Vehicle Description
The 1968 Ford Mustang Convertible is a true icon of American
automotive design, capturing both the spirit and the performance
that defined the era of muscle cars. This particular Mustang, built
on April 5, 1968, at the Metuchen Plant, is a shining example of
Ford's commitment to both craftsmanship and innovation. Originally
destined for New York, as indicated by its New York District Sales
Office (DSO) designation, it carries with it a history steeped in
the energy and excitement of the late 1960s.
Underneath the hood, this Mustang features the "C-Code" 289-2V V-8
engine, a powerhouse that provides an exhilarating driving
experience. Known for its reliability and performance, the 289 V-8
delivers smooth, robust power, perfectly matched with a C-4 Select
Shift automatic transmission. Whether cruising the highways or
navigating city streets, this drivetrain provides a blend of power
and ease that makes it a joy to drive. The 2.79 conventional rear
axle adds to its versatility, giving it excellent highway cruising
capabilities.
Originally finished in Wimbledon White, this Mustang has undergone
a stunning transformation. Its new Lime Gold exterior is
eye-catching, yet sophisticated, a hue that both reflects the
golden age of muscle cars and stands out today with its rich, deep
finish. The exterior paint is in excellent condition, with a
gleaming shine that highlights the car's sleek lines and muscular
stance. It's a car that commands attention, whether parked or in
motion.
The car is equipped with a black power convertible top featuring a
plastic backlite, allowing you to enjoy open-air drives with just
the touch of a button. The power steering ensures that handling
this classic is as easy as it is enjoyable, making it a pleasure to
drive even in modern traffic. Sitting on Magnum 500 chrome wheels
wrapped in raised white letter tires, this Mustang looks as fast as
it drives, embodying the perfect combination of form and
function.
Inside, the Mustang maintains its vintage charm with black vinyl
standard bucket seats, providing a comfortable yet stylish ride.
Adding a touch of elegance and warmth to the interior, the new wood
steering wheel is a perfect complement to the car's classic appeal.
While staying true to its roots, this Mustang has also been
tastefully updated with an aftermarket AM/FM/CD player, offering
modern audio convenience without detracting from the car's vintage
aesthetic.
The undercarriage of this Mustang is as beautiful as the exterior,
a rare quality that reflects the meticulous care this car has
received over the years. Every detail has been attended to,
ensuring that this car not only looks stunning but also performs
reliably and smoothly.
Whether you're taking it for a Sunday drive or adding it to a
collection, this Mustang offers everything you could want from a
classic convertible.
From its powerful engine to its pristine exterior and tasteful
updates, this 1968 Ford Mustang Convertible is a must-see for any
enthusiast or collector. With its rich history, stunning looks, and
exhilarating performance, it stands as a testament to why the
Mustang has remained an enduring symbol of American muscle and
style.
