I am amused at the one of one deal also! You can almost make any car 1 of 1 with options, colors! BUT THIS IS A LEGITIMATE ONE OFF! THE ONLY KR CONVERTIBLE IN THIS COLOR EVER PRODUCED! This color was not even an option in 68! It was Carroll Shelbys X wifes car hence the options and color. So yes it is the only one ever produced in Royal Maroon Metallic from the factory. Very special rare car!

517 KR Converts produced - the 318 number was what we thought in the 80's, before another box of production records was found. Not picking nits, just trying to get that decades old 318 number to finally die http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Am I loosing my mind or was the original "Buy It Now" on this car $400,000? I just clicked the Ebay link to see the pics of the car and the "Buy It Now" was $235,000.

It really is one amazing car....
