Vehicle Detail

American as Apple Pie 1967 Ford Mustang O ffered For Sale is a 1967 Ford Mustang Coupe in very nice condition. This classic features a 289 V-8 engine with 4 bbl Holley carburetor, and a dual exhaust to complete the picture. This alluring Pony has plenty of "giddy-up," making it a cool daily driver and a fantastic investment opportunity. Vintage Mustangs are wonderful cars, and a great buy in the world of collectible automobiles, but prices are on the rise, especially if it's an early model with the desired 289 V-8. Over the decades, many early Mustangs have unfortunately fallen prey to neglect, accidents, or over-eager boy-racers who drove them into the ground. Not this example though; it's a survivor. This one lived in the Los Angeles suburb of Thousand Oaks, California, and it has been the pride and joy of one man for the past 20+ years. After four decades, this Pony continues to ride proudly in the American tradition, offering fine performance, good looks, and a huge following. The VIN for this 1967 Mustang is: 7R01C166657 for all you aficionados. Plate from door jamb indicates specification codes Click to the left for Larger Picture To find out what the numbers mean, click Decode to see the specifications in plain English. The Mustang sports an aggressive stance thanks to slightly larger tires in the rear. Centerline style wheels are a recent addition, tires are new. Driving a vintage Mustang makes you feel like a kid in a toy store...excited and full of energy. The experience is pure fun - both for driver and passengers. This car instantly transfers you to another era when The Beach Boys were always playing and taking an afternoon drive to the local burger joint was something you looked forward to. Cockpit is truly race inspired - it offers a complete instrument panel with separate readouts for oil / temperature / voltage. All the gauges function. Signals, wipers, and horn operate fine. Radio is an aftermarket Clarion cassette from back in the day, but it works! ............ Black interior is in excellent shape, and looks to have been either very well maintained or recently renovated. Seats, door panels, and dials are in crisp, clean condition. Headliner has a couple minor tears, but nothing needing immediate attention. Dash pad is in excellent shape with no fading, and no cracks. ............ Click on the Images Above for Larger Picture ............ Click on the Images Above for Larger Picture Glass and windows are in fine shape, and look to be the factory FORD units. Windshield has a small rock chip. One key locks both doors and operates the ignition, too...just like it's supposed to be. Carpeting looks to be older, possibly the original, showing a little fading, but there are no holes, and it's still very presentable. Seatbelts are present for both front passengers and the rear as well. Ruby Red is the Mustang's current exterior finish. However, Dark Moss Green was the factory color, as the "Y" paint code indicates, in addition to the traces of dark green still in the trunk. What better color for McQueen fans of a late '60s Mustang? ............ Anyway, from a distance the car looks decent, but the paint job is a cheap one, showing prep flaws and oxidation on the roof and deck lids. Sides are quite straight, though, and still shine nicely. I don't see any evidence of damage in the way of accidents or corrosion. The Mustang had been properly stored by the previous owner in dry conditons, away from the elements. .......... .......... Click on the Images for Larger Picture Deck lids show oxidation; circles are areas of paint that are chipped; primer shows beneath. ........... .......... .......... Undercarriage is about as good as one could hope for. It's dry, with no holes or corrosion. Just the typical surface rust, which rubs off easily, but nothing that has eaten away at the metal. All frame rails are straight, too, indicating the Mustang hasn't been in any accidents. Click on the Images for Larger Picture Trunk is in amazingly dry condition. The factory dark green paint still shows, hinting at the fine integrity of this Mustang. There are no holes, corrosion, or damage here. Again, it's about the best one could hope to find! .......... .......... Click on the Images for Larger Picture Up front, you’ll find the coveted Ford 289 V-8 motor. A tried and true specimen, if there ever was one. Pump the gas a couple times when it's cold, turn the key, and the throaty exhaust note that is "music" to any Mustang lover's ear, instantly comes to life. What's wonderful about vintage Mustangs is that they're so simple to work on. You can perform much of the maintenance with just basic hand tools and a quick visit to your local NAPA Auto Parts store. ............ ............ All the vitals are where they should be. Reportedly, the motor was rebuilt about 40K miles ago, according to the previous owner, but there's no paperwork. However, the motor does sound incredibly healthy, with no tapping, knocking, or other weird noises. All you hear is that throaty exhaust note, and that's always welcome. This motor is slightly hopped-up, too. On top, there's a Holley 4 bbl carburetor which provides great acceleration and power. There's also headers and an authentic dual exhaust setup. Driving the Mustang is always fun, and it feels good, but there is a noticeable vibration, seemingly from the front which occurs at approximately 2500-3000 RPM. It does this while in motion and when standing still in Park. I am not sure what the problem is, but the car performs fine on the highway and around town, and it doesn't seem to get worse as it drives. I've driven the car quite a bit at speed, and it has proven reliable, but the new owner might want to have the vibration checked out. Take a Test Drive! Click on Video Clip Above The fine 289 V-8 performance....the mental journey back to the '60s...the cache of a legendary American Icon.... all these tickle the senses and add to the pride of classic Mustang ownership. The example offered here presents a great value and opportunity in the world of collectible automobiles. This Mustang is not perfect, but it's an Honest car for someone who’s always wanted to join the club, or sold their classic ’stang years ago and now wants the magic back. Don't buy into the countless "projects" that require tons of sorting or don't even run. This one can be instantly enjoyed and driven to many of the upcoming Summer car shows. It is also an investment that's safe and will certainly appreciate in value. So, why not mix business with pleasure? This '67 Mustang is being sold in a Buy it Now at $9,250 format.
