Vintage Motorcars is proud to offer this 1968 Mustang Convertible at our Sun Prairie, WI location. 608-318-1945
The 1968 Ford Mustang used the same body style as the previous year with minor trim changes. The Mustang emblem was in the middle of the grille with no horizontal or vertical bars attached to the emblem. The air scoop on the side had a cleaner look to it due to the absence of the horizontal stripes.
In 1968 Ford introduced its new 302 engine, which would eventually go on to replace the 289 version. The standard 302 V-8 was capable of producing 230 hp, which were 30 more ponies than the 289 engine.
The Mustang’s side scoops were switched out in 1968 and replaced with one-piece chrome styling, accentuated by C-stripe graphics. As for the Mustang’s grille, it changed as well. Ford decided to do away with the horizontal bars surrounding the galloping pony emblem. Instead, they added a single band of trim surrounding the grille opening.
A truly innovative feature on the 1968 Mustang was turn signal indicators integrated into the car’s hood. Other changes for 1968 included the introduction of a new GT Mustang emblem, GT hub caps, and quad exhaust tips on the V-8 powered GT Mustang. As for features, the Mustang included Selectshift Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission and AM/FM radio. Other standards included bucket seats with options such as hood racing stripes, pop-open gas cap, overhead console, and a new 302 engine capable of producing 230 hp.
The 1968 Mustang also featured a new two-spoke energy-absorbing steering wheel along with federally mandated shoulder belts. No doubt, the 1968 Mustang was designed to be safer than previous models, both inside and out.
This wonderful Pony drop-top is shown in Candy Apple Red exterior with a gorgeous saddle bucket interior. The entire exterior has been stripped down, and has been professionally repainted.
The interior looks amazing. From the carpet to the top; this Mustang shows extremely well whether you are cruising down the road, or sitting still at a car show.
The Ford 200 cu in V6 is very strong, and starts and runs without any hesitations. The engine bay is very clean, and would make any new owner proud to open it up and show it off! The automatic transmission shifts perfectly through the gears with no hesitation or slipping.
From front to back; this convertible Mustang shows and performs very well. This is a 100% turn-key car that needs nothing but a new owner!
