Ford Mustang 289 V8 1967

General description : VERY AFFORDABLE & FUN! 289 V8, AUTO, PS, FRONT DISCS, COLD AC, GREAT COLOR COMBO

This 1967 Ford Mustang coupe has a nice look, doesn't it? Not some kind of over-done Shelby clone, not finished in some modern color, but rather a tastefully modified coupe that offers an authentic feel with a few small surprises.
First of all, it's almost impossible to make a vintage Mustang look bad, and this one certainly attracts attention in the showroom. The black paint doesn't scream at you, but after you spend a few minutes looking it over, you can see that while it was done some time ago, it was done well. The panel lines are arrow-straight and line up well, a critical factor on these cars in particular, whose C-shaped side moldings leave nowhere for bad gaps to hide. Then there are the custom details, especially the orange C-stripe and hood stripes that really pop against the black paint. It's not perfect, but since it's black, a pro could probably give it a modest cut and buff to really bring it back. Most of the trim is in good shape, too, although you may want to call one of the aftermarket suppliers and grab a fresh grille, since this one has seen better days. But on the upside, you also get those cool crystal clear headlights that offer an updated look.
The interior puts a neat spin on the original design, and it was done by that nice lady Sue, who shows up on "Gas Monkey Garage" now and then. Tan inserts in black buckets looks awesome, especially with the black paint outside, offering a custom look that's not too over-the-top. Matching two-tone door panels work well with the new seats, and the carpets remain in excellent condition throughout. Factory gauges are joined by an aftermarket dial parked under the A/C unit (ice cold, by the way), and you'll note that the Grant GT steering wheel has a Cobra horn button; a nice touch. The original radio is gone, replaced by a modern Kenwood AM/FM/CD stereo head unit and we're happy to report that it sounds amazing with all the extra speakers. There's also a neatly finished trunk with custom enclosures for the subwoofers and amplifier, as well as a battery box to house a second battery for powering the massive stereo.
The engine bay isn't detailed for show, but it is well engineered and ready to play. Ford's 289 cubic inch V8 was almost an ideal blend of low-end torque and a great willingness to rev, both characteristics that are enhanced by the Edelbrock air filter and a Holley 4-barrel carburetor. Power steering is always a welcome option on an early Mustang, and that giant aluminum radiator up front should just about end any worries about overheating, no matter where you live. Long-tube headers dump into a rumbling dual exhaust system with twin glasspack mufflers, so it has an awesome performance sound. A C4 3-speed automatic transmission and the indestructible 9-inch rear end still hangs out back. The front end was recently rebuilt, and the glittering chrome Mustang Cobra wheels with fresh 245/45/17 rubber actually look pretty darned good on the vintage pony car.
A decent car with a lot of work already completed, this very affordable Mustang is ready to cruise and enjoy today. Call now!

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.

Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.

During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.

In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.

In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.

Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
