This 1967 Ford Mustang coupe was acquired by the seller in 2011 and has since undergone two refurbishments, with the latest iteration completed around 2023. This beautifully modified Mustang combines classic style with modern performance upgrades, making it a standout example of a vintage muscle car enhanced for today’s driving.
### Exterior and Bodywork
The Mustang’s exterior features a striking blue vinyl wrap complemented by a custom grille, modern headlights, a hood scoop, and hood pins. The body incorporates a Maier Shelby-style hood with scoop and pins, while the bumpers are painted black with replaced weather seals. Originally painted in Acapulco Blue Metallic with a white stripe during the 2014-2015 refurbishment, the car’s original hood (painted to match the Acapulco Blue) is included and displayed in the gallery.
Metal fender flares add to its aggressive stance, and under the vinyl wrap lies meticulous bodywork including a replacement cowl and right-rear quarter panel. Reinforcement panels in the shock towers and rear floor, along with internal frame coating and chassis saver material, ensure durability. Suspension pick-up points have been stitch-welded for added strength.
### Suspension and Wheels
This Mustang rides on American Racing 18″ Torq Thrust II wheels, wrapped in Falken Azenis tires sized 275/35 in front and 315/30 in the rear. Suspension modifications include:
**Front Suspension:**
– Mike Maier MOD1 coilover assembly
– Tubular control arms
– Single-adjustable JRi shocks
– 500 lb-in springs
– 1970-73 front spindles
– DRP Performance pre-load bearings
– Mike Maier MOD shock tower brace
– Mike Maier power steering box and pump
**Rear Suspension:**
– Mike Maier MOD leaf spring kit
– Mike Maier MOD Panhard bar
– Bilstein shocks
– Mike Maier MOD subframe connectors
– Mike Maier MOD X-frame connector
Wilwood six-piston calipers in front and four-piston calipers in the rear provide strong stopping power.
### Interior and Safety
Inside, the Mustang is fitted with Corbeau RRX bucket seats mounted on later-model pans for increased headroom. A half cage extends to the rear frame rails, adding both safety and chassis stiffness. Additional interior upgrades include:
– MOMO Prototipo steering wheel mounted on an Ididit column
– Hurst shifter
– Three-point seat belts
– TMI molded headliner
– Restored dashboard panels and rear seat
– Insulation installed beneath replacement carpeting
The gauges are focused and functional, featuring a 120-mph speedometer and auxiliary readouts for fuel level, oil pressure, coolant temperature, and voltage. The odometer shows approximately 89,000 miles; however, the seller notes this is not accurate, having driven the car around 2,500 miles since acquisition. Notably, no radio is installed.
### Powertrain and Mechanical Upgrades
Under the hood, the Mustang is powered by a built 302ci V8 engine based on a ’68 Mexico block. Key engine components include:
– Trick Flow Twisted Wedge cylinder heads
– Holley Terminator-X Stealth 4150 EFI system and ignition kit
– High-flow fuel pump
– Ford Performance water pump
– Canton oil pan
– CVF Racing billet V-pulley kit
– Coated tubular headers linked to a dual exhaust system with Borla mufflers
Fuel delivery is managed by dual inline Holley Dominator fuel pumps, an Aeromotive fuel regulator, and braided fuel lines. The fuel cell is mounted between the rear frame rails, while the battery has been relocated to the trunk along with chassis braces and upgraded wiring featuring dual battery circuit breakers.
Cooling is handled by a Wizard Cooling radiator with dual brushless fans controlled by a SPAL wiring kit.
### Transmission and Drivetrain
The engine is paired with a Tremec TKO five-speed manual transmission, featuring a hydraulic clutch with Kevlar disc, Quicktime bell housing, and a Modern Driveline cross member. Power flows through an aluminum driveshaft to a nodular 9″ rear end equipped with an Eaton Detroit Truetrac limited-slip differential, Timken bearings, GearFX yoke, and 31-spline axles.
### Restoration History
– **2012-2014:** The car was completely disassembled, soda-blasted, and repaired, including the installation of a replacement cowl and right-rear quarter panel. Reinforcements were added, and the chassis and suspension received significant upgrades.
– **2014-2015:** Additional modifications included the installation of a half cage, metal fender flares, and fresh paintwork in Acapulco Blue Metallic with a white stripe.
### Documentation and Title
This modified 1967 Ford Mustang coupe is offered with extensive records documenting the refurbishment process. It holds a clean Colorado title in the seller’s name.
