Default 1969 Mustang Coupe 351C $3000

1969 Mustang Coupe. It's a Grande, 351 Cleveland 2v H code engine. Simply put it is pretty straight, never wrecked. I will do my best to describe the car and if it isn't raining I will take some pictures this weekend.

The car is Acapulco Blue with blue interior. It needs a front bumper, minor bodywork and some rust repair in the roof area. It had a vinyl top (now stripped) and has some rust in the trailing edge of the roof's top edge. I find no rust in the doors, fenders torque boxes or floors. It has some minor rust in the trunk's flat surface, but not in the quarter panels.

The interior is rough. The headliner, back seat and sun visors are good and servicable. The drivers seat can be made presentable and is ok for a 40 year old seat. The passenger seat, dash and carpets, and door panels are shot. The wiper washer switch needs replacing. There is no radio. It needs a passenger window regualtor.

The gauges work well with the exception of the fuel gauge. I think it due to a number of dash wires being disconnected and may be easily fixed.

It drives and runs strong. It pegs the oil pressure gauge all the way to the "H" It will need a front end rebuild, shocks etc. But if you live in Northern California you could drive it home and drive it while you restore it.

It has a rebuilt FMX transmission which shifts strong and smooth, It has 35,000 on the engine, recent dual ehaust with H pipe 9" rear. Good Glass, comes with an extra hood.

The numbers are... Body 65E Color 6 (acapulco blue) Trim 1BA DSO 72 Axle 2 (9" 2.75:1 conventional) Trans X. (FMX)

VIN 9R01H138977

$3000 which is about half what the NADA Guide says low book is www.nada.org

The car is parked on the street in Vacaville, CA and may be driven by and looked at 24/7
