Overview about this 1968 Shelby Mustang GT500KR

KR stands for King of the Road, and the 1968 GT500KR was Shelby's answer to a horsepower race it was in danger of losing: Ford's 428 Cobra Jet V8 in place of the 428 Police Interceptor, rated at a deliberately conservative 335 hp when the real figure was well above it. It arrived mid-season and ran to roughly 1,500 cars across fastback and convertible bodies, which makes it the rarest of the 1968 Shelby Mustangs.

This car is white over a tan interior, with the four-speed manual gearbox, and it had covered 72,139 miles, by a wide margin the highest reading in this collection and the sign of a car that has been used as it was built to be.

TSG Autohaus published no description, option list or history for it beyond those details, so nothing further is stated here. Anything else would be invention.

This 1968 Shelby Mustang GT500KR shows 116,096 km. It is equipped with a 4-Speed Manual transmission. The car is finished in White with a Tan interior.

The price is on request. The car is located in Costa Mesa, United States.

FAQ

This Shelby Mustang GT500KR in the European market

How this car sits against the other Shelby Mustang GT500KR advertised in Europe on 2026, and what to settle before a cross-border purchase.

Can this Shelby be bought in the United States and registered elsewhere in Europe?

The car is located in Costa Mesa, United States. The dealer has not stated whether the price is quoted gross, net of VAT for export, or under the margin scheme. Cross-border purchase is normal for this kind of car, but the documentation, the certificate of conformity, transport and the registration rules of the destination country all have to be settled with the selling dealer first.

Who is selling this Shelby Mustang GT500KR, and how does a purchase work?

TSG Autohaus, a professional dealer in Costa Mesa, United States. LUSSO lists the car and passes enquiries to that dealer; the inspection, the negotiation, the invoice and the transfer of ownership all take place directly between the buyer and the dealer. LUSSO does not hold stock, take deposits or act as an intermediary in payment.

Can this Shelby Mustang GT500KR be inspected before purchase?

The car is at Costa Mesa, United States, and an inspection is arranged with the selling dealer. Buyers based in another country commonly appoint an independent inspector or a marque specialist rather than travel. Ask the dealer for the service record, the number of previous owners and any accident history: LUSSO does not publish these and cannot confirm them.

Is this Shelby Mustang GT500KR still available?

LUSSO republishes what the selling dealer advertises, and a car in demand is sometimes reserved or sold before the dealer updates its own site. Confirm current availability with TSG Autohaus before travelling or committing funds. An enquiry sent from this page reaches that dealer directly.

What is needed to register this car if it does not stay in the United States?

A cross-border registration normally requires the vehicle registration document, the certificate of conformity or an equivalent type-approval record, the purchase invoice showing the VAT treatment, and proof that any tax due in the destination country has been settled. Temporary export plates and transport insurance are arranged either by the dealer or by the buyer. Requirements differ by country and should be confirmed with the selling dealer before payment.
