How The 1967-1968 Ford Mustang Made The Mustang A Legend

The 1964 1/2-1966 Ford Mustang may have started the Mustang phenomenon but it was the 1967-1968 Mustang that made the Mustang a legend. Watch the video to find out why.

[@nekoprincess7489]

I love the fastback design of the 1967 - '68 Mustang. It's such a sleek, sporty looking car

[@dukecraig2402]

Both fastbacks used to film the movie Bullitt have surfaced in the past couple of years, the beauty car was always known to have survived but it's location was a secret because the family that had it since 77 or so didn't want to be bothered about it, what's really exciting is that about the same time the stunt car that was thought to have been put through a crusher after filming completed was discovered sitting in the desert in Mexico.🤸‍♂️🤸‍♂️🤸‍♂️(can you tell I'm excited about it?)

[@mountainbikelife2526]

Awesome I love that movie

[@dukecraig2402]

@danbau08 Yea, it was located in the desert in Mexico by a guy who bought it and was going to have it turned into an "Eleanor" replica, fortunately he had the car researched and found out what it really was. Max Balchowsky, the man who prepped the two Mustang's and three Charger's for the movie (along with many other famous movie cars) bought them after filming was completed, the stunt Mustang was beat up pretty bad so he sold it to a scrapyard and everyone always assumed it was crushed, turns out they sold it to a Mexican scrap dealer and it wound up sitting in the desert down there until it was found by the guy who has it now, what a story ain't it? For an even more incredible story look up online and on KZbin the story of Max Balchowsky and his home built racer car Old Yeller II, "the junkyard dog that beat the world", it sent every high end European sports car like Ferrari's, Maserati Birdcage's and everything else throw at it back across the Atlantic with their tails between their legs, it'll make you proud to be an American.

[@Colorado_Native]

The Sketch Monkey on KZbin comented how much he loved the design when he updated that model.

[@kingerikthegreatest.ofall.7860]

One of the best looking cars ever.

[@TheMrPeteChannel]

@Poriferan Roblox The director of Dodge thought the Charger was in his words...."This is the ugliest car I have ever seen." But he also said........... "Will it win races?"

'67-'68 Mustangs are my favorite iteration of this milestone automobile. Your videos are some of the best on the internet. Thanks for producing them!

[@dukecraig2402]

Did you know that the 2nd Mustang, the "stunt car" from the classic movie Bullitt, that was thought to have been destroyed by a junkyard crusher was located in the desert in Mexico just two years ago or so? The "beauty car" was always known to be out there but was a big mystery because the family who had it didn't want bothered about it surfaced a couple of years ago but the other one turning up was a big surprise.

[@sportriderpr]

The real fast back! My favorite Mustang! 😎

[@skiprussell2606]

Best looking ford I ever had a 67 mustang Red with black interior, I paid $1,000 for it in 72. Those were the days! Gas was like 30 cents a gallon. Of course, you were lucky to make $5 an hour.

[@johncartelli]

[@johnnyblade9272]

This is the car that made me a car guy as a kid. The 67 - 68 body style is still my favorite of all the Mustang's line up. Plus both of us were introduced to the world in 1964... 😆

[@TheNortheastAl]

JOHNNY BLADE yes, at the NY World's Fair. I rode in one as a kid that ran on a rail system through the Ford exhibit.

[@BladeRunner-td8be]

In 1979 while in the Air Force, a mechanic friend had his 1967 Mustang with a 289, bored to receive racing pistons. He took me for a ride in it after he finished the upgrade. That was the first time I had ever been in a car with that much power, and I will never forget it.

[@crw3673]

Great content as usual. Is anybody else thrown back by the sales volume? They didn't make tens a thousand a year, they made hundreds a thousand a year! This is when the American auto market was great.

[@edotoole7674]

I own a beautifully restored 1967 Mustang Coupe in Lime Gold. What's cool is when I'm in traffic with a modern Mustang, the young guys know they'd blow my doors off in a race but they give me the respect. It's nice they give that "homage" to the old girl. My plan? With the kids out of the house we're paying off the mortgage in August (six years early) and next January it's a California Special convertible. It'll look good in the garage next to the '67.

Not only did the "beauty car" Mustang used to film Bullitt surface a few years ago but also the "stunt car" that was thought to have been put through a crusher after filming was discovered in the desert in Mexico about the same time, very exciting for us kids that grew up watching Bullitt in the 70's.

[@bartricky5894]

With so many Mustangs on the road I bought a '67 Cougar because it was different.. I did like the Mustangs though..

[@MikeStang2004]

That's why when you buy a mustang you customize it to your liking and to your style so it can stand out from all rest. But a cougar is ok. The was the first car my older brother bought when he was 17 back in 95.

[@dukecraig2402]

BartRicky Did you know that the sequential tail lights from the Cougar are the same ones used in the back of the Shelby Mustang's? When Shelby was given the ok to design his version of the Mustang Ford told him he had to use components that already existed so he used the Cougar's tail lights.

[@lonewolfmcquade8879]

Nice I really like the 69 Cougar Eliminateor

[@bartricky5894]

@@dukecraig2402 Thanks, I didn't know that.. I did find out they were expensive even back then..

[@Pgcmoore]

the 67 cougar was the best looking pony car ever, i loved the dark burgundy-ish red that had the black vinyl top, but i had to settle for a 66 falcon futura sports coupe with a 289, top loader 4 speed that i wish today still had, she was dark midnight blue metallic and conveyed me from age 19 to 24 and loved every mile

[@chevychevelle4146]

Ford Mustang 67 and 68 series are my favorite me personally

[@robmcgowan4034]

I like the '68 a little better, mainly because the 'scoop' behind the door was reminiscent of the '65, and the grill was cleaner.

You got THAT right. Why did mechanical works of beautiful, durable, simple to work on, steel, and rebuildable art have to be left in the past. Now we get overpriced, overbuilt, overrated, computer chipped / modules built from plastic and junk that requires diagnostic equipment that becomes obsolete faster than most people can afford to keep up with. I'll keep my '68.

[@appleiphone69]

Planned obsolescence. They want the car to last for 150k miles relatively trouble free. After that, they want the cost of repairs to be sky high and difficult (part availability)so you buy a new vehicle.

[@jwelchon2416]

It will be interesting to see what the after market comes up with. So many plastic and electrical parts that will be irreplaceable as time marches on. You won't be able to just slap a new Edlebrock carb on a 2020 Mustang coyote and be on your way.

[@maxpower5205]

You have to bear in mind that in 67, they had already sold 1.4 million Mustangs, which means there's a big % of the market for this car that had already purchased one and were not in a hurry to swap for the newer model yet, and like he said, there were other brand options. What use to be a 1 car market in 66 changed a lot in 67. Im sure some of 67 buyer were probably from the 66 waiting list :P.

[@anyhoot47]

The '68 will always be my favorite. As a kid I spent countless hours rebuilding a '68 with my brother in law. In 1980 we took two '68 Mustangs and built one. We still ended up pulling a transmission from a Cougar to complete the rebuild. My brother in law has since passed away but the memories of that car live on.

I am no big fan of Mustangs but you do this car justice and now I want to buy one. Cheers 🍻.

[@geraldscott4302]

My favorite Mustang remains the original notchback coupe design, specifically the 1967 model. I have one in bright red with a white vinyl top, white and black interior, 289/four speed, original size 1967 size wheels with original 1967 wheel covers, and whitewall tires that match the white vinyl top. It's mostly stock, the biggest modification is a dual exhaust system with glasspack mufflers, which is quite a bit louder than stock. It was not originally red, it was a medium metallic green, with no vinyl top. The original interior was a brownish color. It does not have the original engine or transmission. None of that stuff means anything to me. I found a good solid non rusted car, and built what I wanted out of it.

[@blipco5]

@@geraldscott4302 The 289/4 spd is a nice combo. Keep an eye under the vinyl roof cover as cars' roofs rusted under the vinyl. I had no idea people still used the stuff.

[@geraldscott4302]

@@blipco5 It's not used on modern cars, but vinyl tops were a big part of '60s and '70s cars. Mine was done by a professional restoration shop, and it's a lot higher quality than what came off the assembly line back then. The seams are sealed much better. I also live in AZ, where it never rains, but I wouldn't drive it in the rain anyway. It is kept in a garage, and insured as a collector car.

[@v.e.7236]

Loved my '67 Fastback Mustang! I took the 390 out and installed a 351C to shed weight and improve RPMs and road handling. With the 3.90 rear end and a M-20 trans, that car ran the quarter in just over 13 seconds - best time 13:29 @ ~115MPH. I did a lot of massaging to the internals - polished beams and crank, static balaned rods/pistons, deburred and chamfered block and oil returns and oil pump, mildly ported heads w/ three-way valve job, topped off w/ a Holley 650 carb and finished w/ 1 3/4" Hooker headers and an Isky dual profile cam and solid lifters. Installed a Mustang 2 rack and pinion steering assembly and really made that car such a pleasure to drive, and eliminated the under steer. Sadly, that car got destroyed by a drunk that smacked it while parked in front of my folks' house, one Thanksgiving day.

[@johnfranklin5277]

In 1977 my senior year, I bought a 68 mustang from a friend of mines parents.well kept, Light blue. 2 tone blue interior. 289, automatic with factory AC, power steering, and 4 wheel MANUAL drum brakes!! Has the optional hood with turn signal lights in it. I paid 500 dollars for it. Of course that was a lot more then than today. It was my daily driver till the summer of 1980 when I bought my 1st new car. Put about 35.000 miles on it over those 3 years. 43 years later, And lots of new cars, I still have it, its still bone stock, in excellent condition, lifelong southern California car. Still has its original black and yellow plates. I still drive it for pleasure, errands, car shows etc. It drives fine, is fine on the freeway etc. So glad the couple times I toyed with the idea of selling it, in the mid 80s, a little voice kept saying, if you do this, you will regret it big time! Its definitely not going anywhere now!! It's part of the family. Thanks for making this vid for us car crazy people.

@Joe Santos the mustang was unveiled on April 17th 1964. It is called the 1964 1/2 mustang. Do your homework on the subject before you make comments like you did. If you were a true mustang fan you would know this information.

[@Gearhead1967]

The Ford Mustang is officially unveiled by Henry Ford II at the World’s Fair in Flushing Meadows, New York, on April 17, 1964. That same day, the new car also debuted in Ford showrooms across America and almost 22,000 Mustangs were immediately snapped up by buyers. Named for a World War II fighter plane, the Mustang was the first of a type of vehicle that came to be known as a “pony car.” Ford sold more than 400,000 Mustangs within its first year of production, far exceeding sales expectations.

My absolute favorite. 1967 - Where Ford got the styling 100% right, and shouldn't have gone any further. By 1972 this thing was ridiculous. A friend had a '73 Mach One and the backlight was almost flat, from the back seat you were looking at the sky.

@@lonewolfmcquade8879 Yea, the car found in Mexico was basically a shell and was bought by a guy who was going to have it turned into a Gone in Sixty Seconds "Eleanor" replica, fortunately he had the car investigated before doing so and found out it was the "other" Bullitt Mustang that everyone thought had been crushed. The man who prepped the Mustang's along with the 3 Charger's used for the movie was a guy named Max Balchowsky, he's a hero of mine and if you've never heard of him Google his name or enter it on KZbin and you'll find out why he's one of my hero's, he bought the cars from the movie company after filming was completed, the stunt Mustang was pretty banged up so he sold it to a scrapyard and everyone's always assumed over the years that it went through the crusher, turns out the scrapyard sold it to a Mexican scrap dealer and that's why it wound up sitting in the desert down there. Seriously, if you don't know the story about Max look him up, there's a fantastic article online from Road and Track called "Max Balchowsky and Old Yeller II; the junkyard dog that beat the world" it's about his home built racer he called Old Yeller II, it's a home built car that beat every Ferrari, Jaguar, Aston Martin, Maserati and every other high end European sports car that was thrown at it, he sent 'em all packing back across the Atlantic with their tails between their legs, he didn't always drive the car in races himself, the list of drivers who drove it include Carroll Shelby, Dan Gurney and some of the biggest racers of the era, there's also a Speedvision episode of Behind the Headlights on KZbin about Max and Old Yeller II that Shelby and others are interviewed in👍👍👍

Neither '67 or '68 had both hood tach and scoop hood from the factory. Now a days you see both.

I had a '67 Lime Gold Mustang Fastback, which I bought in 1974 with 89000 miles. It was powered by a 289 2 barrel with an automatic transmission. I'd like to add some comments that appear often overlooked. The interior was amazing ! With a fold down rear seat and an access door to the trunk. When required that provided exceptional interior utility. I wished that design was continued in all cars. Honestly you could stuff lots in that car. Mine was equipped with a factory tachometer in the dash which being an automatic, I always thought was curious . Actually I think that was a rare accessory on a lower performance model. Most were equipped with a trio of idiot lights where I had a tach. Also the front brake calipers were dual piston. Another surprising upgrade. Not so good when one piston would seize, wearing the pads at an angle. The doors were huge and over a short time overwhelmed the hinge pins. Ford Parts gave me new pins free of charge. Lastly, after some amateur (me) cosmetic body freshening, those individual letters on the lower side of the front fenders, just behind the front wheels were a poor idea on the 67 and attracted rust. I got the idea to consider a cheap respray. The local body shop told me sight unseen, that that was a bad idea. Without even looking they listed about 8 areas of 'minor' rust that was actually the top of well known and large rust events. In spite of that disappointment, I drove the car for a year and a half, til I graduated University and moved on. I loved it. ps ..Any comments on how my 67 got built with a factory tach and 2 piston calipers would be appreciated.

[@machtschnell7452]

Thank you for a trip back in time. I believe 1972 mother purchased a 1968 Mustang GT formal roofline Mustang. My sister had purchased it briefly before and needed the money for collage. Maroon, with matching colour pony interior, GT wheels, full console w/ floor shift automatic, 289 2bl. Me @ 11 years old, was in LOVE. It had driving lights (they didn't work for unknown 11 year old reasons) and I loved the reverse hood scoop turn signals in the hood. I was privileged to be able to sit on a couple of throw pillows and get to drive the Mustang GT at 12 years old, by then. Shortly afterwards............VERY Clear memory, November 1975 mother traded the car in for a 1973 LTD. ONE pissed off 12 year old. I begged her to take the LTD back and calmly went away and cried for hours. Fond memories of a very cool, Now extremely collectable car. Thank you for listening.

Insurance companies check the 3rd and 4th digits of the VIN: "Hey, this is no Fairlane"

Very good video, but to clarify the "GTA" (GT Automatic) was badging available only 1967. In 1968, either stick or automatic had only "GT" badging.

"67, toy car for me. 68, Bullitt.

Congrats on 100k! This type of video and the GM Motorhome are some of my favorite videos to watch.

At the '20 Kissimmee Mecum auction there was a GT 350 with a Paxton Supercharger. I was a whoa moment for me. Didn't know that it was a option .

My first car was a 67 fastback Mustang....with the 200 cube straight 6 and three speed manual. I modified the car slightly with a "Thrush" muffler and tuned the engine to run high octane aviation gas. That high octane gas plus the tuning allowed me to blow away 289 Mustangs through second gear.....and then I hit third and got left in the dust. :( That car was a BLAST!!!

Excellent history lesson, and graphics for these ever iconic mustangs, thanks so much!

[@billthompson5644]

You are TRULY the MASTER of details.

[@VideoCallInShow]

Though the '69-'70 body style is my favorite Mustang, you are indeed correct on all points as it relates to the '67-'68.

[@robmcgowan4034]

I love the '69-'70 body style too, but only on the fastback & Mach I. The coupe and convertible were getting bloated with the '69.

My favorite years for the Mustang.

[@joelalexander5338]

I miss my 1966 Mercury Comet Sport Coup with the 289 with a manual transmission. It was bullet proof. I loved that car and miss it.
