My uncle had a 1968 red GT500 convertible in the 1980's. We had a '67 mustang and I thought it looked familiar, but I was about 12 years old and he kept calling it a Shelby. When he took me for a ride in it I saw "Custom" on the glove box, and I said "Hey, this is a mustang!". That's when I got the history lesson on Carroll Shelby.
What a car that was. I'll never forget the sound it made.
