This is a relist and I will be selling this car with a 428 CJ engine, C6 Transmission, an aluminum drive shaft and a 9 inch rear axle, with a new 3.50 gear. It didn’t sell and I figure I may have priced it too high, because of what I had invested in the engine itself and noted that I was pulling the engine and transmission after it sells, but then I have an engine or transmission sitting in my garage, without a car. If anyone wants to see the engine details, I will send them a copy of it. The engine is a 1972 truck 361 block, bored out and built as a 428 CJ, with 428 CJ heads and early 1968 428 CJ exhaust manifolds. Mileage: 81,350, although I am not sure if this is the correct mileage, as I am not the original owner. I have the factory build sheet and Marti Auto Works Deluxe report and the Marti Report shows this car was ordered on 11/05/1968 and built on 11/25/1968 at the San Jose plant. The VIN number is 9R01F125428 and I have the clear title for the car. This 1969 Mustang Hardtop Coupe was ordered with a 302-2V engine, Meadowlark Yellow exterior, with Light Nugget Gold Kiwi Vinyl standard bucket seats, 2.79 axle ratio and a C 4 Select shift Cruse-O-Matic transmission. It was also ordered with E78 x 14 white sidewall tires, power steering and an AM radio. It also has tinted glass-complete, Sports Appearance Group – no tape stripes, color keyed racing mirrors, hood scoop and wheel covers. This 1969 Mustang Hardtop Coupe body is 100% rust free original sheet metal, under an 18 year old coat of primer and with a bondo free body. I didn’t do any body work, so there are a few small dings on the right side, nothing major. I have added some things to the car, while I was going crazy buying things. The front sway bar, front coil springs and complete front suspension components have been replaced. I added sub frame connectors to the underside. I replaced the leaf springs and the rear sway bar, I installed a Flaming River rack and pinion steering conversion kit and added a Stainless Steel Corp., Disc Brake conversion kit, which includes slotted Stainless rotors and also installed new larger rear drum brakes complete. I removed the 8 inch rear end axle assembly and installed a 9 inch rear axle assembly, removed from a big block Mustang, and had our local speed shop install a new 3.50 ring and pinion in it. I removed the original 302 engine, C4 transmission, but I still have the original drive shaft Now for what’s not on the car, that will come along with the car. I have over forty boxes, each identified with a number on the box and for the most part, what's in the box as well. I also took inventory of the parts in the boxes and that will help you locate everything. Most of the parts are the original parts or replacement original Ford parts, pieces, wiring looms, trim, glass, that came off of the car. The hardware that held the parts on or together are in ziplock bags, in the box with the parts, along with a paper in the bag identifying what they go to. I don’t have either bumper, but do have the brackets. I have the complete set of original glass from the car, also. A new gas tank is installed and I have new Stainless Steel tubing for the gas line and complete stainless brake lines and trans lines, which aren’t installed yet. I have a collection of other extra parts that will go with the car, along with five original Ford chrome GT wheels, trim rings and center caps and an original 1969 GT pop open gas cap. Most of the interior needs to be restored. The two front seat frames are good, but will need new padding and covers. The rear seat is fine and both right and left interior side panels are good but will need to be painted. The dash isn’t installed, but was media blasted and powder coated along with the glove box door. I don’t have any of the interior that will need to be replaced. It will need new carpeting, padding, headliner and interior door panels, but included are the headliner rods. I am including a complete set of matching wood grained, dark walnut, instrument cluster, clock and clock panel, the right and left door, deluxe wood trim panels and moldings, and both rear quarter trim panels from a 1969 Mustang Grande. Please read the additional sheet attached with the photos for more information. My loss is your gain, because at my age I don’t see myself finishing this project. Good luck bidding. |
