    Ok folks ... remember.... you will never be fortunate to get a mustang in that condition at a decent price or have a shop with all those parts....
    First of all marketplace wants 8k for that before all the parts he put on it....
    And before anyone says anything....
    I ...DEAL ...IN ..RAW .. NUMBERS!!!
    so I know how much all that costs!!
    And clout is currency.... so us normies would spend wayyyy more

      Steve and I met as complete strangers, he didn't know who I was. I offered to buy the much nicer 67 mustang he was driving, which led to him telling me about this 68. He showed me some pictures and we agreed on a price of $5000. You see, you can do this crazy thing where you aren't an asshole and actually TALK to other humans, sometimes you'll be amazed at what comes of it.

      Ha dalton put you in there, as a 15 year old with my father being to broke for cars and him not having a great interest in working on them, we don’t have anything, so using a fake marketplace account and talking to people for 120 bucks I have a low mile (now completely disassembled and stored at my friends house) 69 302 which came with an edelbrock 289 preformer, and when I get a job and get later into high school I’ve looked at even solid body 70 mustangs (I like 70s) that were 6 cyls and sadly not fastbacks (70 fastbacks look better) but I could talk pricing down, and do some experienceless “bodywork” and “paint” so it looks “nice” then stroke my 302, good parts, can still just drive it, get a t5, upgrades and it will handle the 347, get some qa1 parts, maybe change the front brakes to disk if they aren’t already, just make my own exhaust, interior is whatever, aftermarket hood maybe later on, like of of the shaker ones, and for that, a fun, 500hp high revving, high speeds, cruising, comfy, good lookin 70 stang will cost 20k, which I know is a lot but at the same time it’s a 500hp high revving reliable thing that looks good (yes I know I didn’t include rims or tires for a reason) dalton is right problem is is everything cost money to be great, but not everything costs money to be worth it, some things cost effort

    Makes me wish I still had my 67 GTA that was the same color of frost turquoise. It was in better shape than your 68, but not by too much. Owned it more than 20 years and thought it was my keeper, but tough times and financial desperation forced me to sell. Got $3000 for it back in 2013. Sad thing is the last 5 years I owned it, I didn't drive it. It just sat in the garage because I wanted to restore it to perfection. I appreciate Dalton's wisdom about just getting stuff running so you can enjoy it while you work on it. Thing is, it ran good with a nice built 302 before I parked it. I'd love to have it back and drive it, primer spots, tired interior and all. Thanks for the inspiration and memories Dalton.

    As someone who grew up in the South but lived in the high desert of NV for a decade or so, there's just something about it you can't get away from. I'm back in the South again, but miss those desert sunsets all the time. Maybe when JD is 18 relocating to the desert is something you all can do.

Pinion seal was a smart move! I built a '65 convertible for my son, it was my wifes car and she let us have at it. That was a fun project, we restomoded it, it is a looker and it has giddy up and go a plenty.

    I had a 67 Mustang in high school. It was 1974, yeah I'm an old fart. It ran like shit, burned 2 or 3 quarts of oil per week but I couldn't kill that 289. I scraped up enough money to rebuild it in high school auto shop. In 1975 after graduation I joined the USAF and drove it from California to Chanute AFB in Rantuol, Illinois for tech school, then back to Cali to my assignment. No, I don't live in "Californication" anymore but those great memories in that Mustang live on!
