Pretty interesting find.

While the 69-70 Mustang fastback is one of my favorite looking cars, I really don't care for the look of the 69-70 Shelby's. The extra length just does not do it for me.

...Pretty neat Rhonda! 'Never knew there was such an animal. I like the old Lockheed Ventura in the picture too :)

The 69-70 Shelby's with 428s were appealing to me, but like David, I never considered them in the same bracket as the 65-68s. They were more of a Ford option than a true "Carroll" product by then. Is that true??

I have always considered the 69/70's to be my favorite because of the nose, followed by the '68. '67 was the last year that Carrol actually built them though. After that Ford built them and "luxery'd them up".

It's pretty cool that Carroll Shelby signed the Marti report. This car has Lucas foglights and the same tail lights as the 68 CS and Shelby.

I've always liked the 69's. I bought (new) a '69 Grande', loaded. A true 'luxury' Mustang. Wish I had it today.
