1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT 500KR - The Way It Was

Floyd Huxford's 1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT 500KR is original right down to its hubcaps (http://www.mustangmonthly.com/featuredvehicles/mump_1209_1968_ford_mustang_gt_500kr/)It's of little surprise that years after production many a musclecar has been fitted with optional equipment that didn't come on the car when built. Truth is, many original buyers were stretched pretty thin even with a base level machine, so a multitude of '60s road warriors ended up being sparsely equipped. Of course, '68 Shelbys were a bit of a different animal with a list of standard equipment that was deluxe by any definition. Floyd Huxford's G.T. 500KR convertible is a prime example of the breed, but there remains one upgrade temptation that he and virtually every '68 Shelby owner considers at one time or another--the wheels.
