1968 Ford Shelby GT350 Convertible

The 1968 Shelby GT350 Convertible represents a unique moment in Shelby American history, blending Carroll Shelby’s high-performance legacy with increased comfort and broader appeal. As one of the few years the GT350 was offered in convertible form, it stands apart from earlier, more competition-focused models by delivering a refined yet still potent driving experience.

Powered by a 302 CI V-8, the GT350 offered strong performance while incorporating luxury-oriented features such as power steering, power brakes and upgraded interiors. With its distinctive styling—including fiberglass body components, functional scoops and signature striping—the 1968 GT350 convertible captures the evolution of the Shelby Mustang into a more versatile grand touring machine, while remaining highly collectible due to its limited production and iconic pedigree.

Finished in its original and highly attractive factory Sunlit Gold exterior, this example is complemented by a black décor bucket seat interior, offering as delivered a striking and period-correct color combination that underscores the car’s authenticity and visual appeal. Documented by its Marti Report, this GT350 is exceptionally well optioned. Factory equipment includes a white power convertible top with glass backlite, extra cooling package, visibility group, wheel lip moldings, power steering, power front disc brakes, tilt-away steering column, AM radio, interior décor group, heavy-duty battery, tachometer and trip odometer—making it a highly usable and luxurious performance car for its era.

This example has been the recipient of a comprehensive rotisserie restoration by Legendary Motorcar Company, executed to the highest standards with a focus on authenticity and detail. Every component has been carefully restored or refinished, resulting in a presentation that reflects both concours-level quality and factory-correct accuracy. Further enhancing its provenance, the car is documented in the Shelby Registry, confirming its authenticity.
