About the Shelby GT500 KR WT… “In 1968 six special paint colors appeared on Shelbys. They were known by their special “WT” identification code number. The total production number of these special “WT” paint cars was just 159 across all six paint variations. These cars were sold as part of Ford’s “Summer Sales Promotion”. The “WT” cars were offered on both the GT500KR and GT350 models and were only available with black or saddle interiors. The rarity of these cars is increased because they could not be ordered from Shelby. To get your hands on one of these cars, your Shelby dealer had to track down the “WT” car you were after throughout the Shelby dealer network.”

Is this the finished model as it is slightly different from the box pic and doesn’t have the chrome or white strip under the white stripe?
That usually breaks off anyway so I hope this version is the finished version
No, painted the pre-production model.
