1968 Ford Mustang coupe black plate california car with a difference<br />
<br />
Imported from California October 2014 and has been dry stored since. Upon arrival to england the car was running a fuel injected 5.0 small block mated with a Tremec 5 speed manual transmission. After inspection I decided to remove the fuel injection due to how badly it had been fitted and now has been setup on carb.<br />

Fitted with new 3 point seat belts<br />
new Hurst shifter and gaitor<br />
New Lockar tunnel mounted hand brake setup which was the best way to hook up with the rear end<br />
<br />
Exterior<br />
<br />
Both doors had bubbling at the bottom corners so have had the corners cut out and new metal welded in<br />
The sills in the past had been fitted with covers and were not with it when it arrived so all the clips have been removed and welded up<br />
front passenger side floor section has been professionally cut out and new sheet metal fully welded in and sealed<br />
Under neath has been treated with underbody seal.<br />
front wings were removed cleaned and painted with 3m shultz along with inner sheet metal<br />
The front lower valance has a dent in it on the passenger side<br />
Body wise it is straight with chips in the paint work and premiered areas as per the pictures<br />
<br />
I purchased the car with a view to it being an on going project and with having a lot of mechanical work done it drives well and starts every time and is useable<br />

Genuine reason for sale, stupid emails, texts and offers will be ignored. Located in south manchester<br />
