From the first glance, you already know you're looking at a fully
custom-built 1967 Ford Mustang GTA. But to really understand how
superior this one is, start with the details. The perfect paint for
the sunlight, custom body panels, performance-built GTA V8, and
every detail scrutinized, right down to the A/C interior... yes,
this is everything you want in the coolest restomod coupe
around.
It's ok to say "WOW!", because everyone else is too. This is the
product of taking a solid California car and then giving it a $60k
restoration. It started life as a rare W-code Clearwater Aqua GTA
coupe. So when they took it down to bare metal, we love that they
kept the tradition of blue by applying a custom application hue and
Ford's Aqua blue for racing stripes. And this kind of investment
means once you get this coupe out in the sunlight, it will radiate
color to outshine just about any other classic around it. But don't
get too focused on the paint, or you might miss some fantastic
details. For example, the headlight are classic tri-bars with blue
dot centers, and the bumpers have been polished so they can rival
the clearcoat for shine. Plus, this coupe has been completely
streamlined. The billet grille, clean C-channel, and shaved door
handles all come together to give this a very sleek and modern
look. And those Halibrand-style wheels have appeal to everyone who
love the original Shelbys to the modern Eleanor Mustangs.
Pop the remote door openers on the key fob and the sea of blue
continues. The aqua stripes on the exterior are a great transition
to the two-tone aqua interior. While this is the factory-correct
color package, you can instantly see there has been a lot of care
and investment to get it back to this pristine level. The dual
colors make for a uniform appearance on the door panels, dash, and
seats. And since this is a premium interior, you not only have the
insignia seats, but also the desirable factory center console. But
as you look over everything, you soon see this is far more than
just a premium stock presentation. For example, the radio has been
replaced with an Alpine AM/FM/CD stereo with iPod connections and a
killer 1700-watt subwoofer sound system. And the wood-rimmed Cobra
steering wheel with a full AutoMeter gauge package is a major
driver's upgrade. Still, some of your favorite upgrades you will
never see, but you will hear and feel. That's because the interior
was lined with Dynamat insulation during restoration, and the whole
car is stays cool with R134a air conditioning.
This real-deal GTA does carry the proper 390 V8, but from the
moment you see it, you know there is so much more going on than
stock. The consignor states this is the original motor, and over
$16k was invested in 2017 on this big V8. It was completely
rebuilt, bored .20 over, given a forged Cobra 429 crank, so the
full displacement now makes it a 409ci beast. The stout build
includes Arias 10.5:1 pistons, ported & polished intake, Blue
Thunder roller rockers, Edelbrock aluminum heads, Edelbrock
aluminum intake, a Holley four-barrel carburetor, and Hooker long
tube headers. There's a ton more that went into the motor, but we
don't have the room to list it all here. So please call for all the
details. For now, just know that this produces 450 horsepower, and
it was built strong enough to accept a 175 shot of nitrous (not
installed, just built to those hardy specs.) And as you look at the
undercarriage photos, you'll see more great upgrades like new
bushings, Shelby-style traction bras, welded frame connectors, and
thick sway bars front & rear. It's a terrific handling package that
now also includes larger Granada front disc brakes, modern Falken
tires, and a Flaming River power steering setup. The final piece to
this total package is the modern Ford AOD four-speed transmission
(after all, the automatic is the "A" in GTA.) It's built by Lentech
with a 2,500 RPM stall converter. This gives you the perfect
balance between power driving and overdrive cruising.
You can call us for the full detail breakdown (there's a ton more
invested in this coupe.) But you already know this is the kind of
classic build that only comes around once in a lifetime. So don't
miss out, call today!
