This 1968 Ford Mustang C-Code V8 Fastback has undergone a significant restoration process inside and out. Great attention has been given to restoring this Fastback Stang to a high standard, blending vintage muscle car aesthetics with enhanced driving performance all round.
Fastback Design
The 1968 Mustang Fastback was a popular model among enthusiasts, particularly in its fastback form. Equipped with the lighter weight 302 Windsor V8, the C-Code offered a balance of performance and drivability, making it a sought-after choice for buyers looking for a blend of power and everyday usability.
The fastback design became an icon of American muscle cars, famously featured in movies and cementing its place in automotive history. With its aggressive styling, sloping roofline, and impressive road presence, the 1968 Mustang fastback remains a highly desirable classic.
Mechanical Enhancements
This Mustang is powered by a 302 Windsor V8, which has been rebuilt and fitted with mild performance upgrades, including a warm cam, Weiand intake manifold and a Holley 4-barrel carburettor. The car is equipped with a C10 automatic transmission, offering reliable power delivery. Power is sent to a 3.25:1 LSD 9" differential for excellent strength.
Braking and Suspension
The vehicle is fitted with Four-Wheel Disc brakes, accompanied by a new brake booster. A brand-new Borgeson power steering box has been fitted for precise steering, enhancing the overall driving experience. The front and rear suspension have been renewed with Koni shocks, providing a responsive and stable ride. The exhaust system includes a 2 ¼-inch setup, giving the car a signature V8 sound.
Refreshed Interior
Inside, the car features a nicely renewed interior, including seats, door trims, carpet, dash and headlining, with a fold-down rear seat and deluxe console. The gauges and wiring have been updated from front to rear for added reliability.
Exterior Restoration
Finished in Ford Shockwave Blue, this Fastback presents a standout look. The bodywork has undergone extensive restoration, including work on the intake plenum, frame rails, and torque boxes for a corrosion free car. The interior panels have been rust-proofed and cavity-waxed. A GT hood with working blinkers is fitted for a period-correct appearance. The car sits on 17x8" Eleanor Halibrand style wheels, complementing its classic muscle car stance.
Ready for Enjoyment
Significant work has been completed to restore this Mustang as a reliable current day driver. It represents an exciting opportunity to own a well-restored muscle car with all restoration work already completed.
