"In mid-February 1968, the California Ford Dealers (Ford Dealer Advertising Fund) began to market a factory-built, limited-edition Mustang, called the GT/CS, or "California Special". The hope was for a targeted production run of 5,000; however, only 4118 were made, including 251 units that were remarketed in Denver, Colorado, as "High Country Special '68". Production ran for only 5.5 months from mid-February 1968 to early August 1968. Today, classic car collectors consider these cars to be very desirable." - Wikipedia This...1968 Ford Mustang GT/CS was built in San Jose, California on February 29, 1968. It was then delivered to McCoy & Mills Ford in Fullerton, California, that is still in business today. This car has the original window sticker and in 2013 received an "Elite Marti Report" to confirm the vehicles production information. A full restoration has been performed to bring the "California Special" to original condition. With a 289ci V8 motor and a Meadowlark Yellow paint this car is desirable to all Mustang fans. Made with power steering, power disc brakes, and air conditioning this car has been comfortable since production. The automatic cruise-o-matic transmission and motor have been rebuilt and perform well. The body is perfectly aligned and has no noticeable paint damage. The interior is also properly restored down to the AM radio. We highly recommend any interested buyers come take a look at this historical car.
