After 15 years of being hidden away in a Minnesota barn, this 1967 Mustang GT-A is once again experiencing life in the sunshine! Manufactured for one year only (1967) the GT-A was simply the Automatic Transmission version of the GT. This one was ordered in Lime Gold with the Ivy Gold 2-tone vinyl interior. It featured the 390 / 4bbl, power steering, power brakes, AM Radio, Console, C-6 Automatic Transmission, Courtesy Light Group and Tinted Glass. All the lights work, the radio works, the wipers, heater, speedo/odo and AM Radio all work. While she's not perfect, I believe this car is an ideal candidate for restoration. The body is remarkably straight and the car is virtually complete. The floor pans, torque boxes and shock towers are clean, dry and solid. The interior is in remarkably good condition...I believe the front bucket seats have been re-covered in original color vinyl and the back seat, door panels, headliner and carpeting are all original. I found this long-hidden gem in April of 2013. After loading the car onto a trailer and bringing her home, I removed the gas tank, had it acid-washed, installed a new gas gauge sending unit, flushed the fuel lines from the tank to the carburetor, installed a new fuel filter and had it running in 15 minutes. After a few minutes of idling in neutral, the transmission began to work and within an hour or so, I was able to drive the car around the block. We've since changed oil and filter, done a full tune-up and replaced a brake line, a power steering hose and the starter just to be able to drive it a bit. The Good: The car is very straight and nearly complete. It has minimal rust (for a 50 year old car) and the structural components are very solid. It is driveable (wouldn't attempt a cross-country trek with her quite yet) and looks great from 50 feet! All the lights work, the radio, wipers, speedo/odo and heater work, it has good (radial) tires and, best of all, it was originally built with the most desirable engine available...the 390 4bbl. Because it smelled of moth balls and mouse poop, I removed the seats, removed the carpet, pressure washed the carpet, thoroughly dried it and re-assembled everything. It is now reasonably pleasant to sit in! The sheet metal is remarkably straight as are the bumpers and chrome trim...also, all the glass is in great shape. Based on the overall condition of the car and the fact that the odometer works, I believe that the actual mileage on the car is only 108,121 (obviously, I have no way to prove it). The Reality: While the car might impress your neighbors just sitting in your driveway, it really is a total project. There is bondo in the rocker panels and around the drivers-side rear wheel well and the car has been re-painted. There is some cancer in the driver's side door jamb as well as small holes in one floor pan and a 3"-4" hole through the floor of the trunk. The original kick-panels and sill plates are missing. The headliner has a hole (mice) above the passengers visor and the original carpet is faded. The steering is loose, the brake light is on (brakes work but require a lot of leg), and the transplanted 302 engine is only running on 7 cylinders (#4 Cylinder has no compression).
