    For the guys on here from NZ -

    I know this is a long-shot, but some years ago (back in the '80s !) a couple from NZ came over to England and spent some time with me (David) and a friend (Paul - who had a '69 Boss 429 at the time) and searched around the UK to find a Shelby to take back to NZ.

    They ended up with a green '68 GT500KR which they exported to NZ. :guns:

    I don't recall their names, but it would be great to catch up with them again if they are still in the game. I recall that he was a marine biologist if that's any help... :unsure:

    David, i don't recall ever seeing a GT500KR at any of the mustang shows so im not sure if it's still around, but i'll put your inquiry on our national website and see what you get. Just pm me your email address so i can add that and people can then contact you direct.
    cheers.
