1968 Ford Mustang Coupe
This is a complete restoration project beginning with a full frame-off media blast. The entire uni-body was then Arma Coated from the firewall to the rear roll pan. The factory front clip, doors, rocker panels and roof were rust and damage free and remain intact. The rear quarters were replaced along with the deck lid and inner fenders. The hood is a 67 Shelby from Tony D. Branda with matching springs and associated hardware. The body is very high quality with extensive gapping detail. The paint is Diamont Extreme in Ocean color with ghost rally strips. The original side glass is still intact. All weather stripping has been replaced along with the windshield and both bumpers. The entire suspension system has been replaced including control arms, springs, steering components, sway bars and bushings. Export Brace and Monte Carlo Bar from Tony D. Branda. The wheels are 17" Polished Bullitt's with Nitto tires. The Interior has been entirely replaced with O.E. style materials from the carpet to the headliner, including full Dynomat. The instrument panel is from Dakota Digital. Engine tuning was done at MAC Autosport in Parker CO. Dyno sheets show 407 HP and 441 Ft. Lbs. at the wheels using a safer break in tune.

I think I've hit most of the high points. There are simply too many parts and details to list here. In general, I would consider the car to be an 8 out of 10. In my opinion, the only real 10's are the ones that never get driven. This one has been driven and there are a few minor defects from general use. I only drive it in nice weather. There are no major paint defects or chips. There is however a fair amount of rubber built up in the rear wheel wells for some unknown reason. I built this car to have fun with and it has been just that for me. I have decided to sell it to move on to the next project. I'm sure I have forgotten quite a few things here, but feel free to call or write if you have any questions. The pictures aren't the greatest either, but I would be happy to send more specific ones at your request.
