For Sale. 1968 Ford Mustang Coupe. Car by the numbers. Vin- 8R01Cxxxxxx 65A Q 2B 18A 72 2 7 This car lived it life on the west coast. It is a very straight and original car. really rust Free. Much of the original metal is on the car. Clear Title, numbers match on right fender, dash tag and door tag. the engine does too The car is ready to be paint in the color of your choice This car is near the finish of the project. If any metal needed to be replaced ..it was. The Mustang has a light coat of a top of the line self-etch primer. There are still some low spots to be finished on the body, but the hard work has been done. Both rear quarters are new. They were nicely spot whelded the way it came from the factory.. the doors, ft fenders hood and deck lid, and floors, are all original as far as I can tell and very strong. The rails and torque boxes are also very strong all the way around. The engine seems to be original. We started it up in September 2012. it runs great, good compression. This was the first time the car was fired up in years and you should be very happy, it should not have to be rebuilt. I started it with the key. A battery does not come with the car. The engine bay is solid. I think one of the aprons was replaced and done nicely All the fuild levels were intact. You will want to change them to new fuilds. The gas is new, and the car ran off the gas tank with no leaked, NEW fuel pump. I made this youtube video of it. Follow this link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAE4bE1y7Yw&feature=youtu.be The carb needs to be rebuilt. The alternator needs to be wired up. The Transmission seems fine . I have never run the car on the road. All the lines are on the car and could/should work. The car will have to be towed, then you will need to check everything for safety before you put it back on the road., but it should not take much. There is a power steering unit will come with the car . I can send you a picture of it. The car pushes and steering around easily and nicely. The tires are all good ( just mismatched ) Interior is an original set but to a black car. I think the original color was blue. The driverside seat needs new skins. The dash has not been hooked up yet and the car needs anew headliner. The glass looks original. All those windows work. The back glass is not sealed. I was going to put a headliner in and paint it before we sealed it back in. The front glass is sealed. I know that I have missed something but I can not think of anything. The pictures should fill in any blanks. I had fully intented to finish the car off but I now have other things to do and I need to sell the car. IT IS A GREAT project car to work on. I hate to sell it. Very straight, Door close nicely. Good lines. You can paint it any color combination, that why I am selling it in primer. The sanded down the red primer and put this coat of self etching primer to protect the metal. There should be NO surface rust worries. and red you see in any of the pictures is not rust it is that red oxy primer base coat. The underside of the car is wonderful and solid.
