I am putting my GT/CS up for sale to support a new business venture. It is on page 3 of the gallery. Candyapple red with white top. I have had extensive mechanical work done in the last year because I wanted a dependable driver. The 302 was rebuilt by Jasper motors, has 300 miles on it. it has new starter, alternator, master cylinder, brake lines, water pump, petronix, radiator rebuilt, complete suspension new or rebuilt front and rear, power steering rebuilt all linkage, new bushings, upper and lower ball joints. I am sure there is more I am forgetting, I have approx. $8000 in receipts from this year, Comes with stock wheels and tires and 10 spoke set of wheels and tires. Price is $24,500. I am listing here first. I could find no rust anywhere. Great driving car! Any one interested can call me or e-mail for more pics and info.

Thanks Steve, I hope it goes to a member here. I plan on waiting 3 or 4 days before I list on on-line sites.

Re:selling my GT/CS

Looked at your photos and the car looks like it's a 1968 out of the showroom, very nice indeed. I was puzzled by the bench seats, most of the interior photos of the GT/CS vehicles I've seen showed bucket seats. Is this something rare for a GT/CS to have bench seats ?

I was in a few early mustangs recently and the bench seat felt higher off the floor than bucket seats which seemed easier to get in and out. This would be a plus for us baby boomers who are not too nimble.. With those few extra pounds we carry, it's tough fighting gravity getting out of a seat near the floor..

Re:selling my GT/CS

The bench seat is a very rare factory option. I have a Marti report on this car that documents it as the only Mustang in 68 with this color and options. There were very few mustangs that had a deluxe interior and a bench seat. I have an original 1968 dealer brochure that shows a bench seat in a GT/CS in the same colors as my car! This is the first mustang I have had with a bench seat. I prefer the bench seat.

We have all enjoyed your pictures of your car. It is a very very nice car and we hate to lose you to from the group.

Good luck on selling the car. I believe you are on the money for your asking price.

I'll add my name to the list of those in agreement on the value, worth that and more from what I can see. You have one of the most beautiful GT/CS's I've seen. I absolutely love the stance you have on your suspension and the tire and wheel combo is perfect. I wish I had my stance dialed in the same as yours. It just has an I want to eat you for lunch look.

Re:selling my GT/CS

Thanks for the compliments. I hope to get another GT/CS a couple of years down the road, so I plan to still keep up with this site even after I sell.

Re:selling my GT/CS

Re:selling my GT/CS

link does not work. got a better link?

Re:selling my GT/CS

the site is www.cars-on-line.com I don't know how to post it as a link.

Re:selling my GT/CS

The guy on the site with the $39K California Special........??? Maybe $20K.....??? Nice car but.....Man...ever since gone with 60 seconds.....every mustang is worth a fortune....

There is a standard coupe on that site from Colorado for only $15,500. That would be a good price for a GT/CS...BUT a standard coupe??...

Everybody's car seems to be worth a fortune! Fastbacks are disappearing and becoming shelby clones....

If we could only get someone to make a movie about Little Red....?? or Maybe a new Smoky and the Bandit Movie with Burt Reynolds stealing 100 California Specials in 24 hours with a gumball rally crew...The Sheriff in hot pursuit....stopping off in Texarkana for some Coors Beer... getting married in Las Vegas to Sally Fields in the Elvis Chapel...and arriving in San Jose, California for a Mustang reunion...and so on...Look out, all of the coupe prices would double and the real GT/CS and HCS cars would be $100K cars...

If that movie ever comes out, I'm there ... ;D ;D ;D

Re:selling my GT/CS

The Gumball Rally has to be one of the best Cannonball movies of all time. If anyone hasn't seen it and can find it I highly recommend renting it.

....thing looks like a damn jukebox.....

Gotta love it ;D

Re:selling my GT/CS

"First rule of Italian racing driving is-What isa behind you, don'ta matter!" One of my favorite movies. ;D

sorry for your pending loss, but maybe you can still visit it every once in awhile.
