I believe the 1968 GT-500 cars were made by Ford and not Shelby as he had left and gone to Africa. He sold Ford the right to build the cars and use his name, but I think 1967 was the last year that Shelby actually built the Mustangs. However, no matter what the number or who built them, if they ordered that many of the fiberglass components, then they should pay for them. It seems there are always lawsuits concerning Shelby one way or another the past few years. I wonder if it is his lawyers and other top people that are causing all of this as I think he is to old and sick to be instigating everything that is going on. And for what they charge for one of these new KRs they should be able to pay for the parts.
