This is a True Texas car. Has been in storage since 1997. Car was restored as a driver sometime before then. Motor had been rebuilt and new paint somewhere prior to 1997. Car still looks good and runs good. When I first got it I had to basically replace everything that took fluid. The following has been done in last year....New gas tank, new fuel pump, rebuilt carburetor, New radiator and new water pump and most hoses, power steering rack and reservoir, New power brake booster and master cylinder ,new brakes and wheel cylinders. new clutch....also has new vintage air/heat assembly brand new and never been charged yet (heat does) Its R34 so pretty easy to charge. Inside the car has new front carpet,new door panels and armrest,new dash,,,,seats,headliner are the factory original I think. They are old, showing some where but plenty good for daily driving and good shape. Instrument cluster and dash trim is yellowed and old but I have all new stuff in the boxes and go with car. Also have new roof rail rubber and maybe other stuff. Interior lights work, all gauges in dash work like they should,rear dome lights, and even the radio (but has no antennae....no hole for one?) Outside it has a GT hood with working turn signals,new front bumper,new emblems on fenders. Paint looks really nice for nearly 20 years old...has one round paint blemish on cowl pass about size of half dollar...few chips here and there. Rear bumper original. Silver with pewter racing stripes. All turn signals,park lights and brake lights work...wipers work and horn when it wants too. Tires look new but are old and need balanced or replaced. Cragar old school mags. Car has the factory 289....it has heat plugs so has been rebuilt at some time. It runs good and dont smoke or get hot. Trans is borg warner 4 spd and shifts perfect with factory shifter. Has 2.79 hywy gears. Underneath is clean and looks good with normal wear. Body looks good and not wavy and dont think ever wrecked. Inside quarters look good and no bodywork showing anywhere. I bought to make a Shelby clone but everyone yells at me to not screw up this car because its a nice survivor. I drive around here and it fires up instantly and is a fun car.....I would drive it anywhere ( maybe tires if a long ways) Car would make a Shelby GT350 or BULLIT car real easy. This one is nice because has all pwr accessories . CAR IS 45 YEARS OLD SO NO WARRANTY....AS IS.....CAR IS FOR SALE LOCAL AND WILL PULL AD IF SOLD ....IF RESERVE MET IT RUNS TILL SOLD ON HERE. $500 NON REFUNABLE DEPOSIT TO COVER LISTING.

I had someone ask me the color and I guessed teal by looking under some rubber, I got a Mart Report and the color is Brittany Blue (Q code )which also explains the blue steering wheel cover. It was built Dec 7th 1967 . 4 speed and other stuff is correct. Had a guy wanted to trade in his Mustang and went to see it. I would take a nice builder in trade.....but I do not want a car wrecked or all the parts lost.....a hull is not worth $10,000 to me. I have a nice 1965 GT350 Shelby so not hard up on Mustangs. If you have a nice 65-68 FASTBACK ONLY that is complete .....I dont care about motor,trans,metal or chrome.....seats and interior must be 100% there and not busted. I might take a convertible 67/68.......I still want to build a Shelby GT 500. My phone is listed...feel free to call about car. Also car has a clear Texas blue Title.

On Feb-12-13 at 13:18:54 PST, seller added the following information:

I have a standing offer if the car does not sell.....I have lowered the buy it now and reserve price to reflect this. Most mustangs on here are basket cases requiring thousands of work or high end cars requiring thousands more to buy. This car is a nice unmolested basically original car in a medium price range for a 1968 fastback.

Ford Shelby GT350R sets 7:32.19 Nurburgring lap time

Mon, Jan 26 2015

It was over a year ago that the Chevy Camaro Z/28 clocked a Nurburgring lap time of 7 minutes and 37.47 seconds, propelling itself up the leader boards as the fastest American muscle car to lap the infamous Nordschleife. But now word has it that another piece of Detroit iron has clocked an even faster time. According to Evo, the new Ford Shelby GT350R Mustang has lapped the Green Hell in a blitzkrieg 7:32.19. That's more than five seconds faster than the Z/28, and propels the GT350R into proper supercar territory: incrementally quicker than the Ferrari 458 Italia and in league with lap times posted by the Nissan GT-R (though not the fastest Godzilla has clocked over the years). With output quoted at "more than 500 horsepower and more than 400 lb-ft of torque," and no 0-60, quarter-mile or top end figures revealed to date, this marks the first genuine measure of performance we've seen for the track-focused pony car - though the numbers have yet to be officially confirmed. The GT350R packs a 5.2-liter V8 unburdened by 130 pounds of excess weight – helped along by carbon-fiber wheels coated in Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2 rubber. Related Video:

First 1K next-gen Mustangs to carry 2014 1/2 model year?

Thu, 18 Jul 2013

A new report from Mustangs Daily, citing insider sources at Ford, tells us that the Blue Oval will produce 1,000 next-generation Mustangs with the model year designation of 2014 ½, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the storied marque. The commemorative half-year designation is a rumor that's been swirling in Mustang forums for quite some time now, and seems more plausible than ever with this most recent report. Certainly it's not far-fetched to believe that Ford will want to make a big deal of the golden anniversary for its most-loved model.
The story (compiled by Drew Phillips, who runs the aforementioned Mustang site when he's not directing the photography on these pages) goes on to say that the limited-run cars will be the first built on the new Mustang platform internally known as S550 (and spied testing in the attached gallery). Each car is said to carry a "special" VIN and build number, though no performance upgrades versus the 2015 cars to follow are in the works. A collector's dream then, rather than a weekend racer's.

1947 Chevy rat rod pickup leaves rubber and smoke in its wake

Thu, 08 May 2014

Cool comes in multiple flavors. One one hand, we have the sophisticated attraction of svelte design and the efficient use of power. Of course, on the other hand there is the allure of being the bad boy and going against the grain. That is part of the appeal of rat rods. Ideally, they are built without rules to an owner's specific tastes, and this widened and heavily modified 1947 Chevrolet pickup rod is a perfect example of that spirit.
Coming down the highway with a bent grille, rusted body and pouring smoke, it looks like the pickup from hell. It backs up the looks with some very impressive mechanicals too. Owner Troy Gubser says that the truck packs a Ford Power Stroke diesel with to 42 pounds of boost that runs out of 8-inch exhaust stacks at the back. He claims it managed 505 horsepower and 885 pound-feet of torque on the dyno. To harness all that power, this hot rod has a ZF five-speed manual gearbox with a ceramic clutch and short-throw shifter. Plus, it has cool little features like a doorbell on the tailgate that operates an air horn.
You might not expect a truck like this to actually be useful, but it has a fifth wheel coupling to haul an RV around drag races and car shows. The air suspension also probably keeps the ride fairly comfy when Gubser wants it to be. Scroll down to check out this beastly rat rod pickup and watch it engage in some diesel drag racing. Warning, there is some NSFW language.
