I have a 68 gt 500 #736, I have owned in since 1978.
The car has been through tough times, and when we finished it in June of 2005 we made a few shows and became a fan favorite.
She went under approximately 8 feet of water in Katrina.
The car was stripped and now dipped, e-coated and now starting the painting and reassembly. I cannot wait to have her back on the streets again.My photos are under gt 500 736 in the photo section.

 

#2532, I bought it in March of 2006 and took Delivery Saturday 6/30/07 and have given about 30 neighbors rides in it already.

All original car, 1 of 10 AC/Auto Wimbleton White Gt500's made. Just had the engine rebuilt, engine compartment and under body repainted/conditioned.

Great car to cruise in on July 4th.

69 GT500 #660. Black Jade, build date 1/31/69, 3.50:1 axle, C6.
I'm the third owner, bought it in 1982.
Unrestored and mostly original. Repainted by second owner.
I'm recently retired and am beginning a full restoration.

 

Congrats on the retirement and good luck with the recreation.
We had a ton of fun driving to the cruise nights when we finished it, heck the wife and kids really got into it also.
Nothing like crusing in a SHELBY.

 

NIce!!! Mine, seen above, was built feb. 10th. Same color originally, same options I believe as well.

What color interior is yours? Anymore pics? I'm quite interested to see what mine used to look like

 

Added some pictures. Paint job is by previous owner; can of paint included in purchase shows correct Ditzler number (2037 I think) and "Black Jade". I've never seen an original Black Jade paint job, but on my car it looks a lot like the Olive Drab I saw a lot of in the Army. Interior is original, but some seat seams are coming loose.
