One of our viewers found this advertisement for a local dealer limited edition Mustang called the Selig Swinger. Knippel Selig is a dealer from Milwaukee who in 1968 put together a dealer optioned and probably dealer installed special which included color keyed vinyl roof, five D-70 4 ply nylon wide oval whitewall tires, "swinging" C side stripes, louvered hood with integrated turn signals, and steel-styled wheel covers. TheCoralSnake.com has a good write-up on Selig Ford.

Here is the full ad from Knippel-Selig Ford from the May 22nd, 1968 edition of The Milwaukee Journal featuring the Selig Swinger Mustang.
The hood says it all, this is a Lime Green 1968 Shelby GT500 convertible, beautifully restored with hood pins, fog lamps, metal rocker trim, Shelby 10 spoke wheels, and an S-code 427ci 4-barrel V8 engine.

The roll bar with two small rectangular rings rumored to be surf board tie downs since the only 1967 GT500 convertible used similar ones to tie down its color matched surf board.

Under this black paint is Caribbean Coral paint. It's a 'Rainbow of Colors' Special edition 1968 Mustang. It's owned by Brandon Salisbury. Brandon is 16 and is planning to restore the car with his Father. The Marti report states that it is a Special Paint Coral, Ford #WT9012. It was built in San Jose (8R) on 3/8/68 and ordered through the Salt Lake City DSO (73) with special order# 3061. It was sold through Gooding Ford in Gooding, Idaho. This paint was also offered on the 'Color of the Month' special edition Mustangs. This Coral Mustang was built about a month too early to be considered a 'Color of the Month' special edition. The Coral paint was an April color. The special order number on this Mustang is close to 3059 which we know is part of the 'Rainbow of Colors' promotion. We believe most of the 'Color of the Month' cars came from the Metuchen New Jersey factory, and we have never found an advertisement for the 'Color of the Month' promotion from the Salt Lake City area.
Along the door jamb, you can see the Caribbean Coral paint.
