A rebody? I don't think so...first of all with all due respect, its irresponsible to throw that out when any serial number is mentioned unless you have first hand knowledge of dirty deeds.

The holes you are describing are for the Mustang quarter panel scoop ornament and are common on all 1968 Shelbys.
I would be much more concerned if you didn't have them.

The ornament was left off and the scoop replaced it. You should have black caulk on the inside of the quarter to prevent water from entering the car.

Green arrows for scoop holes, red arrows (not used) but present on original quarter panels

I don't know the history, but the Registry shows some warranty work, so make sure you contact Mr Liska, the registrar. He can give you copies of the documents.
