Fatter T/A's on the back end for better bite; turn the idle up just a squirt (25 to 50 rpms) so it doesn't sound like an old Cat diesel where the pistons are changing holes. Otherwise....an absolutely BEAUTIFUL piece of machinery. I'm thoroughly impressed and extremely jealous!
My fav year, colors, GT trim, and engine. I have been around a lot of mustangs, member of clubs, own a nice 70 Mach with a 408 Cleveland, but this the best mustang I have ever seen
@@Coronet_shop 454 was really a big car engine with a quiet torquey cam, in high performance use they never gave what people expected because of the big inches.
Hermoso carrazo. Beautiful beautiful car !!! Chulada de maíz prieto 1st , then 2nd then 3er gear an,,,,,,,d Then 2nd gear Down shifting Will accomplish the gear motions and GR8 sound
I keep seeing '68's on YT portrayed as '67's!! That is WRONG! 67's DID NOT have the 2 scoops on the hood. Only '68's came with those! Try to be correct in your nomenclature!! Peace out...
This is a 67, and the two rear facing hood scoops are legit, with turn signals in them. I remember that since I was born because our family has a 1967 GT and it came with that from the factory, and my dad bought it new in 1967. Two fake grills on the side in front of rear fender gives it away as a 1967. 1968 didn’t have them.
@@rickagfoster I had a '68 with those fake scoops and it had the turn signals recessed in the scoops. It was an option. I bought it from my Dad, who bought it from a co-worker, who ordered it new. They were factory. I bought it in 1976 and had it until my wife (now ex) wrecked it doing something stupid. This car may be a 67 but it has 68 tail lights to go with the 68 gas cap.
@@toobad9946 My brother owns our 1967 and got an authorized plaque ordered from Ford authenticating the car. Your friend can do the same. Since it wasn't purchased first hand, would be nice to know for sure if those options were available. It could be the car was built in 1967 and sold in 1968 as a 68.
you take out the numbers matching motor and color change the original paint then expect the car to be worth more?? Then put in a poorly done radio to boot. You want to increase value when doing something like this? Think drivability... ie fuel injection and suspension/steering
or.....at the bare minimum, a loose air filter lid which, not only makes it superfluous at its job inkeeping out debris, is deburring the aluminum holes allowing fine aluminum ingestion from within. Makes the seller appear more like a car flipper than a serious, detail oriented enthusiast.
Yes, as a matter of fact he would, A 67 Blue Mustang to a Doors fan is what a 50's Pink Caddy is to an Elvis fan I have a 68 GTCS with a LA; DSO #71 so she was dubbed the LA Woman. And yes I have an Alta Cienega Room 32 keychain.
those FE blocks made amazing torque. Would not surprise me if that was over 550 ft-lbs. Nice color exterior, not a fan of the interior color. But as the old saying goes... I would not kick her out of bed. Nice car, Im sure it turns a lot of heads.
The Exact Way that a 427 FE sounds stock. Not that there was anything stock in comparison about them. Built for one thing Torque and Speed. 200 mph down The Mulsane Straight at LeMans in early 66 Long before the Hemis accomplished at Talledega. In 70
When I was a kid in the 80s I remember reading an article in a Hot rod magazine or car Craft. It was about a guy who bought a 67 or 68 black mustang fastback with a 427 in it that had sat for a while. On the way home he talked about racing someone in it and beating them. Does anyone remember the story that was put in Hot rod magazine or car Craft magazine?
As an old Ford/Mustang guy...as soon as you see a car that's not OEM that says GT you immediately get suspicious. If someone knows what they are doing it is VERY hard to tell a real dual exhaust car from a real GT. The math would say it's not a GT car...meaning if you want to drop a 427 in a pony car it would be cheaper to buy a C code car rather than a real A code GT car, which can be pretty pricey. Having said that, it was always my planned dream car to put a tunnel port side oiler in a '67/'68 Stang, but by the time i had the money and means do it I had already moved on to Turbo/GT Porsches and now Ferrari's, 2022 F8. But now that I am retired with plenty of time on my hands I am thinking of building one (a recently retired Principal Aerospace Engineer with a large American defense contractor Missile Systems company.
I owned the same color '67 GT. The GT (4sp) and GTA (automatic) all had the 390 with a built in tach. Mine had the full lock rear end. Could not keep u-joints in it. 3 cool things missing on this one. The center console was cool. Fold down back seat was sweet. But the best thing about the car was the original exhaust sound. By far the coolest sounding exhaust ever. At 325hp it ate up GTOs but couldn't contend with the Chevy and MoPar. Sold it and got me a 68SS. Not even the same sport. This car is not a GT. it is a clone. And not a very good one.
Youre Right its a not à reel clone because 390 its the first big block install but many dealership install them aftermarket for but only in 68 . its a option by Ford but no one sale in 1968 1/2 the CJ option sale..
