1968 SHELBY?

[MACHOTA102]

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF BALDWIN-MOTION MADE A 1968 GT500 SHELBY MUSTANG? I KNOW SOMEONE SELLING ONE , I NEVER HEARD OF ONE DOES ANYONE KNOW?

I have a Hot Cars article where they did a '69'-70 Mustang. Can't remember if it was a Shelby or not.

while I am not the know all of Shelby's, I am well versed in them. Also an active Owner and Member Of S.A.A.C. and I cannot rule out that Motion may have toyed with one, but I am willing to bet that it was an independent project if it happened at all. Shelby was on his way out in 1968, He had closed the Doors on Shelby American and FORD was producing the 1968 Shelby themselves using A.O. Smith industries in Livonia Michigan to complete the transformation. But hey, it was the 60's! I personally have never read any publication or even heard rumor of such an animal.

Correct me if im wrong, but is there only 1 REAL shelby mustang super snake in exsistance?. If so, who built it?, could that be built by motion?. I believe it was a 67

1967--Shelby American built the Super Snake---
Anyone could have gone to M/P to have work done to whatever level they wanted----

Charley owns the one an only. He raced it at SCR8, an awesome piece of muscle car history. Built at Shelby America and modified by the shelby team. Charley are you there??

Correction...he kind of soft shoed it down the track...

[Mr. T]

Thought he raced the Hertz rental.

Wow!!!--I knew Charley had a Shelby--Didn't realize it was The Super Stang....One fortunate Cowboy..

You are correct That there is only ONE SUPER SNAKE! SHELBY Built it and Motion had nothing to do with it. (Except gain inspiration possibly) and The Current "Keeper" of the Super Snake is a Forum member/moderator! maybe he could chime in some??
