For Sale: 1968 Ford Mustang in Groveland, California for sale in Groveland, CA
Vehicle Description This Mustang has been in one family since it was bought new in Champagne, IL upon college graduation and before heading to graduate school at UC Berkeley.
With an MBA he was hired as an instructor by College of Alameda, where he and the car have been until a year ago it was given to his nephew.
Virtually the entire life of this car has been under a carport with a car cover.
The only recent work done on the car was mechanical repairs and tuning to make it road worthy.
Receipts are available totaling about $5,600.
The 1968 Mustang was little changed on the outside from it 1967 counterpart apart from the obvious side reflectors that were now mandated.
Most of the changes were in subtle refinements to the interior and exterior.
Cosmetically they had different simulated side scoops.
The 1968 scoop looked more like a vertical C whereas the 1967 looked like air intake openings.
Other changes included the deletion of the horizontal grille bars.
The grille featured a running Mustang inside a corral in the center of the grille.
There was also the deletion of the F-O-R-D letters at the front of the hood, simplification of the quarter panel ornament, and many safety features (increasing governmental regulations).
New options for '68 included an AM/FM stereo radio, rear window defogger (coupe and fastback only) and re-designed front power disc brakes.
The interior also received a shock absorbing steering column, fold down door handles and more comfortable seats.
The 289 cubic inch 2-bbl.
V8 engine was installed in the 1968 Mustangs up until December of 1967, then it was replaced with the 302 cubic inch 2-bbl.

The miles showing for this Mustang may be original, as the owner (now 81) rarely left Alameda Island and the car sat for a number of years, started periodically to keep the battery and fluids active.
We know of no accident history.
This Mustang, with new tires, can be used as-is:
from 20 feet it's an attractive car; the interior is especially good.
It is a great candidate for restoration as it has relatively little surface rust, and no serious rust.
The combination of colors is striking and apparently rare (articles have been written about turquoise Mustangs).
The car has just been professionally appraised at $15,500 - we offer it at $14,500.
It can be seen by appointment only in our display warehouse in Lockeford, near Lodi, CA (40 minutes from Sacramento, 45 from Modesto, and 75 from Oakland).
