six sets. I don't think most people will see them on the street because these cars are basically hidden in the garage by collectors. In the photo, is this a 1970 Ford mustang? GT？ 500? It's written by Shelby. It's a convertible version.
Between 1969 and 1970, Ford only produced 335 GT500 convertibles, and only 6 cars used "Grabber? Yellow paint.
There is another interesting thing about this car. These six cars were originally 1969 models, but they were not sold because of sales volume and other reasons, so Ford internally gave them a new (VIN) vehicle identification number, and then these cars were sold as new models of 1970.
Compared with 1969, 1970 has obvious changes in appearance. There is a spoiler and two decorative strips on the black hood directly under the front of the car. Of course, there are other changes related to emissions, such as improving the carburetor.
Up to now, we have seen a lot of Ford Mustang GT500 modified by Shelby, but they only have coupe version, not convertible version. This car is a convertible, which collectors want.
The yellow body is equipped with a white movable soft top and a glass rear window, which was originally ordered directly from the factory. However, the seller warned that the rearview mirror adjustment switch in the driver's seat of this car is broken, but I think this problem should be easily repaired.
Shelby modified it under the hood? 428? Cobra? Jeter? V8 engine, with a maximum horsepower of 355 HP, the power is transmitted to the rear wheels through a three-speed Cruise-O-Matic automatic gearbox.
In the car, most of the parts you can see are wrapped in black leather, as always, American style. The three-spoke steering wheel has the familiar Shelby“Cobra "logo, followed by the speedometer at the bottom of 140 miles (about 225 km/h). The multimedia system is very simple. After all, it's almost 50 years old, and the main engine is Clarion's main engine and.
This car has a five-digit mileage of 93,000 miles (about 1.5 million kilometers), but the total mileage is still unknown.
The sale was accompanied by many supporting documents, including the invoice of the dealer at that time. In the invoice, we can see that the sales price of this car is $5425.29, and the order form of the factory at that time and the owner's manual are also provided with the car.
Up to now, the highest bid for this car in the internet auction is $62,500, but there are still a few days before the auction ends.
Such a rare and classic Ford Mustang convertible represents that period of history and the days when we lived, an American muscle car at that time. I believe that it will be welcomed home by rich car collectors in a few days and become the new favorite in garage collection.
