At this year's Barrett-Jackson collector car auction Ford & Shelby are teaming up to auction the already rare Shelby GT500KR #0001 off for charity. To make the one-of-one Ebony black GT500KR even more rare it will feature the same full glass roof that is being offered as an option on the 2009 Mustang V6 & GT models. The GT500KR also features racing stripes over the glass roof which had to be etched directly on the glass. It's definately a great marketing ploy along with good business sense to include the glass roof into the Shelby GT500KR Mustang with all the viewers on Speed watching. The exposure at Barrett-Jackson and on the Speed channel can only help slumping sales of the Mustang. All proceeds from the auction will go to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.

After the jump I have included photos and the press release.

    I still think this car looks great, I look forward to Ford Mustang 2010, but I think the 05 model will still look better.
