I own (45 years) a 68, J-Code, 4-speed, Highland Green Deluxe Fastback. Upper and lower consoles, with factory air. According to my Marti Report, it’s a One of One as ordered from the factory (San Jose).
67 was the most beautiful
Also competing manufacturers introduced their own pony cars. 1967 saw the new Barracuda, Camaro, Firebird and Cougar. 1968 Added the Javelin/AMX as well as the first low buck stripped down muscle cars like Road Runner and Super Bee. Lots of options for young buyers.
Good Memory!
Barracude was updated in 67 but introduced earlier than the Mustang in 64.....
1967 Motor Trend Car of the Year: the Mercury Cougar.
Awesome car. I own and DRIVE 67 Coupe with a 347 stroker. Always liked the fastbacks.
U can always put on a fastback body on top of it 🌚👍
It’s wild how many cars were being manufactured and sold back in those days. What a time.
Like how you were driving it barefoot so that you didn’t put no shoes or nothing on the carpet and pedals what a beautiful car
What a great car and video. I like that when driving you didn't talk through all of it, you let the car speak for itself. I just became aware of your business and subscribed to your channel and will go to your website often to see what's new.
Hi and thanks for the video. I also have a 1968 (1/2) Mustang with the 302. Why doesn't anyone in these videos mention about how back then the Mustang was designed for the windows to be rolled down and when they are it is not like a wind tunnel inside. The aerodynamics of the car allows, yes, airflow inside the car but yet you can talk and a woman with longer hair doesn't get thrashed around by her own hair. Just makes for a more pleasant ride. This is the first time I have mentions this in probably hundreds of videos I have seen. You are welcome. :) :) Next time out for a test drive in one of these fine rides take notice of this. It's quite amazing if you think about it and compare it to a modern car. Our vehicles here at home there is no way we could get out on the highway and go to the cabin! Long drive. I think it should be part of the profile you are speaking, but just my thought. Keep cruzin!!
This blue is gorgeous. Beautiful car! Owned a red 68 289 3 SPD, all manual, back in the mid 70s. Horribly unreliable, but I loved that car.
Man that is a beautiful car.
OHHH WOW! Absolutely stunning! Jaw dropped I mean.... It's perfection.
Stunning car love it thanks for sharing
Nice car. In my experience I have also found the VIN number stamped on a smooth pad on the upper left of the block behind the intake on 68 J code Mustangs. You have to climb on top and bounce a light off a mirror to see it when the engine is in the car.
I got chills during that pull. I can't wait to finish mine! ( 67 fb 390fe)
What an Amazing Piece of Automotive History! 🤙🤙😎
That's awesome! I have a 68 cougar named Blue Jay too. Like 68 over 67 for some reason, think it's just the more options steering wheel and the marker lights are a plus for looks I think
I love all those Beautiful classic mustangs no other mustang beats the classic styling of the 1st gen mustang I'm looking to get a 65 or 67 coupe in a few years to go with my foxbody and 2011 5.0
Because of the introduction of the Camaro in 67.
Love it ❤❤❤
Gorgeous! What is the color?
Sounds good.
What is the color name and code for this mustang? It's such a beautiful blue!
I have a 68 coupe that is this color but not original, been trying to match it for a while. Wish they’d tell us. Code on door tag looks like M which was Wimbledon White.
@@josephcalabrese9720 Yeah it'd be nice to know! I'm about to paint mine and have had trouble finding the correct blue! This is it though
Nightmist Blue I believe although it could have been painted at some point
One year only for this rare 302 motor
Very Nice... ';-) Thanks~
Ese es un paraíso Mustang ❤😍
hi man 68 is my dream mustang .
Why is the vacuum advance on the distributor disconnected.
Love the original interior, original gauges, everything OEM correct. I hate hybrid classics with strange dashboard, odd gauges. Original aqua marine interior looks pretty, odd, usually used with french vanilla paint job and factory tinted windows. I really appreciate a factory stick shift, kind of miss the 3-speed, drove most people nuts, made me laugh. The only thing missing is a balanced & blue printed motor for extra durability and hardcore fun. YEP! I would love to buy a car like that, however, you couldn't leave it alone on a street. Today's generation would sit on it for selfies, or key the paint out of jealousy. Crazy fools would definitely brake check you to wreck it or damage it.
Would you happen to know how many J code deluxe interior were made in 68 fastback?? I can seem to be able to fine info..??
I had a 70 Boss 302 and a 69 with a 428 transplant
I’m more of a 65-66 fan but that is a nice car😊
Skip the 390 for the 302 4V. Good advice in 1968.
Beautiful video of the greatest Mustangs but you should put period music like The Beach Boys or something!
I had a Navy Blue one with a white C strip. New it was $3200 302 fastback GT. Got married and had to sell it. This was 1969.
What is the ride height on this as-is?
My70 Mustang f back 351 Cleveland turn 4000 @50 mph in 4th maybe a 4:56 14 inch wide ovals any It walked away from a GTO or roadrunner for a while
Beautiful car. Can you please tell me the exterior color? Tried to sneak the code off the clip but can’t make it out. Thank you
I think it was said in another video (Morning Mustang walkaround) that this is a custom color
acapulco blue
Mine!
Guardsman Blue?
Nice ... what's the price ?
❤
Is this a solid lifter 302?
No. The Boss 302 was the only 302 with solid lifters. It was introduced in 1969.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Had 8f02j147687 - had to sell after putting Shelby glass on it after financial distress - probably junk now - bought for $600 in 76
I had a 68 coupe, 289 with that very same interior. Wish I still had it!
😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
probably at least 70k. Nice restoration though.
This it's beautifully perfect car FORD BLUE SHELBY GT500 COBRA 🐍 look good Car for just give to me bring it up to on Australia Queensland Brisbane give to me Craig Penhall My dream SHELBY COBRA GT500 ohhhh yeahhhh

If you have to ask, you can't afford it.
Wrong hood on that GT
HELLO GORGEOUS!
I'm sure this car is gone along time ago 🙂
Great car but I969 Fastback Mach 1 Best looking car ever made.
Vietnam war took all the buyers away
Digging the barefoot 🦶🏻👍🏻🍀✌🏻
Why does this guy keep talking about chevy motors when these cars are FORD MUSTANGS
Because back in the day Camaro was a direct competitor to Mustang and had more small block V8 options (307, 327 & 350s) in their first gen cars. They offered more horsepower for a given amount of money, so people buying performance pony cars back then compared them, and those same folks today or their kids might be buying survivors like this one with the same considerations.
Like you, I don’t think he needs to talk about the competition because in the nostalgia market, folks will likely only look at what they already like. But maybe that’s just me. I bought my first car in 69 and I was looking strictly at Mustang fastbacks (for the looks) and Roadrunners (for the power). I didn’t care about owning the other pony cars, and I still don’t - no matter how much fun I had (and have) driving them over he years.
Bad exhaust tips and the wrong tires
It needs the Godzilla Engine with a whipple Suprecharrger
How about less of the guy and more of the car.
The Camaro came in 67 that stole sales from the Mustang.
Its a cobbled up mess wrong steering wheel wrong wheels that are 69 tailpipes are wrong and sounds like a rice burner Very sad to see a classic done this way and too each there own
Roger , if you think it sounds like a rice burner, you don't know what a rice burner sounds like.
Outside of the 69 body style no other design comes close to the 67, 68 fastback cars. That 302 hauls ass. My 2 favorite Ford motors are the 289 and 427. Saw a 67 Fastback with a 427 FE BB and a 4 spd. Imagine the shock on the faces of the BB chevy boys when they realized too late , WAIT THAT AINT NO SB INDER THE HOOD. LOL
Hate myself for selling my blue 68 in the divorce when I was young.
How much is that car worth today?
