1967 Mustang Survivor!  

For your consideration is a true survivor ’67 Mustang V-8 Auto.  Its interesting to see how the classic car community has pivoted a bit over the past 10 or so years. Once the most desirable collector car to have was that fully restored perfect car that should live in a protective bubble to maintain its perfection.  Now the people want to actually have an investment and use it too.  Barn finds, garage finds and survivors are really heating up the current market.  This is happening for a few reasons.  One being that they are only original once, the story that comes with the car and the other is usability (this car checks all of those boxes by the way).   What is a survivor?  A survivor is a largely original or unrestored car.  Usually a car with an original drive train, original interior, and over 75% of its original paint.  There’s [...]

For your consideration is rare 1968 Ford XL Convertible.  Some call this the Galaxie 500 but the XL was its own model from Ford.  A level higher than the Ford Galaxie.  This rare and collectible full size ford is a great car to either drive and fix up, or a wonderful start for your full restoration dream!  This car is running and driving.  While it needs some cosmetic attention and maintenance, it can be driven.  We would advice some basic service before using it on the street for reasons such as old tires and very loud exhaust.   It has been driven 15 miles in the past few weeks.

Exterior:

Repainted to original 1951 Mercury color, the paint is in good shape.  Its not perfect but in very good shape.  There are some blemishes in the paint but it will still hang with the cars at your local cruise.  The paint appears to be a modern base/clear coat. There are no evidence of rust issues, major rust repair or accidents.  The car is straight and true.  Stainless steel trim, chrome, handles, bumpers and exterior emblems are in fantastic shape.  The glass is in great shape and the windows go up and down as they should.  Hood, doors, trunk all open and close as they should.
