Lets see first the convertible is in the hands of a collector in Georgia and second one Drew is restoring for a client in Europe and now your proof is in a landfill? was there 3 now? Bill no called you a liar but you are the most frequent Mustang facts poster here but not the most accurate. Try this story on a Mustang forum suppose you have seen the only 427 Mustang as well.

They actually made 2 427 Mustangs in 1968. I know a guy who has one of them and I have been told there were 2. No they were not W codes. They were R-codes that had 427 8V engines installed AT THE FACTORY. Documented and such. The one I know about I have yet to see in person but Chris Teeling told me it is real. The owner is local here in the Detroit area. His dad was an exec at Fords and the car was built on the line with the 427 installed and a numbers matching CJ dropped off at his house. This guy inherited the car from his dad. Has it all. Documentation and all. When I get a free weekend I will be going and see this car. My painter actually saw the car at a show he judged last summer and said the car was awesome. So there was at least one 427 factory installed Mustang in 1968. no bull about it being a R-code-thats just semantics because what was installed is what the car was, right? If not then there were never any 1964 427 Thunderbolts(289 K-codes, all of them). Gary

As far as I know there were never any production 1968 427 Mustangs built. I am aware of a 1968 428CJ Torino that was allegedly customized by Ford for a major Dealer. The modifications included swapping the original 428CJ for a 427 tunnel port.
Please get your story straight before attributing information to others.

Well in the sake of fairness in the fact I don't have any old PMs from Chris to go back to then strike him from my above post. Somebody said to me who has a great deal of knowledge on 68.5s last summer the above info. Now I will see the above 68.5 car with the 427 in it in the near future and will critique any docs he has on this car. Where did the other car come from I mentioned? Well I didn't make this up and my history on other boards show that I am a straight shooter. Somebody told me there were 2 made this way. Chris asked me to try and get the owner of said 68.5 car to register it with the registry. Now if it wasn't Chris and I thought it was him I contacted(he is the resident68.5 guy on the CJ site ) then I don't know who told me they knew about this car and wanted it registered with the CJ registry. So with all fairness at this time strike Chris from the above and I will have to stay confused on who gave me this info then. I also want to apologize to Chris for using his name here and I used it because I believed my story was "straight" at the time. Sorry Chris. Gary
