1968 Ford Mustang The Legendary "Lime Bullet" Description

Our 1968 Ford Shelby GT500 is a true legend of Shelby history! As the legend goes, it was first purchased and owned for roughly 2 months. The first owner had to part ways, because of too many traffic infractions (22 roughly). The Dealer than purchased back the Shelby and then a drag racer by the name of Wes Johnson drove by and fell in love with the car and purchased her with the intent of drag racing. He then took out the original Police Interceptor and put in a dual quad 427ci side oiler. The car was known as the “Lime Bullet” in the circuit and then achieved the highest level by setting a World Record of 10.68 on a quarter mile. Maximum speed recorded was 110 Miles per hour. Now as if that is all not amazing enough, this car has only 34,500 original miles on it, has never been wrecked (all original sheet metal), and autographed on the dash by "Carroll Shelby"We have a lot of original documentation for this vehicle, including: Build Sheets, News Paper Articles labeling the car “The World’s Fastest Shelby!”, Photos, Complete documentation of the rotisserie restoration that took place in 2008, as well as the her being registered in the Shelby Almanac. The car shows great, runs great and sounds absolutely amazing! Call Alex Neues at 303-656-6534 with any questions or to schedule a visit.
