1969 Shelby GT500 Convertible For Sale - Previously Restored By Legendary Motorcar, Numbers-Matching LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1969 Shelby GT500 Convertible The 1969 Shelby GT500 stands as one of the most iconic and visually aggressive expressions of the golden era of American muscle, representing the final chapter of Carroll Shelby’s direct influence on the Mustang platform. By 1969, the GT500 had evolved into a refined yet brutally capable grand touring machine—longer, wider, and more imposing than its predecessors, while still delivering the raw big-block performance enthusiasts demanded. With its extended fiberglass front end, functional scoops, and unmistakable presence, the 1969 model year remains one of the most sought-after Shelby Mustangs ever produced. This particular example is an outstanding, investment-grade GT500, finished in its factory-correct and highly desirable Candyapple Red over Black knit vinyl hi-back bucket seat interior. Previously restored by Legendary Motorcar, the car exhibits a high level of fit, finish, and attention to detail throughout. The body presents beautifully with excellent panel alignment and deep, rich paintwork, while the undercarriage has been meticulously detailed making this example equally suited for concours display or high-level collection use. At the heart of this Shelby lies its numbers-matching 428 cubic inch Cobra Jet V-8 engine—one of Ford’s most legendary powerplants. Known for its immense torque and underrated horsepower figures, the Cobra Jet delivers effortless acceleration and commanding road presence. Paired to a robust C6 automatic transmission and a 3.50 Traction-Lok rear end, this drivetrain combination offers both strong straight-line performance and comfortable highway cruising—perfectly in line with Shelby’s grand touring philosophy. The car is further equipped with power steering and power front disc brakes, providing a confident and enjoyable driving experience that belies its muscle car roots. Visually, the GT500 is defined by its Shelby-specific fiberglass components, including the signature hood with functional scoops and hood pins, along with its aggressive stance and period-correct detailing. Inside, the Black knit vinyl interior is both purposeful and comfortable, featuring hi-back bucket seats and the distinctive styling cues unique to the 1969 Shelby lineup. Adding to its provenance, this GT500 was part of the renowned Cliff Earnest Collection for an impressive 37 years—an ownership history that speaks volumes about the car’s quality and desirability. It is fully documented and listed in the Shelby Registry, further solidifying its authenticity and historical importance. Built on February 7th, 1969, this car retains an exceptional array of documentation, including its Ford build sheet, Shelby Automotive Company order sheet to Minar Ford, and original Shelby Automotive Company invoice to Minar Ford. It is also accompanied by a Marti Report, providing further verification of its factory specifications and history. Combining striking factory colors, a numbers-matching drivetrain, long-term collector ownership, and extensive original documentation, this 1969 Shelby GT500 represents a rare opportunity to acquire a truly significant example of Shelby American performance. Whether displayed among the finest collections or enjoyed on the open road, it stands as a powerful reminder of an era when performance, style, and heritage came together in their purest form. -
