This Ford Mustang 1967-1968 got away, but there are more like it here.

This 1968 Ford Mustang GT coupe was delivered new to Palmer Ford Inc. of Hyattsville, Maryland, and spent time in Texas prior to the seller’s acquisition in 2012. The car is finished in maroon over a reupholstered black vinyl interior, and it is powered by a replacement 390ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission. Additional features include the GT Equipment Group, the Interior Decor Group, 14″ wheels with GT hubcaps, power-assisted front disc brakes, front bucket seats, a Hurst shifter, a COMP Cams camshaft, and quad exhaust outlets. Service during current ownership included overhauling the suspension and braking systems, installing an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, and fitting a Pertronix electronic ignition system and coil. This Mustang GT is now offered with partial service records, a car cover, a Deluxe Marti report, and a Pennsylvania title in the seller’s name.
