So, may it have been built with just the fiberglass parts, script and stripes? The Marti says nothing about California Special. Lists it as a GT.
Not sure if it being a prototype can ever be proven. Probably would have been by now. Unless there is some Dearborn worker who remembers building a few prototypes.

Again, if it was pulled from the line to be converted to a GT/CS it would not show on the Marti report. The car was already built as a regular production 1968 Mustang coupe. That is what the Marti would say.
An inspection by a knowledgeable person could identify some of the GT/CS parts and assembly. Witness lines on the scoops. Underside of the trunk lid. Wiring harness to the taillights. And so on.
