no, he is not realistic, I am restoring a 68 coupe and have learned alot about mustangs. that car was worth 25k sitting there especially since its not rotten like most mustangs
That was my first car 68 fast back except I had a built 351 interceptor in it, and as teenagers do I got drunk and got stuck on the railroad tracks and had to watch a train rip it apart I lost my license for 4 years and had 2 years probation and 1500 community service hours,plus a $10,000 fine,the railroad company destroyed me
I really feel bad for this guy, when he said, “I can’t afford to restore it so I would have to sell it” I really felt that, I wish I could help him to get his baby restored.
I had the same issue in the late 90's; 1968 Mustang GT Fastback, with the numbers matching J-code 302 complete with the original carb...and then had a baby. Car went buh-bye.
My grandfather's '65 Cherry Red Mustang is in my grandmother's garage. It runs beautiful and not a scratch. And she is not letting it go while she is alive, it reminds her of grandpa. I love that car (but so does the rest of the family, so I know I'm probably getting it)... Note, my grandfather (a WWII vet) was the original owner. When people say they don't make them like that anymore, there really is something sweet about some of the classic muscle cars. And the 1960's Mustangs will always be at a top spot.
Mustangs are "KOOL" no doubt especially late 60's with that Kool mustang in front grill, I'm no expert but I've always thought the 57 "CHEVY" was the ultimate kool dream car 🤔?
Yep. I read a great interview from 2015 with the stunt driver of the Charger 440 R/T and he had to let off the accelerator on the straightaways to keep the chase dramatic because he kept pulling away.
Because it's fake, scripted, not real, actors, tv studio, someone wrote this, not real, car rented from a dump, fake, paid actors, need to be framed, taking all the risk, it's the most I can do, fake, Mr Brown and Steve Mc Queen went famously together.
because its fixed from the getgo ? .. you actually think the "expert" aint right behind the camera .. noone drops everything they are doing to come give Rick free advice :)
The Mustang GT that Steve drove was an "S" Code car with a 390 Cu. In. engine, 4 speed trans, and a 3.25 axle ratio with no Limited Slip Diff (open rear axle, only right rear tire pushes. I am a certified car nut and was at the Mecum Auction in Florida when it sold for $3.7 Million including commisions. The car your looking at is pretty much a parts car that would require upwards of $100K to restore to concourse condition.
It's exactly the same in England when you see Cosworths for sale (today). You could pick them up back in the 90's for a couple of grand (£2000). Were they worth it? Absolutely, NO! They were thrashed , abused and just not worth the hassle. As for rot? If they went as fast as they rotted, their speed would be interplanetary. Mugs are paying fortunes for them now.
Not at all. I love the car but agree with Corey. It's a beauty but he knows his dad's weakness he speaks for the shop ..I don't think that good cop bad cop was going on here. It's more ricks zealousness and a little of Corey's ignorance
When I looked under the hood and saw the small block and the interior and saw an automatic, Rick paid way too much. When it’s restored it will be a 40k car....
Rick: it has a 351 4 bolt main right? Seller: yep Danny: lets see the soul of this thing Seller: it has the 5 liter 302 Danny: exactly what it should have 🥴
I think at 12 grand you make it what you like. If it were in very good condition I'd say keep it original. Have fun with this one - life is short - if you are going to have to spend/work as hard as you are going to for this baby to come to life.
Without the chemical paint remover job and a few other unfortunate decisions it could have been something as rare and valuable as an unrestored original. For Ferraris they will scavenge complete working cars to get parts to keep the valuable models original, resulting in an unrestored 250 GTO being worth between $40 and 50 million. Restore it to a shiny condition and the price goes down to the low 20ies - yeah you expect more but there are no more cheaper 250s to scavenge parts from to put it back to original shape. I had a few unrestored originals myself and theres no way i would restore a classic car, youtuber commenters who never owned one dont understand how much you can appreciate a classic car that is all original, you gotta own one to believe it, its priceless and not only for purists. Remember that the car cannot be unrestored, thats why you often see these cheaper classics with the ad text "had a full restoration in 1998", which basically means original parts were replaced and new panels manufactured, and maybe even desecrated with "upgraded to modern standards". Again, cant undo it, the exact same will happen in 12-15 years to cars restored nowadays, its a piece of junk that somebody messed with and even the guy who restored it will say "who did this crappy work, they destroyed the car!". Once you looked at it from all angles the conclusion will be "Just dont do it".

i sold a 68 mustang cobra 428 cj high rise with dual carbs it was restored and it sold for good money after driving it for about 15 years after restored
They never said it was the original engine. Only that the engine was factory stock. Ford made the 302, 302 Boss, a 390, a 289, the 300 inline six...428, and the 429...of that Era.
@@evoxxxbih8386 its only worth what people are willing to pay for it, in todays market I wouldn't be surprised if someone did pay 30k for that car. But in my opinion it needs a lot of work so I would only pay 15k for it max. People really are going crazy a nd driving the prices of these cars up a lot. and its frustrating because I really want a Challenger, but everyone wants to sell their rusted out hunk of junk that doesn't run for 20k. But really no one lied about the price in this video. I think it was a very reasonable price.
I had a chance to have a 66 mustang as my first car but my dad didn’t think it was in good enough shape for what they wanted for it🤷🏼♂️ I wanted it sooooo bad😩 it was yellow with black racing stripes.
The Vin number underneath hood or door tag will tell you whether its a real GT or not. Just having the gas cap and fog lights does not mean shot. There are free sites if you google your vin that will tell what the car is where was made the date etc.
As a Mustang guy who has restored several different year models, there’s so much cringeworthy about this clip. And then I remember this is a “reality” show made for the masses, and I’m not the intended the intended audience...
It wasn't a Bullitt Mustang, Rick had Danny Coker build a replica Bullitt Mustang but this isn't a Bullitt Mustang for one it didn't have the driving lights in the grill and all the GT markings were removed or painted over in flat black or primer
@@alexander1485 I think this one is a 68 but the engine the old man said was a 302, and both Bullitt Mustangs had the 390 as you stated. Rick did buy the car and Count's Kustoms did build Rick a replica of the Bullitt Mustang.
That was fair market value on a '68. Being 95% complete. The engine was not the original engine...only factory stock. The 1969 may have come with 428 cobra jet. 429 was another version. Also the coupe could be purchased with the 300 c.i.d. inline six or the 289 V8.
@@Jd-ry4th No you can't. First, the VIN is not attached to the door. That's the dealer warranty tag. The VIN is on the passenger side of the dash. It matches up with the stamped VIN on the driver side inner fender. Neither the warranty tag nor the VIN plate will tell you whether it's a GT.
Id look at the vin on the dash, door jamb tag, and fender core support. And even look for the original build sheet.... Just saying! Seen a lot of mustangs back in the day. 302? How about a 390 with a 4 speed! I have a 63 VW beatle that Steve McQueen owned for sale!
My first car was a 69 notchback Mustang with a 302 and restored it to pristine condition back in 1985, it was the fastest car around back in the day. Sold it when I had my first child, it broke my heart to give it up. I would buy it for that price in a heartbeat!!!
@@michaelbeckwith1073 a muscle car is a point of view... they were not referring to any cars in the 60s and 70s as muscle cars. They were simply known as “cars” we call them muscle cars today. And yes, pony cars include mustang, Camaro, Cuda and challenger. Since you want to get all specific...
@@daniels8105 Well being from that era you're incorrect....the term has been watered down to include just about anything with four wheels....then original term for muscle cars is midsized cars...you can spin it however you want
It’s not as bad as it looks a professional restoration shop could do it no problem sand blast the body repaint everything new interior rechrome check on all the mechanical parts and a few other odds and ends and it’ll be like new which is easier said than done but not too difficult for professionals

LOVE this show, and always loved Mustangs, so this episode is ESPECIALLY great. Also love that the original Calif. Black Plates are still there. haha, put the exact same 'M U S T A N G' windshield decal on mine back in the '80s
The way Cory calls the seller “dude” is a clear sign of a whopping backhand he deserves. Have some respect son.
Cool story bro
He certainly didn't learn that from his grandfather
@@mendonesiac if he had learned from his grandfather he would have called the seller "son"
@@Laozi_Sparta "son" is for those under 30
Common courtesy and respect are leaving more and more with new generations.. its just sad honestly
Ooooo man, I can’t wait to see what they do to this, Dam!! 😎
i sold a 68 mustang cobra 428 cj high rise with dual carbs it was restored and it sold for good money after driving it for about 15 years after restored
I would love to see how Rick restored this car. Could you show this in another video ? @pawnstars ?
I hope all Us car lovers can see this Beautiful Machine finished I’m a MOPAR Guy but I can appreciate any ride
Thanks for your comment, will introduce you to something different and quite profitable

351 in a 68 mustang, no. Try a 390.
Right. 289,302,390,427 and 428 in 68.
My first car was a 68 2 door coup, 289 3 speed. Green. Great little car.
I remember watching it on TV. This is so cool!
I would definitely make sure the numbers matched first
They never said it was the original engine. Only that the engine was factory stock. Ford made the 302, 302 Boss, a 390, a 289, the 300 inline six...428, and the 429...of that Era.
I wish we could get an update of what happened to this car, i'm sur Rick paid the full restoration.
“4 bolt main 351”
opens the hood and it’s a 302 lmao.
Ah, gotta love the old Stang's. I'd love to have an old muscle car one day.
_"The least I can take is $500 more than the car is worth."_
And Rick paid it. Corey was right, in this case.
That car worth 30k plus in that condition they lied to people
@@evoxxxbih8386 its only worth what people are willing to pay for it, in todays market I wouldn't be surprised if someone did pay 30k for that car. But in my opinion it needs a lot of work so I would only pay 15k for it max. People really are going crazy a nd driving the prices of these cars up a lot. and its frustrating because I really want a Challenger, but everyone wants to sell their rusted out hunk of junk that doesn't run for 20k. But really no one lied about the price in this video. I think it was a very reasonable price.
That was all an act. A J code 68 fastback in that condition is easily worth 18k. *EASILY*
No, no. That's not $30k. It's "high teens."
The old man should have called Mike from American Pickers and sold it for $25,000
I had a chance to have a 66 mustang as my first car but my dad didn’t think it was in good enough shape for what they wanted for it🤷🏼♂️ I wanted it sooooo bad😩 it was yellow with black racing stripes.
The Vin number underneath hood or door tag will tell you whether its a real GT or not. Just having the gas cap and fog lights does not mean shot. There are free sites if you google your vin that will tell what the car is where was made the date etc.
I've never seen Rick buy anything above the lowest estimate of his appraiser before... wow. I bet he already has a buyer lined up.
Probably not, but he figured that even with the restoration cost there was still money to be made, and he's probably right.
As a Mustang guy who has restored several different year models, there’s so much cringeworthy about this clip. And then I remember this is a “reality” show made for the masses, and I’m not the intended the intended audience...

What did you find cringeworthy?
In the 80's a friend of mine bought one for $250 or $750..
It was a rough runner, but in great shape otherwise..
Nice factory red.
The doors close..making it impeccable..I'm impressed
3:17
Danny : Besides Corey, what are your concerns!? 😂😂
Love this show so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Where is the final piece of the restored beauty of this thing? Gotta see it!
pls
show us the film when u restore it
i beg you so much
i woludl rly to see that
What a great car. Definitely looks like a west coast car for sure.
I would love to see a follow up video to this one
I'm waiting too!
I see rust holes around the back window molding, and nobody looked at the frame rails , floor pans and trunk pan ?
15 years ago I helped my uncle rebuild his 68 mustang, just found out it's a bullet lol
It wasn't a Bullitt Mustang, Rick had Danny Coker build a replica Bullitt Mustang but this isn't a Bullitt Mustang for one it didn't have the driving lights in the grill and all the GT markings were removed or painted over in flat black or primer
The real one which ive seen... twice was a 1968 GT390
@@alexander1485 I think this one is a 68 but the engine the old man said was a 302, and both Bullitt Mustangs had the 390 as you stated. Rick did buy the car and Count's Kustoms did build Rick a replica of the Bullitt Mustang.
Rare that Rick pays the retail price. Must've been a purchase for himself.
That was fair market value on a '68. Being 95% complete. The engine was not the original engine...only factory stock. The 1969 may have come with 428 cobra jet. 429 was another version. Also the coupe could be purchased with the 300 c.i.d. inline six or the 289 V8.
Would LOVE to see this GT restored!!
the fastback is my second favorite Mustang. Beautiful find if you have the time and money to restore her
"Most just surface rust"....camera pans to rusted through section...
Surface rust, it was rusted through
He literally couldve looked on the inside of the door to see that it was an original GT
No he couldn't
@@kalan4787 yea at the vin #
@@Jd-ry4th No you can't. First, the VIN is not attached to the door. That's the dealer warranty tag. The VIN is on the passenger side of the dash. It matches up with the stamped VIN on the driver side inner fender. Neither the warranty tag nor the VIN plate will tell you whether it's a GT.
5:15 that look on old mans face saying "Rick I got you.."
Id look at the vin on the dash, door jamb tag, and fender core support. And even look for the original build sheet.... Just saying! Seen a lot of mustangs back in the day. 302? How about a 390 with a 4 speed!
I have a 63 VW beatle that Steve McQueen owned for sale!
I thought the Bullitt car was an S code 390.
yes they were, both of them, I have the vins of both cars
The real bullet Mustang sold at Mechum for 3 + million!
I was there!
351 4 bolt main wasn't even available in 1968...if it's an original and real G.T. it would have a 289 or 390
J code 302s could also be GTs in 68
My first car was a 69 notchback Mustang with a 302 and restored it to pristine condition back in 1985, it was the fastest car around back in the day. Sold it when I had my first child, it broke my heart to give it up. I would buy it for that price in a heartbeat!!!
Corey doesn’t know sh** about muscle cars. Obviously
Nothing does his Father. They never put a 351 in the '68 Mustang.
@@MidnightinSavannah stupidity pays a whole lot these days
Mustangs are not muscle cars they're considered pony cars...muscle cars are mid sized cars with big block engines....Chevelle...G.T.O...Fairlane etc.
@@michaelbeckwith1073 a muscle car is a point of view... they were not referring to any cars in the 60s and 70s as muscle cars. They were simply known as “cars” we call them muscle cars today. And yes, pony cars include mustang, Camaro, Cuda and challenger.
Since you want to get all specific...
@@daniels8105 Well being from that era you're incorrect....the term has been watered down to include just about anything with four wheels....then original term for muscle cars is midsized cars...you can spin it however you want
Oof, that thing is rough. I wonder how much Danny charged to fix it?
Hopefully he got somebody other than Danny to restore it.
Some of Danny's restorations are something only Danny could love.
It’s not as bad as it looks a professional restoration shop could do it no problem sand blast the body repaint everything new interior rechrome check on all the mechanical parts and a few other odds and ends and it’ll be like new which is easier said than done but not too difficult for professionals
The original Bullet mustang had a 390 v8.also you can see the complete car on Counting Cars with Danny Koker 👍👍✌👽
Part 2 please
Bullitt was a 390....the 351C didn't come out until 1969
@Cam montreuil engines ok....70 MODEL YEAR....it was first BUILT in 1969...you couldn't get it in any 69 Ford but COULD buy it in a 70 Mustang in October of 69..
I would have put Corey in his place for calling the older gentleman "dude."
My stepdad was an Iowa farmer born in 1939 and still used the term dude on occasion.
The term is not nearly as new or as crass as you think it is
@@cryptidproductions3160 I suppose a colloquial term to certain areas and not in others.
Dang beautiful old school classic
I have a 68 fastback. It's a 289 2bl auto though. And it's in about the same condition as this car.
