Absolutely stunning color combination and it was born this way!
Trust me, it is a blast to drive too. The 347 Stroker with a
5-speed and a posi will deliver. It recently completed a 13 month
restoration at Mustang Restorations here in Illinois. They've been
building Mustangs over 40 years. It was taken down to a bare body
shell and completely restored.
EXTERIOR: I assumed it was a color change because it's too good to
be true. The original tag calls for Presidential Blue with
parchment interior. Professionally restored body, taken done to a
bare shell. No rust, all metal. It is laser straight, all the gaps
are right on the money. The paint is polished out smooth and
glossy. The white C-stripe adds some pop. Every piece of exterior
chrome and trim has been replaced- bumpers, antenna, grill,
mirrors, door handles, GT gas cap, stainless moldings etc. It had
all new GT fog lamp assembly. In back it has the optional finned
tail panel. New white convertible power top, the framework was
repainted and has new weather strips. The door jambs are painted

whole dash area was taken apart and restored. All the gauges,
bezels, dash pad, steering wheel, visors look new. It has a
tachometer in the dash. Upgraded 300 watt retro stereo. All new
$1,200 wiring harness. And then there's the Hurst 5-speed shifter
sticking out of the floor!
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: New Blueprint 347-415 hp, 432 lbs of torque
stroker crate engine. It has aluminum heads, roller cam, forged
pistons and rods. On top is an Edelbrock 600 carb with electric
choke, new distributor with Pertronix ignition. It has new hipo
exhaust manifolds. New 3 core radiator, hoses, fan and shroud. 60
amp alternator. New power brake and power steering systems. The
engine bay is highly detailed, all the metal is painted semi gloss
black. Cadmium plated nuts and bolts throughout. The factory
markings were even duplicated. New hinges, chrome valve covers and
air cleaner. The battery is bolted down properly, new battery
cables.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The trunk compartment was completely stripped
down and was painted gloss blue. It has all new trunk liner
including tire cover and the bag for the jack. New well liner, tail
light housings, wiring harness and weather strips. Includes a real
nice car cover.
UNDERSIDE: The front end has been entirely apart and rebuilt. It

upgraded QA1 gas shocks. In back it has all new springs, bushings,
upgraded adjustable QA-1 gas shocks and tubular Caltrac traction

The Stars all aligned for this car. Gorgeous looks, impressive
performance and a high quality restoration. It is really dialed in.
I personally drove it home and did everything like it's supposed
to.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
**These cars are displayed in a museum. If interested in a
particular car make an appointment with a salesman to see that car.
Without an appointment there is an admission fee to enter the
showroom. If you buy a car, your admission will be refunded and you
will be given a 1 year membership.
