Nightmist Blue GT500 with Parchment interior would win out over a Highland Green '68 GT Fastback in my book.

In this make believe what-if, let's talk about both cars being of equal value.  Not bazillion dollar cars.   Something reasonable. 

Plus, these would be cars that we would have and drive and own forever.  So value is not very important.

The one I'd prefer would depend on the condition of each car.

Whichever car is the most trashed, I'd opt for the other.

But, if both are in the same condition, I'd prefer Morrison's because it's a Shelby and thus has a 428 instead of the relatively-speaking boat anchor 390.

Current:
2006 FGT. Tungsten. Whipple, HRE 20s, Ohlin coil-overs, 3.90 gears. 210.7 mph.

Kirkham Cobra. 482-inch aluminum side-oiler. Tremec 5-spd.

Formerly:
1968 GT500KR #2575 (1982-2022)
1970 Ranchero GT 429
1969 LTD Country Squire 429
1963 T-Bird Sport Roadster
1957 T-Bird E-model 3-spd stick

I'd take the Morrison G.T. 500.
"Low she sits on five spoke wheels
Small block eight so live she feels
There she's parked beside the curb
Engine revving to disturb
She's the princess from his past
Red paint gold stripes damned she's fast"
