Vehicle Description
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to present this thoughtfully modified,
strong-running example of the 1968 Ford Mustang Coupe for your
consideration. Believed to be on its third owner, the original
being from Phoenix, AZ, this vehicle had an engine rebuild which
kept this sharp models powerful 302 V8 under the hood but now mated
to a stiff but smooth shifting 5-speed manual transmission to give
it an easier job of keeping up high speed cruises. The engine is
believed to be original to the car with late model headers added to
it, the camshaft has been replaced with a more modern touch, the
dual exhaust that it features sounds great and overall the
mechanicals and drivability cannot be overstated. The exterior is
of driver quality and hosts a great new set of wheels. The interior
is absolutely beautiful as it holds a lot of the original look to
it but clearly with all new material spread throughout including
beautifully done door panels, a very original-looking dash, fresh
carpet, new steering wheel, air conditioning and headliner. This is
a great find for those who love to drive their classics opposed to
look at them but could easily be turned into a real showpiece with
a little time and money. Call or email us today for more
information on this well-built ride!
Coming into its first refresh since the first one released,
Dearborn's pony car made a change for 1967 primarily to make more
room up front for its newest and best engine offered yet, the
big-block V8. The 289 V8 was no longer the most powerful choice for
the Mustang but was still offered alongside the newest edition, the
390-cid FE-series big-block. This engine was told to push 320
horsepower and with the 428 V8 on its way for the 1967 as well, the
Mustang had locked down the muscle car market. In 1968 the
transmission could be either the manual or the automatic but no
longer would there be a distinction between them like they used to
with the "GTA" for automatic or "GT" for manual. The first
generation continued until 1973 and to this day that first
generation is still one of the most sought after by collectors and
car enthusiasts alike.
