Description for Ford Mustang 1968

1968 Ford Mustang GT Coupe, Factory V8 Automatic. Please see the Marti Report in photos to confirm the facts regarding the authenticity of the car. The original car color is Gulfstream Blue with a Black interior.
Listing for a friend who has had much of the restoration work already completed. He has owned this car for many years and is relocating out of state and would prefer to sell the car before he moves. He has already replaced both quarter panels. The original floors are in great condition and the car has been sanded down, primed and is just about ready for paint. Doors and hood, trunk are loose bolted only and require final adjustment. Body is in great shape, very solid. All new suspension parts installed, gas shocks, springs, bushings brakes, brake lines, master cylinder, sway bar. Also includes full interior, front and rear seats, console and all interior and exterior trim pieces. Also includes side glass with door parts, regulators etc. Engine compartment is all refinished in satin black paint. Please see all photos.
V-8 car with Automatic transmission. Includes many new parts, interior seat covers,new headliner, dual exhaust system. Has a stock V-8 engine, (302) same "year code" but not original to the car. Also has the original automatic transmission. Both are ready for rebuild, or upgrade this beauty and build the "Ultimate Pro Touring Ride". This was a running driving complete car when the restoration had started, downsizing to a smaller place and no room for storage.
VIN Tag (on Passenger side dashboard reads): 8T01J143741, my understanding is 8 denotes 1968, T = Metuchen, NJ Mfg. Plant, 01 = 2 Door Hardtop, J= Optional 230 HP, 302 C.I. With 4 Barrel carb. I am not an expert but thought this information may be helpful to verify the origins of the vehicle.
This is a project car that needs finishing, it is also a great investment as the value of these cars has been steadily increasing over the years. Engine and transmission are not installed but will be included in the sale. Many additional parts (new and used) will be included as well. Sale includes new replacement interior seat covers, headliner, carpets, door panels, gas tank and sending unit, steel lines and hoses. If you have any specific questions, I will be glad to get you the answers. If you would like to see the car prior to bidding, I am available most of the time.
I am open to reasonable offers as it is my full intention to sell this car. Reserve price has been lowered.
Thanks for looking and Best Wishes, Richard !
