Ford Mustang GT 390 Fastback , Long term Ownership, AC, Manual 1967
General description :
Cars used to bought to be enjoyed for a long time. Who cannot remember that neighbour or uncle who seemed to have had the same car all throughout your youth? And probably on deeper reflection, that was exactly the case! People used to drive their cars for 10 to 20 years. The same counts for Virginia W. Anderson. She ordered her Ford Mustang GT Fastback in 1967 from Lamar Ford in Winchester, Virginia in the USA. It is impossible to enjoy a car for 44 years unless you have taken real good care of the vehicle. In this instance it is abundantly clear that extreme love and attention were lavished on this car. It is as if Mrs Anderson knew she would want to keep enjoying this car for nearly half a century (sadly we will never know if that was indeed the case). What we do know is that she meticulously accessorised the car form the outset. The car is a 4-speed manual, it has an electric clock, 14 inch wheels, power steering, an AM radio, set of stickers, heat shielding windows and luxury seat belts. This information is to found back in the accompanying Marti rapport. After 44 years the car was sold to the previous owner, a Belgium client, by a specialist car dealer. Before the car crossed the pond it had a modern aircon fitted. Today this Mustang is still in great shape. The Candy Red paintwork has been re-sprayed for purely cosmetic reasons and has been well maintained since then. The fine bodywork has correctly aligned body panels. Naturally, underneath the car all is rock solid and rust-free. The interior trim is in a lovely original condition. The car comes with an extensive file containing the original bill of sale and owner’s card. Quite a remarkable addition. Mechanically the Ford is in top form. The 390 Cu V8 engine runs superbly and remains amply powerful. The manual transmission shifts smoothly and precisely. If, in short, you are looking for a lovely Ford Mustang GT Fastback with great provenance, in good condition, then this is just the car for you.

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
