For sale in our Orlando showroom is a striking 1968 Ford Mustang. The Ford Mustang was born in 1964 and was introduced mid-year and was such a huge success it was described by Lee Iacocca as a "Home Run". And speaking of Lee Iacocca this car is autographed on the air cleaner by "Mr. Mustang" himself and even a photograph of Lee with this car. One of the most desirable features of early Mustangs was the 289 Cubic Inch V8 as seen in this fine example. The 289 not only delivered enough horsepower but was smooth and quiet and proved to be extremely dependable.
The 1968 model year saw the first set of mild changes to the front and rear style of the car creating larger taillights and recessed headlamps giving this car a meaner and more muscle-car look. The classic Mustang style was retained due to popularity and has some of the most iconic looks of any classic cars today. In addition to the beautiful Meadowlark Yellow paint this '68 has a classic black interior that matches the brand new black convertible top with new rear glass window.
Much work has been done to this particular car to not only preserve the overall appearance but also to make it mechanically sound and keep with the original style. One feature that really stands out on this example is the factory air-conditioning. Keeping cool during that drive makes this car more fun and this air conditioning has been converted to the 134A refrigerant. Options on car include air conditioning, power steering, power brakes, working AM radio, power convertible top and factory wheel covers. The paint work is and engine rebuild. Now is your chance to get into a turn-key Mustang that is originally from the Sunshine State.
