1968 Blue Shelby GT500KR<\/figcaption><\/figure>\nOne of the most iconic Shelbys of the muscle-car era is now live on Bring a Trailer!<\/p>\n
This spectacular 1968 Shelby GT500KR Convertible is finished in factory-correct Acapulco Blue over Black and equipped with the highly desirable 4-speed manual transmission, one of only 267 produced with this combination.<\/p>\n
The \u201cKR\u201d stood for King of the Road, and Ford gave it the muscle to back up the name. Under the hood is the legendary 428 Cobra Jet V8, creating one of the most memorable combinations of big-block power, open-air motoring, and unmistakable Shelby styling.<\/p>\n
This example has undergone a comprehensive, high-quality restoration and is loaded with desirable equipment, including a power convertible top, power front disc brakes, power steering, Tilt-Away steering column, AM\/FM radio, shoulder harnesses, and the GT, Interior D\u00e9cor, and Visibility Groups.<\/p>\n
A Marti Report accompanies the Shelby and documents its factory specifications and original equipment.<\/p>\n
For the serious Shelby collector, opportunities like this don\u2019t come along very often, and now the next owner will be decided on Bring a Trailer.<\/p>\n
The King of the Road is on BaT. Will it be heading to your garage next?<\/p>\n

1967 Corvette L89 Coupe \u2022 Sunfire Yellow \u2022 427\/435hp \u2022 4-Speed<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/p>\n
When people talk about the rarest big-block Corvettes, the legendary L88 usually gets all the attention. But in 1967, Chevrolet built just 16 Corvettes with the L89 option, four fewer than the 20 L88s produced that year.<\/p>\n
And this is one of them.<\/p>\n
Finished in striking Sunfire Yellow over a White interior, this \u201967 Coupe features the L89 427\/435hp big-block with its special aluminum cylinder heads, backed by a 4-speed manual transmission.<\/p>\n
Meticulously frame-off restored, it retains a partial Tank Sticker and has earned one of the highest honors in the Corvette world, the NCRS Zora Arkus-Duntov Award of Excellence.<\/p>\n
16 built. 427 cubic inches. 435 horsepower. One very special Corvette.<\/p>\n
