This 1968 Ford Mustang X-code convertible is a remarkable and rare
vehicle, notable for both its historical significance and its
exceptional state of preservation. It is one of only 67
convertibles produced that year with the 390 V8 engine and C6
automatic transmission. Further enhancing its rarity, this
particular model is one of only three painted in Gulfstream Aqua,
and it's one of just two that feature matching aqua bucket seats.
Additionally, it is distinct in being the only one ordered having
the option for deluxe wheel covers.
Originally owned by a single family and currently showing less than
45,000 miles on the odometer, this Mustang's authenticity is
well-documented. The documentation includes the original sales
paperwork, title, professional appraisals, a Marti report,
registration records, and detailed service records. Notably, these
records include the addition of an aftermarket exhaust in 1984 and
a comprehensive engine rebuild conducted in 2009.
The car underwent a careful repaint in its original Gulfstream Aqua
color between 2001 and 2003, ensuring it remains true to its
factory specifications. Additionally, it has recently been fitted
with a new convertible top. This combination of meticulous
maintenance, thorough documentation, and original features makes
this 1968 Mustang X-code convertible a unique and highly desirable
piece of automotive history. Its rarity and condition place it
among the most interesting examples of the Mustang lineage,
appealing to both collectors and enthusiasts of classic American
muscle cars.
