Note: this is actually a 1967 Dual Quad Shelby as pointed out by a site visitor, I will get this fixed soon. This Medium Blue 1968 Mustang Shelby GT500 fastback was at the 2010 MCA Grand Nationals held in Bellevue, Washington. It doesn't have over the top stripes but it does have one of the 4V V8 engines.

Early 1968 Shelby GT500's came with the 360ci 4V V8, later the 428ci 4V V8, although you could optionally get the 427ci 4V V8. Not sure which this is.

Acapulco Blue 1970 Mustang Shelby GT-500 fastback with white stripes and a black interior. This one has the big 428ci 335hp Cobra Jet V8 engine connected to a 4-speed manual transmission. Acapulco Blue was actually 1969 color, not a 1970 color. But... All 1970 Shelbys are really re-serialized 1969 Shelbys that where left over at the Shelby factory.
