 SHOW IT, DRIVE IT, ENJOY IT…AN AWESOME MUSTANG


My name is John.  Please call me at 801-680-8447 with any questions

 

This is a beautifully restored example of 1967 Mustang Coupe that has been transformed into a convertible roadster with a removable Fastback roof. It runs great, drives great, looks great, and the attention it gets is extreme!

No Disappointments: This Mustang is a great investment and a fun car to drive and enjoy. From the engine compartment to the trunk and everywhere in between, this is a clean car. 

The following will be a description of each area of the car, being as in-depth and accurate as possible. Please keep in mind that this is a classic car that is over 46 years old, and although I will describe everything as best I can, some small items may have been overlooked.

BODY:

As you can see from the photos, this Mustang has an absolute gorgeous body.  The car was professionally painted in the green that you see now. A high-quality prep and application was professionally performed. The underside is all original sheet metal, with great frame rails, strong torque boxes and undercarriage.   This is the best undercarriage that I have seen. The panels on this car show great fit and are straight. 

INTERIOR:

  • The interior is also professionally restored with all new soft trim including:      

  • Upholstery

  • Dash Pad

  • Door Panels

  • Headliner

  • Carpeting: 


  • ENGINE / MECHANICS:

The 289 310 HP engine has been professionally rebuilt.  There is  2630 miles on the rebuilt engine and 5 speed transmission.  The car runs strong and fast.  There are no fluid leaks, or smoke. 

  • 1" Front sway bar

  • KYB Gas-A-Just Shocks front and rear

  • Ceramic silver coated long tube headers

  • 2 1/2' Flowmaster Dual Exhaust with Pipe (sounds aggressively amazing)

  • Coys Custom Eleanor Wheels

  • Comp Camshaft

  • MSD electronic ignition module

  • MSD Distributor

  • Holley street avenger 670 CFM Carb

  • Edelbrock HI-Flow Fuel Pump

  • Edelbrock RPM Airgap Intake Manifold

  • K&N Air filter

  • Aluminum Big Block Radiator

  • Flaming River Manual Steering Box

  • T-5 five speed manual transmission

  • Cable type clutch conversion

  • Old Air Products Hurricane Air Conditioning System (need to finish lines and charge)

  • Optima Ret Top deep cycle battery

  • Delta HID headlights

  • Sony XPLOD stereo CD player with IPOD Hookup

  • Sony 6" front speakers and 6X9 rear speakers with 2 8" 800watt subwoofers with custom sealed enclosures

  • Sound Storm 1,000 watt amplifier with remote gain adjust

  • Center Console

  • Custom Auto Meter Sport Comp Gauges

This Mustang starts at the flick of the key and runs strong and smooth.  The car tracks straight and brakes straight, has good steering response and a nice ride. The 5-Speed transmission shifts very responsive and smooth. The engine compartment is clean, and detailed. Front drum brakes and rear drum brakes.  Suspension and is firm and responsive to the touch.  The car runs and drive like new.  Fly in and drive home this mechanically sound automobile.

 

TRUNK:

The trunk area is very clean, detailed, and looks great. There is not even a hint of rust.  No issues here, the pictures of the car speak for themselves.

 

COMMON ROOF QUESTIONS:

·     How is the roof attached?  Is the roof water-tight?



The roof weighs 75 pounds when tried out.  the roof comes off with 2 bolts and 2 wing nuts, and can be removed in less than 2 minutes.    The top is held on by two bolts in the front and two wing nuts in the rear.   (See pictures below) There is a metal header attached to the roof.  On this metal header, there are two tinnerman nuts (mustang fender nut clips)  The two bolts go thru the mustang convertible sunvisor bracket dowel pin guide hole and thread into the tinnerman nuts,  The fiberglass roof up front is built to have a gasket that sits on the windshield stainless steel trim.  The back of the roof is held on by two wing nuts.  For mounting the back of the roof, two coupe sunvisor bracket rods are secured to the rear seat metal back frame. (Don't laugh . . . it works, its simple and inexpensive.)  The sunvisor bracket rods so they could swivel out of the way when the top is in the down position.  This keeps the top from tearing or catching the mounting rods.   The sunvisor rods are tapped to accept a 5/16 wing nut.  The sunvisor bracket is double nutted for  a height adjustment of the roof.  There is metal reinforcement attached to the roof where the wing nuts attach.  The owner can adjust the double nut, thus adjust the roof height.   I choose to have the roof sit 1/4 inch off the paint.  I do not want to marr the paint.  Weatherstripping can be attached to the roof where the roof sits on the convertible boot snap trim (hockey sticks).  This weatherstripping will keep most of the water and wind  noise out.  When the new owner installed the rear glass, rain should not get into the car.  However,  if this car is taken to a car wash, and the pressure washer is aimed at the roof to body lines, or the window to roof lines, some water will get in, just like any old Mustang.   In short, the roof can be as water tight as the new owner wants it to be, but keep in mind that the tighter the roof, the more chance for paint damage. 

·     Where can I buy a roof?

 We own the mold and make the roof.  The roofs price is $2,500 + $150 crate fee + shipping.   Shipping is the responsibility of the buyer.  This is for the fiberglass roof only.    The back window, drip rail and window trim is not included. 

 ·      Where can the other parts that are not included in this auction be purchased?

 Back Mustang Fastback rear glass, drip rail, rear window trim can purchased from any large Mustang Supplier such as:  NPD and Mustangs Unlimited.

·     Can the trunk open with the roof on?

 The trunk can not be opened with the roof on.  I have tried many modifications to make this possible.  All of the modifications drastically changed the look of the convertible. 

OVERALL:

The car of course gets lots of looks, it's really what I'd call the perfect collector car: a super desirable 1967 Mustang roadster with a removable Fastback roof.  This car is mechanically sound and runs fantastic.  The title is free and clear in my hand.

Ford's Farley apologizes for saying Blue Oval tracks customers with GPS

Fri, 10 Jan 2014

Ford marketing head honcho Jim Farley made waves at CES this week by telling show attendees, "We know everyone who breaks the law, we know when you're doing it." according to a report by Business Insider. Farley continued by saying, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone."
Farley has since amended his statement, saying that Ford dose not, in fact, track its customers in their cars "without their approval or consent."
Apparently carried away with a hypothetical notion, Farley was attempting to describe how Ford might be able to employee aggregated user data for things like accurate traffic reporting and pattern spotting. A Ford spokesperson confirmed with Business Insider that its GPS units are not sharing the whereabouts of drivers, though there are a few on-board services that might do so. After opting in to the services (and presumably being made aware of any/all tracking and data collection), Ford's Sync Services Directions and Crew Chief software do, in fact, allow data collection as a means of improving both systems. Farley added that the opt-in data is not shared, even when being tracked.

2015 Ford Mustang GT Line-Lock Burnout

Mon, 03 Nov 2014

In this brief Short Cut, Autoblog's Steven Ewing demonstrates Line-Lock on the 2015 Ford Mustang GT. Accessed through an on-screen performance menu, the feature temporarily locks the front brakes to help you heat up the rear tires for better traction, as you would for drag racing. The result? A 15-second smokescreen.
