The serious buyer is encouraged to call 314-497-9470 as this vehicle will be for sale locally!

Being a hobbyist in the arena of collector cars I must admit that Mustangs have always retained a special place in my heart. That being said this pony car is unique and one of my favorites!

There is much that can be said about this vintage vehicle. It has a rich history!

It was delivered to a family who happened to be natives of Memphis, TN.

The husband took possession of this car around the fourth week of June / 1968. The production date when she left the assembly plant was April 4th 1968.

The purchase order included the ever so desirable Gulf Stream Aqua color which really seemed to win them over!

Actually the color of the car is one of the first things that people everywhere take notice of.

If you are tired of the traditional red, black and blue cars on the freeways today consider this an opportunity to take a walk on the wild side!

This vintage Ford is one of just a handful of

(F-Code) exterior color Mustangs released in 68!

The exact shade and hue is a little difficult to describe in nature. Nonetheless it is absolutely gorgeous! During the day the car comes across as being almost teal yet at night it seems to become ocean blue!

Original Gulf Stream cars are rare! These beautiful Ford cars are becoming highly sought after and coveted by many collectors today!

This 68 pony has only been painted once outside of its factory covering.

This task took place at Magg Automotive in Florissant Missouri! The shop is highly respected and well versed in the craft of custom body / paint work!

Before the paint was applied the shop stripped the body and properly prepped the panels. Afterwards the base / clear method was utilized to finish the assignment.

The exterior is extremely shiny and pleasing to the eye! The paint still displays certain trademarks of originality a bit of the patina associated with its factory covering.

It is void of the common mistakes that one would find created by a journeyman who is not experienced. The body is smooth to the touch and very presentable!

This is also an accident free vehicle. Each panel is straight and has great contour!

Almost all of stainless & chrome trim was fully restored as well. There was no stone left unturned in an all out effort to ensure the highest quality!

This fact is evident when considering the meticulous details that were attended to.

The factory chrome bumpers have been restored to like new condition. The door handles and window trim also were refurbished properly.

The front grill and associated moldings have been protected throughout the years and the cowl panel is damage free.

It is very easy to appreciate the intricate details regarding this Ford. The factory original directional hood looks magnificent and displays the correct gaps associated with manufacturing specifications “Nice from every angle”!

This Mustang came equipped with factory installed rocker panel moldings. They have been thoroughly cleaned and reinstalled with new hardware.

A set of raven black GT style side stripes wonderfully grace the lower rockers!

All of the surrounding exterior glass fits properly and there’s not a single piece damaged or out of place!

The exterior lights were tested along with every single / marker light (performing properly).

The everyday crowd, classic car enthusiast and almost anyone else who comes in contact with this pony seems to LOVE it!

SHOW OR GO!!!

Hopefully I have given proper insight in regards to the exterior description however, if you have further questions please feel free to ask (anytime)!

Please allow me to discuss what she has to offer inside!

Upon opening the door of this vehicle you will find a very inviting interior!

This Ford was actually manufactured with beautifully crafted optional black crinkle cut deluxe style buckets and interior upholstery!

The black interior provides the perfect contrast against the exterior!

The seat covers were replaced by Baden Upholstery in Baden Missouri. The shop is known for restoring high end special interest vehicles & classic cars.

Before they were replaced extra padding, foam and lumbar supporting cushion was added for extra comfort. The seats not only look great but also truly make every excursion a pleasurable one!

The seat backs were restored as well and look terrific!

There was a grand effort put forth to make sure that this Mustangs interior was respectable from every vantage point.

The carpet was replaced with new loop pile material which ensures its durability (looks great)!

The original dash pad was removed, guarded and resealed. All of the factory gauges are functioning as they should along with the an updated cd player with AM/FM radio and 6x9 speakers!

The wonderfully crafted black door panels are in excellent shape as well!

They are equipped with restored window cranks, door handles and other connecting hardware.

The inner quarter upholstery has been well taken care of and still looks amazing!

This Mustang has its original floor mounted shifter still securely fashioned inside as well.

Here’s something you don’t find everyday….. optional Ford manufactured shoulder belts!

You can consider them a sheer conversation piece at the local shows!

The glove box shuts properly and the sill plates are in terrific condition!

From front to rear this Mustangs interior plays its part well.

There’s also a show quality steering wheel for you to grip” when cruising in this time machine!

There is not a single crack or chip to be found anywhere on it.

This Mustang has a magnificent starlite black vinyl top that really brings the exterior to life!

The top is in excellent shape and is totally damage free!

The second owner truly made it a priority to clean and keep it protected through the years!

At the end of the day I am more than sure that the new potential owner will love this 68 stallion! It looks as good inside as it does out!

Now that I have given several reasons why you should love this Ford…… I will talk about why most Chevy guys hate it!

No Mustang can truly be considered a muscle car without having a factory V/8! (Factory A/C equipped car....compressor not installed but included)

The heart and soul of this horse is its STOUT factory 289 engine! The original engine block was freshened up in 2013!

However, there were several performance goodies added to give it a horse power boost and a little more kick.

I think that it is important to mention at this time that this Ford is drives with ease but it has sufficient power on tap for those who desire to use it!

The original 289 was rebuilt in the fall of 2013. Some of the upgraded internals include a performance B303 Cam Shaft and upgraded valve springs! Tappet lifters were installed along with an Edlebrock performance intake!

Finally a new Edlebrock 650 Carburetor was placed on top with H.P. that works in conjunction with H.P. plug wires and a Flame thrower coil that provides an extra spark for maximum lift.

There has also been a good deal of work done to make sure that this pony is just as dependable as it is strong!

Preventative maintenance has been addressed at every turn! Plugs, belts, hoses, battery, starter, alternator, fuel pump & entirely too much more has been replaced recently!

Keeping things cool under the hood is no problem at all! A high output flex fan has been attached to keep the FordMoCo radiator operating as it should! A new thermostat and water pump has been matted to the block!

The motor has plenty of giddy up!

LOVES THE OPEN ROAD!

On most days you can start the car by pressing the pedal once & twisting the key!

There are no words that can explain how good it feels to know you can hit the road in confidence!

LET’S FIRE HER UP!

What would a 60’s muscle car be without a rumbling dual exhaust?

This Mustang can be heard coming! That is thanks in part to its chambered system!

Each and every time you mash the pedal it sings a sweet note “PURE Nostalgia”!

To top things off there is an excellent set of spank brand new 17 inch Torque Thrust style Rally wheels (Bull Dog aggressive stance)!

This pony has a restomod look that “stops traffic”!

The mag wheels don’t have a single scratch on them!

Every guy driving a modern muscle car today can’t help but point / acknowledge you or give thumbs up! Proper respect and honor to the cars that started it all!

This one also has a set of brand new HT Sumo Tumo Performance radials at all four corners!

Ready for years on trouble free performance!

Don’t miss out on your chance to own this quality investment vehicle! You may find another pony but you will be hard pressed to find one with the history that this one has!

Very unmolested and 100 percent numbers matching (investment grade)!

The time, effort & money spent preserving this car can’t be properly measured. That being said I have set a very reasonable reserve on it! She is being offered at a fraction of what it cost to keep her in this condition through the years!

This Mustang is also structurally sound!

This is something that shouldn’t be taken lightly by anyone considering a classic car!

RUST REPAIR CAN BE EXPENSIVE!!!

I have taken several detailed photos showing just how SOLID this vintage Ford is!

The floors, torque boxes and frame rails are in excellent shape along with the trunk and drop offs!
