It's a shame we never see a Shelby de Mexico from '67 or '68 surviving today.  Does anyone know of any here in the US?  All we have are those grainy bw pictures.  ???
Thanks,

The problem with those cars is that they are just production Mexican Mustangs with various parts added.

There are no two exactly alike and they were ordered according to what the buyer wanted.

There are no Shelby VIN tags on them like the US versions so they are essentially regular Mustangs with stripes added here and there.

For that matter, there are probably some that are standard 6 cylinder with 3 speed transmissions?

The combination of parts on them is a perfect example of "cash talks, nobody walks" and there is no such thing as standard "Shelby equipment" on them...unfortunately.

Well, I wish this information was available earlier in the post.

Guess this explains why I can't find them in the registry.

Oh well, at minimum a fanciful fishing story.

You are probably right...
