Yea, my dad had a 68 GT when they were fresh off the production line, he wrecked it ofcourse and found this 1 about 20 years ago, he daily drove it and got to the condition it is in today, it fires right up, and sounds beastily, my dad told me how when he first got the car he would always run into fox bodies looking to redlight race, and he'd blow them all off every time.
Never known what it would do at a track though, and thats sort of the direction we want to push the car.
Have fun going to car shows in it, take it down the track afew times a month and just a "go fast" way to it.
As a little kid my dad used to do burnouts in second gear with me in the rear seat giggling as the front end lifted off the ground.
So its that, father and son project for being a badass car, its why we didnt sell it.
Thought as a daily driver, its got front disc breaks, power breaks, power steering A/C everything from overhead lights ext from the factory. deluxe interior all original.
Me and my dad just finished the restoration of a 64.5 Mustang and its my daily driver right now, with a 260 v8 all original to it aswell.
We dont know what we plan todo to the car, but we thought of many things from keeping the 351c to getting a 390, porting some nice heads, flat top pistols port and polish ext everything to build a beast with what we already got.
The 68 is just my childhood dream car, and I hope to keep it till my own kids can ride in the back as I smoke some tires.
