1968 Ford Mustang Description

I had this beauty rebuilt in 1996 as a safe and dependable daily driver and it has served me well since.
Despite having many added safety features, she still growls deep in your chest.
As a California native and Texas transplant, she has suffered no harsh winters (or road salt!) and has been kept in a garage since restoration.
  • 289 Engine with 130K miles. Pertronix ignition
  • T-5 Manual Transmission
  • Silky-smooth hydraulic clutch
  • Headers
  • Rack and Pinion Steering (Tight! No “play” unlike most Fords of this age)
  • Air conditioning
  • Modern audio (AM/FM/USB)
  • Front Disc brakes
  • Shoulder seat belts
  • Seats from 1969 (same style as 1968, but with headrest)
Are there issues? Of course there are, this is a 52 year old car!
  • Several dings, scratches and surface-rusted areas in the paint (the worst are pictured)
  • Front right speaker and the window washer don’t work.
  • Crank on the passenger side window is tough to turn and the side mirrors don’t like to stay aimed.
  • Dented oil pan (doesn't leak)
  • Speedometer/Odometer “read” about 10% low.
  • Parts of the carpet and upholstery are faded (the worst part being the top of the back seat, which is ready to crumble from sun exposure) and there is a small rip in the driver’s seat.
