SELLER REMARKS

When is a Shelby not a Shelby? When it's this 1968 GT with a 428 Cobra Jet transplant. Even with the engine swap. this is a special car. as it is a real-deal S-code 390/4-speed GT in its original colors. The fact that it's even faster than it was new is kind of relevant. because going fast is entirely the point.


Wearing gorgeous code D Acapulco Blue as original. this is sure to be another in a long line of early Mustang fastbacks that arrive and then sell almost as quickly as we can photograph them. And it's really no surprise. since this super-straight southern car has a lot of good stuff going for it. The first. the bodywork is straight and beautifully finished. It was restored a few years ago. but has a great patina now that suites vintage Mustangs just fine. and with the white C-stripe. you know this one is something special. GT emblems. fog lamps. and a special gas cap are the only major indicators that this is a desirable GT model. and it's documented thanks to a Marti Report. The chrome bumpers. stainless trim. and other bright pieces look great. too.


Just like the door tag and Marti Report say. this Mustang also packs a black standard bucket seat interior. and looking at the options list. it would appear that it was built for just one purpose: speed. That would explain the lack of a weight-adding center console and the addition of items like the auxiliary gauges under the dash. A small-diameter steering wheel accentuates the agile handling and the Hurst shifter with cue ball knob falls naturally into your palm when you slide behind the wheel. making it hard to not feel like Steve McQueen every time you turn the key and the big 428 barks to life. Fresh carpets and door panels add to the new feel inside and while you probably won't use it often. there's even an AM/FM/cassette stereo in the dash. The trunk is filled with a new reproduction mat. full-sized spare on a matching fifth styled steel wheel. and an amplifier for the stereo.


Somewhere along the line. somebody decided that an S-code 390 just wasn't adequate. and transplanted a complete 428 Cobra Jet. reputedly from a Shelby GT500. into this Mustang's engine bay. Topped with an aluminum intake and a Holley double-pumper. along with Ford Blue paint. a chrome air cleaner and finned Cobra valve covers. it still looks quite factory and few will be the wiser when they glance it under the hood. MSD supplied the ignition system which hides in plain sight. A 4-speed manual transmission and a 9-inch rear with a Track-Lok limited slip differential are more evidence that this car was built to run hard and fast (with all that torque. tall gears are just a shortcut to expensive tire smoke). Clean floors. a new exhaust system with resonators and a correct transverse muffler. a fresh gas tank. and new shocks all around mean that this pony is ready to rock right now. Correct GT styled steel wheels are a nice addition and look right on the early Mustang. even wearing modern 235/60/14 Goodyear radials.


Beauty and the beast all in one little Mustang. Beautifully finished and wickedly fast. this is the Mustang you've always dreamed about. Call now!
