Vehicle Description
1967 Ford Mustang Convertible
From the 1967 Mustang advertising, bred first... to be first. Then
going on to list various features and at the end that say, and I
quote "Smitten? Great! I now pronounce you man and Mustang?"
A marriage made in heaven with Dark Moss Green metallic on the
exterior, a shiny snazzy interior, and a white canvas convertible
top. I do, I do...really love this car!
Exterior
Complete with the hockey stick vented panel in the front of the
rear quarter, and extending into the doors, a triple white racing
stripe just above the stainless trimmed rocker trim, and a
contrasting white canvas top, we are green with envy of this
wonderful example. Dark Moss Green metallic to be exact covers
straight rust-free steel panels which mind their gaps very well.
The beneficiary of a restoration several years ago, it still holds
its own. 14-inch styled steel wheels are all around and are wrapped
in like new black wall rubber.
Interior
A manual lowering of the ceremonial convertible (a rite of summer
if you will) and we see black vinyl that is all in excellent
condition. Shining like the showroom, the front buckets and rear
bench welcome you to get in and drive. A floor shifter sits proudly
the hump which his covered by black carpet that is slightly faded
to brown. An all original very clean dash and instrument cluster is
seen, and it has A/C vents but currently the A/C is not hooked up.
This car has factory power steering.
Drivetrain
The standard 289ci V8 is in an original engine bay which is clean
and presents with a nice patina, all in blue painted glory. A
single 2-barrel carburetor, (Autolite 2100 Carb), and a top loader
4 speed manual transmission are also attached.
Undercarriage
A Ford 8-inch 3.00 limited slip axle is attached to a solid rust
free aged gracefully frame. Some surface rust is on the usual
suspects. All structurally sound under here, with drum brakes and
stock exhaust. Plenty of patches on the rear frame rail are seen,
but no rust.
Drive-Ability
Twas a nice day indeed so we put the top downwind me and cohort
went for a jaunt. We found this car to run well, handle nicely,
shift smoothly, and corner with ease. We noted no A/C(needs a
condenser), but all other functions...well...functioned!
An older example still maintaining its luster, sporty interior, and
smooth-running power plant. Very nice paint, clean tear free manual
operating convertible top, sporty wheels, and shiny chrome and
trim. I feel we will be together at least until death do us
part.
