Offering a 1968 Mustang Fastback 2x2. This car has been sitting for a few years. It's a true 289 2v v8 C4 Auto transmission. It has a Holley 4 barrel on it now. The door tag indicates that this was scheduled for build in Sept 14, 67 and was actually produced in Nov 1967 (Marti Report below). I have not attempted to run this car. The person I purchased it from indicated that it "blew a head gasket" and the car has sat ever since outdoors in a driveway. He was the second owner as the title shows he had purchased it in 10/80. This car has been untouched in many years. I have done nothing with this car except find it and post it on eBay. This car would be a great candidate for ground up restoration. Underneath the car would need work as it is rusted! - I'm not a auto body guy but I can see the need for floor pans (example: for sale here on eBay for sale here on eBay) as under this car is rusted! A few notables about this 68, the dash cluster has a tack and clock (I've read that that was fairly rare). It also has Shelby Cobra style rims (need restored) that were added sometime in the past as well as the back window louvers (great shape) as you can see this in the picture.
I went ahead for a few dollars and purchased the Marti Report and can be viewed here.
For the demand as many, in more capable hands then mine, are building Bullitt's and Eleanor's out of them I can see the profit in this car. So there is a reserve. If you hit it, you will have yourself a nice project and in the end a beautiful and profitable car.
Thanks for looking and happy bidding! Contact me with additional questions.
Happy to assist in shipping - meaning you pay for it but I will work with you and your shipper for scheduling and to get it on the truck.

2015 Ford F-150 pricing announced, aluminum-bodied truck up just $395
Mon, 28 Jul 2014The eagerly anticipated Ford F-150 has had its 2015 pricing announced, adding only a small amount to the pickup's total cost, despite its weight-saving aluminum body. The XL and XLT entry level models only see a $395 boost over the heavier, current-generation, 2014 truck.
The XL starts at $26,615 while the XLT rings up at $31,890. The increase for Lariat is up a similarly negligible $895, to $39,880. Going up the ladder, meanwhile, the leather-intensive King Ranch sees the biggest jump of the F-150 family, with prices increasing $3,515, to $49,460. Finally, picking up the top-end Platinum trim will cost an extra $3,055, with prices starting at $52,155.
The higher prices are being blamed not only on the aluminum bodies, which trim up to 700 pounds of body fat, but on increased levels of standard equipment. While we were expecting a price hike, the fact that the 2015 F-150's volume trims - Ford spokesman Mike Levine told Reuters that the XL and XLT alone cover 70 percent of F-150 sales - have had less than a $400 increase is hugely impressive.
J Mays' legacy
Fri, 15 Nov 2013
Mays is by far not the first designer to use heritage design cues in his work.
The announcement that J Mays will be leaving his chief creative officer role at Ford Motor Company on January 1 ends a 13-year run in one of the industry's top design roles. While best known for having a hand in reborn classics like the Volkswagen New Beetle, Ford Mustang and Thunderbird (above), Mays' legacy is more complicated and nuanced than being considered the father of what is known as "retrofuturism".
Mustang GT350 reveal coming Nov 17?
Mon, 03 Nov 2014Ford looks to have something really big planned for the 2014 Los Angeles Auto Show. The Blue Oval has released the first of five teaser videos on the brand's performance heritage, and aside from some great images of racers over the years, the video includes a series of teaser images, the last of which points to November 17, 2014.
That's the day before press days open in LA, and considering the propensity of global automakers to plan lavish debuts the night before a major international auto show, it's a virtual certainty that Ford will be showing off some sort of special vehicle.
That'd be news in and of itself, but based on the images shown in Ford's teaser video - which include an Alcantara steering wheel, a "Powered by Ford" valve cover, aluminum pedals, sticky tires, a big, round exhaust tip, a honeycomb grille and a serious set of wheels - it seems very likely that Ford will be showing something performance oriented.
