For Sale: 1968 Ford Mustang "California Special" Coupe (Highland Green, 289ci V8, 3-speed auto)
This 1968 Ford Mustang coupe is one of 4,118 examples ordered with “California Special” equipment, which was available only for the 1968 model year. The car was built at the San Jose, California plant and was sold new at Midway Ford Sales of Los Angeles. The current owner acquired the car in 1997 from its reported original owner and subsequently had it refinished in green over a refreshed black interior. Power comes from a 289ci V8 paired with a three-speed automatic transmission, and equipment includes fog lights, a rear spoiler, side scoops and stripes, 14″ GT-style wheels, power steering, a center console, and a radio. Service since 2019 has included rebuilding the transmission and the carburetor, replacing the battery, and changing the oil. This “California Special” is now offered with service records, refurbishment photos, a Deluxe Marti report, black California license plates, and a clean California title issued to the seller’s wife in 1997.
