There aren't too many cars that have the legendary,
all-encompassing appeal that the Ford Mustang does. Taking a single
look at this beautiful 1968 Ford Mustang gives you a clue as to
why, with its highly-correct interior and exterior as well as the
performance-oriented engine underneath the hood. Popping it open
reveals a built 302 C.I. V8 equipped with aluminum heads breathing
through a 4-barrel carburetor, which means that this Mustang isn't
something to be taken lightly, despite its friendly looks. Torque
is put to the pavement through a 3-speed automatic transmission,
which allows for ample cruisability as it shifts nice and smooth.
The exterior's laser-straight bodylines are covered in the same
shade of "Sunlit Gold" as this Mustang came with from the factory,
and it's complimented excellently by matching white "C"-stripes
that ensure this Mustang turns heads wherever it goes. The chrome
brightwork shines nicely, accenting the gleaming rocker panels and
adorning this Mustang's bumpers well. Taking a look underneath the
car discloses a rock-solid undercarriage, with strong floors, frame
rails, trunk, and door jambs for added peace of mind. Opening the
twin doors and stepping inside welcomes you into a near-completely
original "Nugget Gold" vinyl interior, complete with comfy bucket
seats that are perfect for boulevard cruising and an original AM
pushbutton radio still sitting in the dashboard! The car is shoed
with a set of 14" Mustang-specific steel wheels wrapped with fresh
B.F. Goodrich rubber for a period-correct, factory-fresh look
that's tough to beat! With the way this Mustang runs and drives
down the highway, you're never going to want to leave the driver's
seat. Garage-kept and previously owned by an older woman, this '68
Mustang was affectionately cared for in a way that few others are.
With killer looks, proven performance, and plenty of cruisability,
this Mustang won't last long on the showroom floor, so don't let it
get away!
