This beautiful 68 Stang has been treated to a frame off restoration back in 2009. The car was repainted in Dupont Ford Race Red back in May of 2015 (we have color codes) by Brock Collision in Houston, TX and it shows very well. The cars exterior bumpers, trim, emblems, & glass are all in great condition. The rear of the car features a Shelby GT/CS fiberglass trunk with a ducktail spoiler. Powering this restomod is a 302 CID V8 that is out of a 91 Mustang that was professionally rebuilt with forged internals & aluminum heads back in 2014. The engine runs extremely strong and begs to revved, & really you should hear this thing rumble for yourself. The thirsty V8 is coupled to a World Class Tremec T5 5-speed manual transmission that shifts effortlessly into each gear. The Tremec T5 spins 4.11 gears within a 9-inch rear end. With those two barely broken in drivetrain components this car has many years of road ahead of it. The car features a new black vinyl interior to is in fantastic condition with little to no evidence of wear. The door panels are custom color matched painted for a nice custom look. The carpet, headliner, & dash follow in the same fashion and look great. On the steering column is a custom shift light with RPM readout & a custom hurst shifter on the floor. The car sits on very nice 15-inch Weld racing wheels that are wrapped in Cooper Cobra tires that are like new with plenty of tread left on them. The car has a full book of receipts from the owner from when it was restored until we received it. The car drives extremely well and it is a pure blast to drive.
