FRANKLIN MINT 1968 SHELBY GT-500 SIGNATURE EDITION
I just purchased a Franklin Mint 68 Shelby GT-500 Mustang Signature Edition on E-bay. It arrived today and I am skeptical that this is a true signature edition car. The plate on the chassis says Limited Edition and so does the hang tag. COA has no mention of being a signature edition either. It does say it is 2785 of 3500. Can you tell me if this is a true signature car? Thanks for your help.
Sam, go to the car list and reviews tab and select franklin mint, then....
search on 1968 Shelby in 1:24 scale.... You will see 2 signed editions, 1 green and 1 red. Compare them to what you have...... The green one is a run of 3500....
FRANKLIN MINT 1968 SHELBY GT-500 SIGNATURE EDITION
Jerry,
Thanks for the reply. The box has correct number and based on the description it does seem to be correct car. I also checked on e-bay And there are 3 other green 68's with the same paperwork and box. Thanks again.
Sam
I've never seen a red signed edition
