Vehicle Detail
This listing is for a 1968 Ford Mustang Convertible that needs a total restoration and will be sold at No Reserve . Please know what you are bidding on and bid accordingly. CLEAR TITLE \and VIN'S are all there ...Dash, title, door tag ....Yes , they are matching It is a factory 289 C code 2 barrel car originally but has been changed to a 4 barrel . This car has been stored for many years and does run/drive around the parking lot but is NOT road ready. It is equipped with power steering and power front disc brakes. It is a restoration project in the making. The underbody is very rusty ( please see pics) and not for the restorer that really doesn't have underbody floor and frame rebuilding skills. I have new inner rockers and floors that go with the car. The previous owner had good intentions but not the tools and skills necessary to perform a restoration on this model car. Needs front and rear torque boxes, rear frame rails at spring shackles, firewall to floor pans, floors, inner and outer rockers, front frame under floor extensions, and possibly other underbody items. I The tires are new Firestone whitewalls. The top is decent but would probably get replaced during restoration( it is power) . The interior is parchment and not terribly worn but will need new parts installed during restoration. The exterior has been restored back in the 1980's and will need to be gone through again. It does have a nice look to it and would probably be a better driver with a little mechanical work as the engine sound great and the trans does function. It is a complete car. The data plate codes are : Body 63A Convertible w/ std interior Color F Gulfstream Aqua Trim 2U Parchment Vinyl Date 29E May 29 1968 Build Date DSO 44 Twin cities Axle 2 2.79 rear axle ratio Trans W C4 auto True miles are believed to be 124,452 at the time of this listing, and the miles will not change.

Mid America Classic Mustang 444 Little Hills Industrial Blvd. St. Charles, Missouri 63301 On Jan-30-11 at 06:46:59 PST, seller added the following information: I have had numerous emails asking about the floors and mechanical. Yes, it can be driven but the exhaust is deteriorating. The brakes feel good and stop ok. The car looks great from the outside , it is just that the underbody has never had any attention to restoration. Most Mustangs get this rust if they are from anywhere east of the Rockies, There are a lot of shops and individuals that can do these repairs. I have seen some excellent work done in home shops or garages so maybe this Mustang is for you as a complete excellent project car that runs and drives is getting hard to find. As for doing the repairs yourself, you must at least have a mig welder , cutting torch setup, air chisel, hand held disc grinder , (and other tools )and assorted safety gear . This would be a great father / son project !!! Teach your kid skills that no one else of their generation will have . Wow their friends !! Be the envy of your neighborhood, and yes, you can say , you did it !!

This car runs , drives and stops, so transportation would not be a problem for your shipping company. Thanks for asking !! On Feb-03-11 at 10:31:01 PST, seller added the following information: Correction : I do state in the final paragraph of the description that you can drive this car home....that is an error when I copied and pasted the terms of the auction from another ad. This car does run and drive but will need to be transported as it is not ready for a long trip home on it's own. Sorry for the error.On Feb-03-11 at 10:33:41 PST, seller added the following information: Another correction: Body code on the door tag reads 76A not 63A as is listed. Again I apologize.
