1968 Mustang Coupe

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 1968 Mustang Coupe in remarkable condition. 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 45 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.  This year, the car was media blasted to bare metal and professionally painted in the deep dark red that you see now.   There is no paint bubbling anywhere on the outside body panels with the exception of the lower driver door.  This is very minor.  I could not get the picture to pick it up.  There are a few ripples and small dings. The underside is 99% all original sheet metal, with great frame rails, strong torque boxes and undercarriage.  The floor pans are original and very strong.  No Rust or ROT.  The trunk drop offs have been professionally replaced.  The panels on this car show great fit and are straight.  I would rate it a solid driver quality paint and body 8 out of 10.

INTERIOR:

·         The interior is professionally restored in 2013 with  new soft trim including:      

·         Upholstery

·         Dash Pad

··         Headliner

·         Carpeting

· ·    Antenna


All gauges work as they should.  The horn works.  All windows roll up and down properly and easily.  The front grill is new, from a 2005 GT Mustang.  New HALO lights in the grill.

ENGINE / MECHANICS:

The 5.0L EFI  engine was installed from a 1994 Mustang.   The car runs strong and fast.  There are no fluid leaks, or smoke.  New 17 inch Eleanor wheels and tires on all four corners.  the odometer state 02698.  There is 102.698 miles on the car and approx 50,000 miles on the engine.  This car has a new wire harness installed. 

This Coupe 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 C4 automatic 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 spare tire or jack.  No issues here, the pictures of the car speak for themselves.

OVERALL:

The car of course gets lots of looks, it's really what I'd call the perfect collector car: a super desirable 1968 Mustang Coupe that is a super nice driver with a 2013 restoration.  This car is mechanically sound and runs fantastic.  The title is free and clear in my hand.

Creations n' Chrome Top Notch Mustang is a one-of-a-kind fox

Thu, 07 Nov 2013

Is there a cooler car from the 1980s and early 90s to mod than a Fox-body Ford Mustang? No, there isn't. If you disagree with us, we suggest you have a look at this 1990 Mustang Coupe, which just might change your mind. Although considering just how extensively modified this car - the Top Notch Mustang from Creations n' Chrome - is, we wonder just how much Ford is left in this old pony.
It rides on a custom race tube chassis that weighs a scant 700 pounds, while carbon-fiber bits and bobs help lower the overall curb weight to a mere 2,400 pounds. When paired with supercharged, 5.0-liter, Aluminator V8 from Ford Racing, the results are, doubtlessly, exciting. 855 horsepower at the rear wheels and 667 pound-feet of torque are available from that force-fed V8 should be just plenty for this car's intended purpose of running in standing-mile competitions.
The Top Notch Mustang is more extreme than just weight savings and a big engine, though. That 5.0-liter is essentially in what's known as a front-mid layout - where the engine is actually behind the front axle. In this case, the 5.0-liter V8 is 17 inches further back than a factory Fox-body, for better weight distribution. As a result, the cabin has been completely overhauled. An SLA front suspension, wheels from HRE, Wilwood brakes and Sparco interior items round out the extensive list of mods.

Ford books $1.2B profit in second quarter on strength of trucks

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is rolling along nicely, with a positive second-quarter sales report and a $2.3 billion profit in North America. The Dearborn, Michigan-based manufacturer captured $1.2 billion globally from April to June, with a $177 million profit in Asia. Even in Europe, the land of doom and gloom for automakers not named Mazda, Ford saw some success as it lowered its expected full-year loss from $2 billion to $1.8 billion. The company lost $348 million in Europe during the second quarter, which, believe it or not, represents a $56-million improvement over 2012.
According to the report on CNBC, Ford enjoyed a three-percent increase in pre-market trading thanks to the news. The strong demand for the F-150 propelled growth in the US market, while Ford's 47-percent increase in Asian sales can be attributed to the new EcoSport crossover and Kuga (Ford Escape in the US) arriving in the somewhat fragile Chinese market.
Pre-tax profits for Ford are expected to be in the neighborhood of $8 billion by the end of the year, with sales the US, Europe, and China all looking up. The company also shifted $4.78 billion of asset-backed debt in the form of bonds, according to a report by Bloomberg. This move came amidst rumors of the Federal Reserve cutting back on its $85-billion-per-month bond purchases. Ford wasn't alone among automakers looking to sell off debt, though, as Mercedes-Benz and Nissan shifted around $1 billion each in bonds relating to auto loans.

Ford is building this sweet back-to-basics SUV in Brazil

Mon, 02 Jun 2014

We're use to forbidden fruit teasing us in Europe. Hatchbacks and diesels from Renault, Citroën, Peugeot, Skoda, SEAT and Alfa Romeo have been a regular torment that we've grown accustomed to over the years. This vehicle, though, is one piece of forbidden fruit we aren't entirely sure we can get over. We need it.
It's called the Ford Troller T4, and if you accidentally read that as either "reborn Ford Bronco" or "Americanized Land Rover Defender," we wouldn't be rushing to correct you. It's a basic, badass SUV, and is the first new vehicle to come from Troller since Ford gobbled it up in 2007. For those with longer memories, you'll recognize this vehicle from the concept that preceded it, the Ford T-R Concept. The production model remains remarkably true to the T-R, as well as past Trollers, but it's a slightly more modern look overall, with LED taillights, contrasting colors
You'll have to bear with us on the details, as we've been forced to rely on the notoriously literal Google Translate to convert the original Portuguese into English, which means some of the details were lost along the way.
