Let's start with important items. This is a one owner car. We have the ORIGINAL title and the ORIGINAL bill of sale, along with factory brochures and owner's manual! As we understand, this well preserved example has not been restored and is in very good condition. The miles showing, 78,026, are believed to be accurate.


R&H Motorcar Group is proud to offer this exciting example, a 1968 Shelby Cobra GT 350. Ford Motor Company said of this car, “Carroll Shelby has worked a bit of racing car magic on the Ford Mustang.” Further calling it “a true road performer that rivals Europe's finest limited-production cars but for thousands of dollars less.”


As you might imagine, a car of this account is a little less than showroom condition. The paint shows a slight patina of aging gracefully. The top is free of any tears or significant wear. The 10-spoke wheels are in very respectable condition. The chrome mirrors nicely while the glass and lenses are crisp and clear. Panels and gaps are looking spot on.


Under the famous hood you'll find a 302 ci V-8. The power plant puts out 250 horses with the help of hydraulic valve lifters, a high volume intake, and 4 bbl carburetor.


Inside the cabin you'll find a tilt away steering wheel that functions perfectly. Have a look at the photos. You'll notice that the interior is in very good condition. The inside door panels, dash, and seating are free of any major defects. Even the AM radio is ready to play some of your favorite tunes.


At the Motor Car Group, we're enthusiasts first. We want you to enjoy your new car from the minute it's delivered and the trailer door drops. Before a car leaves our shop, it's gone through comprehensively, both visually and mechanically. We do more than just kick the tires, though: We road test (if the weather permits us here in Cleveland!) and clean it inside and out.


We're proud of our inventory and do our best in describing each example as accurately as possible. As with all classic cars, it can be difficult to know the true miles and history. Further, what one person sees is a gem, another person might not. So before making an investment, we encourage you to hire the services of a private inspector for a third party opinion. After all, we want you to be happy with your car for years to come!


No matter where you'd like your car shipped to, let us make the arrangements. We've ship cars all over the world. Delivering your new ride in enclosed carrier is nothing new for us. We'd be honored to arrange all the logistics for you! Every car we sell, from Sunday drivers through the rarest exotics, is meant to be driven-get out there!


If you have any questions before, during or after the sale, do not hesitate to contact us. It's what we're here for! Call us at (440) 914-0000, write us at sales@motorcargroup.com or stop by and see the new shop at 6441 Davis Industrial Parkway, Solon OH 44139. We're 26 miles from Cleveland Hopkins Airport and we can pick you up when you come to inspect or purchase your car.


We welcome any prospective buyers, their buyer's agents or inspectors from Monday through Friday during business hours, as well as evenings and weekends by appointment. We're car people who love what we do, and you'll feel it from the first time you contact us. Give the R&H crew the opportunity to serve you: Our passion and attention to detail set us apart!
