Wrench Report

RestoMods Head Mechanic. 20 year classic car mechanic & builder.

This is your chance to own a clean vintage Mustang coupe that benefits from seven years of continuous maintenance, capped by a fresh $10,000 paint job in 2025. You're getting a driving setup that won't come with any crazy surprises: it's just a nice 302ci V8 engine and a C4 automatic transmission with user-friendly features like power steering, power brakes, and an adjustable rear air-shock stance.

Description

This 1968 Ford Mustang Coupe is a turnkey vintage hardtop that benefited from seven years of continuous care under current ownership, capped by a $10,000 exterior refinish in 2025. Powered by a 302ci V8 engine with user-friendly power options and visual updates, this Mustang is now offered by the private seller with a clear Florida title.

The exterior features fresh $10,000 paintwork completed in 2025, accented by all-new chrome bumpers, emblems, and brightwork trim. Lighting upgrades include functional turn signal indicators built into both hood vents and side mirrors.

The car stands on 17 inch US Mags Rambler wheels with Nitto NT555 radial tires measuring 235/45ZR17 in front and 255/45ZR17 in rear. Air shocks installed at the rear allow the stance to be adjusted to driver preference.

The interior features front vinyl bucket seats and a rear bench seat trimmed in black and are said to be in excellent condition, matched by clean door panels and headliner trim. Interior updates include an upgraded aftermarket radio connected to a power antenna, along with LED bulb conversions for the instrument cluster.

The driver operates the car via a stock steering wheel facing a fully operational gauge cluster illuminated by modern LED lighting.

The engine bay features a 302ci V8 engine backed by a Ford C4 automatic transmission. Mechanical updates include an Optima battery and an upgraded aluminum radiator for enhanced engine cooling.

The chassis is equipped with factory-style power steering and power-assisted brakes for improved driver effort. Rear air shocks allow adjustable ride height setup.

Does this Stang have any History in Houston TX. Im pretty sure its the same one I had the opportunity to buy back in 84/85 while working at an exotic car dealership who took it in on trade. I could have purchased for 5K, I can shoot myself. Fun car to drive. Looks almost exactly as i saw it last and drove it to do my errands.

Justdriveit Seller Aug 8, 12:29 pm PDT
Not that I know of, this car has spent most of it's life in Georgia and Florida

Thanks for stopping by to look at this beautiful 1968 Ford Mustang. I have been the caretaker of this machine for the last 7 years and I will say it has been very enjoyable. Can't drive it anywhere without someone waving, giving me a thumbs up or coming over to ask questions. As I move towards retirement, I feel it's time to pass this car on to its next caretaker. Please feel free to reach out with any questions, I'll do my best to help you make an informed decision. Good Luck!

AC?
Justdriveit Seller Aug 7, 9:11 pm PDT
No AC but can be added in 1 day for about $1800 by your local shop.

Has the car ever been in an accident? , why not list a price and sell on Hemmings?, Why are you willing to lose money on the bidding process?
Justdriveit Seller Aug 8, 5:51 pm PDT
Accidents? Well, it's hard to say for sure on a 58-year-old car. I do know for sure that in the last 7 years this car has not been involved in any type of accident. Furthermore, there are NO signs of previous damage to the frame or any other parts of the car. I'm not willing to "lose" money, auctions like this give the owner the protection of a reserve that has to meet the minimum I'm willing to sell it for. Hope that helps you.
