Description
Under the hood of this 1968 Mustang Fastback lies a fully rebuilt, numbers-matching 428 cubic inch Cobra Jet V8 engine, a cornerstone of Ford's high-performance history. The engine has been bored .030" over and fitted with new pistons, bearings, and valves for enhanced strength and reliability. A performance camshaft optimizes airflow and engine dynamics, while fuel is delivered through a period-correct fuel pump and a December 1967–dated 4-barrel carburetor, ensuring both historical authenticity and strong performance. Power is transferred through a numbers-matching 4-speed manual transmission, paired with a heavy-duty clutch and pressure plate for smooth, dependable gear engagement under power.

The exterior is refinished in Wimbledon White, staying faithful to the original look while asserting an aggressive presence. The car features flared rear wheel arches to accommodate wider tires, nodding to its racing heritage. It sits on staggered 15" chromed steel wheels, wrapped in high-performance tires, offering an aggressive yet balanced stance. Braking is handled by mechanical drum brakes at all four corners, offering direct, raw feedback.

Inside, the cabin is purely functional, with factory-style black vinyl bucket seats up front and a folding rear bench. A two-spoke steering wheel is mounted in front of essential temperature gauges, with an additional gauge pod beneath the dash to monitor oil pressure, water temperature, and electrical system performance. The interior focuses purely on the driving experience, with no frills.

Underneath, the car features a durable 3.50:1 rear end, reinforced with upgraded axles for added strength. The dual exhaust system includes factory Cobra Jet exhaust manifolds, an H-pipe, and performance mufflers, creating a deep and aggressive exhaust note that announces the car's intentions. Drum brakes and the Toploader transmission complete the underbody setup, preserving its original mechanical character.

This Mustang doesn't just represent its heritage—it embodies it. Every aspect, from its drivetrain to its stance, is crafted for pure, unrelenting performance, staying true to the muscle car ethos.
