That's how we felt when we had a chance to drive a low-mileage '68 G.T. 500KR convertible (http://www.mustangmonthly.com/featuredvehicles/mump_1201_1968_gt_500kr_convertible_king_of_the_ro ad/index.html)It's become a tradition. Every year, right before I head off to the Mid America Ford and Team Shelby Nationals in Oklahoma, event founder and organizer Jim Wicks calls to offer me a chance to drive a low-mileage Mustang musclecar. Two years ago, it was Jim's own 21,000-mile Boss 429 survivor, followed by last year's 51,000-mile '65 Shelby G.T. 350, also a survivor from Wicks' stable. This year when I arrived at the Southern Hills Marriott, there was an Acapulco Blue '68 G.T. 500KR convertible waiting on me. The odometer read just 10,410 miles.
