1969 Shelby GT500 convertible
Sold for: $675,000

Since it was built, this car has been the sole property of Caroll Shelby himself. This was the only Shelby Mustang that Shelby still owned since it was new.

A five-year restoration project on this car was finished just four months before the Barrett-Jackson auction.
