  1. While it coild be resuscitated there are other better examples for restoration. Unlike some vehicles there are thousands of Ford Mustang hulks in better condition.

    1. Amazingly the windshield seems intact.
      But yeah, that's a parts car at best.
      68?

    2. 68 indeed. At least the left front fender is. 68 was the beginning of side marker lights. Federally mandated.

  3. Parts only. Hit too hard in the side, probably has frame damage.

    1. Looks like the engine is already gone.

  4. Not even. We have rebuilt far worse than that.

  5. It's a Mustang, man. It was too far gone when it was sitting on the showroom floor.

  6. All you need is the VIN tag. You can get everything you need to build a brand new Mustang in the aftermarket. Start with the VIN tag and build up. Probably run around $60k or so to make a brand new 1967 Mustang, not including your labor costs.

  7. A 67-8 Mustang, built around a Ford coyote engine, with proper, modern suspension, will blow the doors off of most everything out there, with class and style. It just takes ENOUGH money.

  9. Snag all the interior and exterior emblems, horn button, gas cap and wiper arms, if the trunk is open see if it still has the scissor jack and folding lug wrench. Maybe come back later for that windshield trim and the tail lights.
