In 1968, a limited edition Mustang called the GT/CS
‘California Special’ which was based on the Shelby Mustang GT was offered through
California’s Western Region Ford
Dealers. Due to its low production numbers and clean styling, the ‘California
Special’ Mustang was an instant hit and remains one of the most popular and
sought after Mustangs today.
