Acapulco Blue Beauty

:
You are bidding on a beautiful Acapulco Blue 1967 Ford Mustang Convertible. This car has not been "restored", rather it has been maintained and upgraded over it's lifetime with an emphasis on safety and comfort.
The car is equipped with a 289 V-8 4 Barrel with a C-4 Automatic Transmission. It retains its original powertrain. The Engine, Transmission and Rear Axle have all been rebuilt with fewer than 15,000 miles on any of the components. The rear axle received all new pinion and carrier bearings, axle bearings and seals, including universal joints. The Transmission received a new Torque Converter, rebuild kit with clutch packs and sealsand a performance Shift Kit.
The engine features an Edelbrock "Power Pack" which consists of a high performance "Performer"' Cam and Lifters, new push rods and an Edelbrock "Performer" high performance Aluminum Intake Manifold and a "Performer" 600 Four Barrel Carburetor with electric choke. It also features an aluminum performance water pump, and heavy duty battery.The oil pan is a Milodon Performance baffled unit and the heads are topped off by polished aluminum Shelby Cobra Valve Covers. Theincoming air isfiltered by a Cobra Air Cleaner. The exhaust exits through a custom welded Flowmaster Dual Exhaust System. The engine has run Mobil 1 Synthetic 15 w/50 racing oil exclusively from since engine work was completed.
This car features Power Steering, with new p/s pump and hoses. The front suspension has been rebuilt with new ball joints and tie rod ends. The car was upgraded with Stainless Steel Brakes (SSBC) Four Piston Power Disc Brakes, featuring 14" slotted rotors and braided stainless steel brake lines. The brake upgrade included all new wheel bearings and hubs/rotors. This expensive upgrade improved the braking performance dramatically allowing one to drive this car in modern heavy traffic with confidence. The suspension is controlled by Gas Charged shocks in the front and Air Adjustable shocks in the rear.
The car features a new Classic Auto Air in dash R-134a HVAC system. This is an all new assembly that includes a heater core, condenser, evaporator, all hoses, controls and a polished compressor. Both the heat and A/C functions are far superior to the original equipment. The Cooling System has been upgraded with a "Be Cool" Modular Aluminum Radiator/Fan assembly with thermostatically controlled cooling fans, including an on-demand auxiliary fan during A/C operation. This radiator module ensures no issues with overheating regardless of ambient conditions. The car has a new fuel tank, trunk mat, new spare tire, with cover, jack kit with bag, and convertible top boot bag.
The beautiful interior features all new upholstery, including seat buns, quarters, carpeting, dash pad, door panels, convertible top boot, floor mats and matching removable center console. The car features a Pioneer AM/FM MP3/CD Satellite ready radio with remote control, 4 Pioneer/Sony Speakers and trunk mounted remote amplifier. The rear speakers are housed in removable carpeted enclosures, (no holes were cut in car). The stereo sounds great and performs loud and clear with the top down at freeway speeds. The cockpit is topped off by a stunning Corso Feroce 15" hand rubbed wood Shelby GT-350 Steering Wheel, and finally by an authentic Carroll Shelby Signature on the right Dash Panel.
The exterior features two stage color coat/clear coat Acapulco Blue finish with Wimbledon White Shelby Rally Stripes. This beautiful Mustang also is equipped with a black power convertible top with a folding glass rear window. The car features the 1967 only GTA Package, including GT Fog lights and grille work with factory wiring harness, disc brakes, GTA badging and pop-open GT Gas Cap. The car is not an original GTA but was upgraded with all Factory GTA included features. The exterior also features the lighting decor package that includes bright trim around tail lamps, trunk lid, wheel wells and vented hood with turn signal indicators. Finally the car rides on 16" X 8" "Torque Thrust" wheels shod with Goodyear Eagles.
Vehicle Condition:I am trying to represent this car as accurately as possible and in no way represent it as perfect or restored. It is after all a nearly 50 year old car. That said, overall it is very presentable, the paint is very glossy and the interior is nearly new looking. The Windshield has been replaced with a correct Ford "Carlite" replacement with sunshade strip, and all other glass is in good condition. The floors are solid as are the frame rails and torque boxes.
As I said before the car is not perfect, but it looks great, the engine runs great, drives, shifts, and stops great, and the Flowmasters sound awesome. This iconic convertible looks amazing and turns heads always, whether parked or on the move.
