1968 Ford Mustang Shelby GT350 Original Hertz Rent A Racer Model

This restored 1968 GT350 was originally purchased by the Hertz Corporation and used as a rental. Like all Hertz's in 1968. this is an automatic with air conditioning. This GT350 runs and drives great and is ready to be enjoyed. 72. 00 original miles on this car. READ THIS: This car was restored to enjoy as a fun driver.
