Description

Factory Options: Power Steering, Power Disc Front Brakes, Upgraded Engine, Rally Upgrades, We have sold Ann Wynn”s beautiful 1968 Classic Ford Mustang several times here at Pilgrim V8 and are delighted to offer this car for sale again. This car was built in the San Jose Ford plant in California and came off the production line on the 18th of December 1967 and then delivered locally early in 1968. This car is a “black plate “Californian car. This indicates that it has spent its whole life registered in California and has retained its original black registration plate. This also shows low ownership as a black plate in its self is a wanted item. As can be seen in the photographs., Mr and Mrs Wynn owned the car for some 28 years living in Chatsworth a very affluent part of North Los Angeles and as she described it became “part of their family.” We purchased the Mustang from Ann at her home here in Chatsworth. Unfortunately, Mrs Wynn had been widowed several years previously and Mr Wynn returned the Mustang to its former glory. She undertook the task of getting the car restored along with her family. The result we see here today., When the car was new, it left the Factory in 1967 it was originally Candy Apple Red with black Everflex roof and Dark Red Crinkle seats. During the restoration, it was decided to keep the colour scheme original. So, a new interior was purchased from headlining down to the floor carpets. The coachwork was also stripped to bare metal and a high-quality repaint in Candy Apple was applied. (some photographic evidence available) Evidence shows the condition of the body before repainting, no corrosion whatsoever, shows a very straight body but the original paint had faded some over the years in the Californian sunshine., The engine is the original c code optional 195hp 289 V8, this engine was totally rebuilt with better heads, mild cam, Cobra valve covers and air cleaner, high rise manifold, new Thorley headers and a great sounding new exhaust system installed. The four-speed manual transmission was also rebuilt including the addition , Good bodywork, Interior - Good Condition, Tyre condition Good, Solid Red, Mustang modern and classic V8 specialists, £39,950, This is an imported vehicle
