Well,

Red Orange Koni shocks are on my car???  Not correct??

Konis would be aftermarket on a 69 Shelby

Originally would have had white or blue (depending on when the car was built and the suspension) adjustable Gabriels like the years before your car's . With big Shelby decals on each

I think you have a June build date so white adjustable Autolite would be correct
1969 (04/07/69) GT350 owned since 1970. Only owner since Hertz.

Don't believe anyone has reproduced the 69 version in the past - at least don't recall any of them. Of course they would just have the markings - not really operate (adjustable) like originals

Think they did the 67 and or the 68. Were not cheap  but considering the low number of possible sales they would need to recover their investment quickly
