1968 FORD MUSTANG - FULL RESTOMOD WITH 14,000 MILES IN IMPECCABLE CONDITION
This Ford Mustang 1968 coupe was fully restored/modified in 2014. It is in top condition with less than 14,000 miles, driven only during spring/summer months. The original car belonged to my father in-law and was powered by a 289ci V8 with a three-speed automatic transmission. Upon his passing, I undertook a 2-year project to restore and modify the car to make it car-show ready.
The body was taken down to its bare bones through thermal and blast stripping by Aesthetic Finishers (afpower.com) and then rebuilt and painted by Greg Huber from Kaotic Kustoms. A new (2013) crate Ford Boss 302 engine (444 HP at the crank) was installed and customized by Paul Faessler and his team from Paul’s Automotive Engineering, together with a new 6 speed automatic transmission, ECU, reinforced suspension, power assisted front disc and rear drum brakes, C&R Coyote radiator with fans and trans cooler, etc. All the interior has been re-done with new upholstery using the original seats frame and door panels. All instrumentation is new, using Dakota Digital instruments but with the 1968 Mustang look. American Racing 16” wheels with Michelin tires completed the package.
This was a single-family owned car that, unfortunately, I need to part ways with, as I am in the process of moving from Ohio to Florida and downsizing from a house to an apartment with no space to keep the car. All in, I have spent north of $100K on the car and my asking price is $60,000. Hope to find a good home that loves and enjoys this car as much as I have.
