By modern standards it isn't a very fast and the brakes are about as effective as sponges rubbing on the axle, but it is still wonderful. The handling feels solid and direct (no power-steering), the engine is always ready to play, and the hood stretching out in front gives an amazing sense of theater and occasion. It required lots of electrical work initially, but once everything important was replaced, it hasn't broken down since. The interior is simple, sparse, and a bit worn, of course, but there are hundreds of aftermarket parts to make things more interesting. The steering wheel is made of high quality wood (it even has finger notches!) and makes something as mundane as turning the wheel an experience of old school quality. When it comes to looks, the 67 Mustang is completely unmatched in my opinion. It manages to be elegant, muscular, and menacing at the same time. From inside the car, you get a sense of focus and occasion from the simplicity of it. This car isn't strong on gas mileage, but what do you expect from an old American V8? Between the way it feels to drive and the fact that you want to walk backwards after getting out to look at it a bit longer, this car is fantastic.

Absolute head turner. She is a Ford but in a completely different class. Legendary 302 engine. Great for cruising or or weekend car. Fun at the track and has a huge following. Air shocks are in mine and I have been told how great of a ride she gives. Complements will come all day. Side exhaust ftw!

This car was resurrected from a Florida boneyard 12 years ago. After a great deal of cash, blood, sweat, tears, and more than a few curse words - it lives again. 1967 was the first year the Mustang was redesigned. It was lengthed and widened specifically to fit a big block engine. The 390 was the first to be dropped into these cars, followed by the 427,428, and 429 in the years that followed. This car has the 390 with a FoMoCo aluminum tripower intake and three Holley two barrel mechanically engaged carbs, power front disc brakes, power steering, and the turn signal hood. Handling is phenominal - in a straight line. With that big chunk of iron under the hood, cornering and stopping are challenging. Reliability and gas mileage are both wishful dreams, but that's the nature of these beasts. It's a head turner. Expect to spend a great deal of time at the pumps. Almost every time, someone will wander over with a story about theirs or their parents old Mustang/Camaro/whatever. That's what these cars are all about - enjoyment and camaraderie.
