A purple '67 Shelby delivered from the Factory - Ford via Shelby??

I'm aware of one '67 Shelby special order Vintage Burgundy. (There was also a Special order Yellow - the only two special order '67's both existing colors available on '67 Ford Mustangs but not Shelby's)  There were only 10 "Standard" '67 Shelby exterior colors through-out the '67 production run none were "purple". There were 23 Bronze (not gold) cars early in the production run but that color was pulled and only a few made. Bret (Cape Cod Mustangs that lists Shelby's here) has had 3 (?) of the Bronze cars, he may still have one.

Can you post the TikToc link or provide the Shelby Car VIN?

 I found the Youtube Video of it..  It is the George Conrad Collection.  Here is a YouTube Link.

OK, George Conrad collection.  Have been to his place a couple times, Yes he means Bronze on the '67 not Gold and he also, like many, refers to the '67 upper scoop lights as "side marker" lights another mis-spoken comment.

I did not hear him say anything about "purple", maybe that's in part II?

He calls his Purple "Thunderbird Gray" and says that their are about a Dozen Shelby's that color.

Oh, OK I missed him saying Purple when he was at that car and they didn't show it up close.  That was a buddy's car that George bought after he passed.

It's one of the 29 gray '67 Shelby's they made (all were GG350's), it's not a Mustang color but a Lincoln color that was also used on Thunderbirds - Huntington Gray.  It has a lot of colors in it (blue & red/magenta) and at certain angles and lighting they have a very purple cast to them.  As you walk around it the color changes, you either seem to love it or not.

Here is a photo of another Gray '67 from back when the car was new...

Here are the pictures of 1128 that I took in 1981, the first two taken in Deer Lodge Montana. The one that shows it with Cragars was taken after it moved to Missoula after being sold for $3800. That's the pic that shows the strange little square taillights that were added at some point.
