It's just so pretty. I don't think anybody could argue. And that V8 rumble...oof, it's so sweet. That is a pristine example inside and out, looks like you could even eat off that motor!
That is a beautiful Mustang. I live in England but I really admire American classic cars for they really were beautiful cars and very well designed and this Mustang just goes to prove how good they were.
When I was a teenager I knew a man that had about 5 Mustangs with one being a ‘67 Fastback this color and it was a 390GT. They are the most beautiful cars in the world!
@@frenk9818 I saw s shell. No motor. No trans. Not much to speak of for interior... Listed for over 30k. But realistically it was probably worth over 15k thr way it sat.
I had a 67-68 Shelby GT-500 prototype (in royal blue) which looked very similar to this car. Bought it for $1000 in 1970. Loved it...but you constantly had to tighten screws or everything in the interior would rattle when driving over railroad tracks. Like many things, you learn to appreciate it more when it's gone.
I don't have money but still I am watching this..I think I am in love with this car...I know I can't have this in my entire life but this is the love of my life since childhood.
The '67 Fastback was just the prettiest Mustang ever, the lines are just beautiful and the back end of it is gorgeous with the roof flowing all the way to the back. Just my opinion.
Last year before they started requiring marker lights on the side of cars. Plus the extra padding inside the interior. The 67 deluxe interior is the best Ford ever came up with. IMHO
Latter half of the 60’s to the early 70’s (before oil crisis BS) were the coolest cars ever by far. Mustang, Cougar, Charger (my favorite), RoadRunner, Chevelle, Camaro… literally everything. The designs STILL look futuristic and were WAY ahead of their time. It doesn’t even make sense how it’s possible. Back when there was no replacement for displacement, and there was no debate over it. They literally considered a 350 CI engine a small V8 back then. Cars will never come this close to being this cool again. Ever. I envy any lucky bastards who have anything from this era. First and probably only thing I’d do if I won the lottery is buy all those cars I just listed.
I had a '67 390 4-spd, the main flaw was the rear suspension. The spring would load up and you'd get bad wheel hop on hard acceleration. Later I got a '68 428 scj and Ford had changed the rear suspension solving the problem. Damn, I miss both those cars!
I put chrome Lakewood traction bars on. I have alot of chrome on my 67 so they look nice. I never liked the yellow traction bars and always wondered why they chose yellow
Well said , many decades ago and still looks like it could be sold it new now , amazing lines absolutely one of the greatest automotive design ever the Mustang Fastback from the 60’s is muscle car at it’s prime !
Love your description. I own a 1967 base model Mustang coupe 3.3 6 cylinder 3 speed with a fair amount of rust and I absolutely Love it. The way you describe the idle of a classic car, and the soul it brings to it just sitting inside with the vibration, and the sound, is just beautiful and so true. My Mustang is alive in the way you describe any car being alive. Thank you for your video about the 1967 Mustang fastback. Most beautiful Mustang ever.
Such a beautiful design, I would take ten of these in every color before I was ever seen behind the wheel of that new Ferrari 296 gtb stupidity, especially with a RoadsterShop chassis.
With the 67 restyle, Ford really honed this machine to perfection. It has aged extremely well. The way that fastback roof blends with the car, it's just hot. The roof and the rear taillight panel are my favorite features. It looks great in almost any color, but the dark green is one of the best imo. Oddly enough it's been said that Lee Iacicca didn"t like the 67 remodel. To me, it"s oerfect...sans the white lettered tires
I wish I can get a Mustang like that. Either that, or a 1955 Ford F-100, or a 1972 Ford Gran Torino, to honor my grandfather, who died of Pancreatitis Cancer in 2015.
I have a 1967 hard top… came with the i6, previously swapped, now has a 289 hipo. Since I don’t bother keeping it original, might fork up the 12 grand for a fastback conversion kit.
It's called Dark Moss Green in 1967. I bought that exact same spec. car when I was in high school in 1978, as my first car. I paid $1700 for it, and had 156k miles and wasn't in great condition. My dad helped me rebuild the 390, and I upgraded to an Edelbrock intake, Holley carb. Hooker full length headers and Isky cam. It had the 3.00/1 gears in the 9 inch, but still ran 13.90's at 97mph in the quarter mile. I sold it 10 years later after putting almost a 120k more miles on it for $3500, the worst sale I ever made. I've missed my Dark Moss Green '67 Fastback 390 automatic every day since. I recently bought an Eruption Green '22 Handling Pack Mach1 that is a way better and faster car, but that '67 will always be my favorite, the most beautiful car that rolled off the Ford assembly line.
The problem with modern cars/mustangs is that yes, you can go out and by the latest one. But in a couple years time a new model comes out and you no longer have the latest toy. You'll always be chasing that rainbow. Where as a 67 Mustang will ALWAYS be a beautiful 67 Mustang
I'm in the process of building one of the 385 Lima engines hopefully for a Mustang if I can find one. The hunt isn't going well. Had a guy offer me the vin plate and a matching title the other day for three thousand lol
I think the designs these days are limited by safety regulations. You wouldn’t be able to make a 67 these days to pass regulations. It would have to have higher door frames, the headlights would have to be higher, smaller windows. A side pilar to protect the driver, it would need airbags everywhere so the dash wouldn’t be as slick and small, and the list goes on and on.
My dad bought two brand new 1968 Mustangs at the same time. The coupe, and the fastback. Both the same color, fully loaded. The whole package on both. The fastback was a 3 speed stick 289, and the coupe was the automatic, a 302. The coupe was $2,800 and the fastback was $2,600. He gave me the coupe. Then some jerk stole it in 1980.
Prefer 65-66. The way the fastback molds into the trunk looks better than how 67-68 go all the way to the rear. Interior is definitely nicer on these, but I'll take the smaller car.
Prefer the shorter ending of the roof line on the 65-66, leaving a short deck. If they did the same with the 67-68 I think it would look the best. That's why I prefer the 67-68 Coupe over the fastback. On the 65-66 I prefer the coupe also because the radius/curvature around the side windows is too large. Should have been tighter like the 67-68. I also prefer the simple side scoops on the 68.
65-66 are great looking choices, and everyone is entitled to their opinion of what looks good to them. That being said, you’re factually incorrect , 67-68 fastbacks are the best looking cars ever. FACT !
