With its sights set on those who aren’t satisfied with Ford’s retro-modern take of the original pony car yet still want all the advantages that come with a new car, Missouri-based Retrobuilt is expanding its range of 1969 Shelby Mustangs with the addition of a convertible model.
As with Retrobuilt’s existing 1969 Shelby GT 500CS Fastback and Mustang GT Fastback models, the 1969 Shelby GT500CS Convertible can be based on any open-top, fifth-generation Ford Mustang (S-197) built from 2005 and onwards.
The conversion package replaces all body panels sans the doors with fiberglass parts, and adds new headlamps and taillights, chrome trim, vinyl striping and a Shelby wheel and tire combo to mimic the looks of the original 1969 model.
Available options include a racing package that bundles a supercharger boosting the V8 model’s output up to 500hp, Baer performance brakes, a lowered sports suspension and other parts.
For pricing information, you will have to contact Retrobuilt directly.
