What a really nice and informative video. I had a bit of a rarity back in 1970 I purchased a 1969 Mustang Sports Roof 428 CJ 4 spd. for $1900.00 The original owner ordered it as a base Mustang no frills trim level but with the CJ, 4 spd, 391 gears, no p/s or air. With am radio, steel GT type wheels dark green with black vinyl interior. Being 17 in 1970 with a car like that, working at a popular Mobil Station it was a fun time to be alive. Funny how right after receiving the car I met a really sweet blonde. Getting in a street race was like breathing it happened all the time. As I recall the only street race I lost was to another 69 428 but with an automatic. Another neck and neck race was with a 69 Charger 440. The reason I say I won that one was he stopped for the light I didn’t. Thanks for the very satisfying video. One last thing my best time in the 1/4 at Irwindale was 13.60. That’s a real dog in 2022 but descent in 1970.
I purchased a 67 GT S code fastback, 4 speed, rust free, needing paint, back in 1976 for $750. Very high optioned car. Power discs, power steering, AC, Deluxe interior, AM FM, upper and lower consoles, tilt and swivel column, reminder package, fold down seat. Was a original black black car. I fell in love with the Bullitt car, so when I painted it, it was and still is dark green. Oh and when I purchased it, someone had installed a 428 CJ
Man, you guys can find the gems! Being the third owner of a San Jose built 67 Fastback GTA I really enjoy your channel. Nice shop and top notch editing. Good day. Randy Hanlon.
Since the 15 inch steelies that came with the competition suspension where missing, we chose these wheels and deleted the GT stripe to give it that "look"
I'm doing a '67 right now, and looking for a color...... This is nice.......Why would someone give this a "thumbs down"?........ Don't like rare classic cars?
LOL we have one "mystery person" who gives every one of our videos a thumbs down. It does nothing but make me laugh though! This color is the bomb too. Best of luck to ya on your build.
Absolutely stunning Mustang! In 1968 I test drove a new ‘68 GT fastback 390, 4 speed Mustang in dark moss green. I ended up buying a new Roadrunner 383 with 4 speed in dark metallic green. Those were the days when Detroit was in the muscle car business…race on Sunday, and sell on Monday.
The memories come flooding back. I was at UCLA in '69 with my stock 67 A code GTA. Candyapple red with black interior. Found another student with a K-code 67 4-speed in my dorm. He took me for a ride down to Tommy's on Ramparts and showed off what his "little" motor could do. We commiserated over the fact that we repeatedly had break-ins through the dinky handles on the wing windows and we'd lose tape players and gym stuff. Not too long after I put a Shelby cam and 600 CFM carb on my baby. Such a fun car. Sold it in 75 for next to nothing because gas had about doubled. Regret it still.
Wow im a mopar guy but the 67 fastback is one of the most beautiful cars ever to come out of Detroit only thing better than this would have been k code with the 427 well one can only dream lol
Had the great luck to be the second owner of a 1 year old 67 390 4 speed GT K code Fastback, Candy Apple red with red interior. No factory AC, but still the coolest car. Sure wish had had the good sense to hang onto her. Your video warmed my heart!
Thanks. Looking it up, seems to be more correctly an S Code. Power-wise likely more impressive than the 289 powered K. With a 2.90 (?) rear-end I was told by the Dealer it was 1 of maybe 200 built to qualify NASCAR. S or K, it would scare a bullet-proof 20 year old! @@mrfiestas
I have a friend that found a K code, 1967 fastback in a junkyard back in the 90's. He bought it for 500 bucks, not much left, got all of the right parts and rebuilt it, sold it 5 yrs later for about 60k. It was Britany blue, i believe.
He says this k-code is one of two ever built in dark moss green with a 4-speed. If that is truly the case, I owned the other one in Portland Oregon in 1980. The only option it had was power disk brakes, otherwise it was manual steering, standard interior, AM radio, no fold-down seat car. I did add diamond tuck to the doors and seat backs (it was the early 80's). I will say that this car handled like it was on rails. I out-gunned my buddy in his Porsche 914 up the back side of Council Crest (very twisty). I do miss that machine.
Guess I didn't know about the K code existed for 67. Had a black 67 GTA A code back in the day and sold it long ago when you could buy them all day long and for cheap. Fast forward to the early 90s and I came across an S code 67 GTA Raven Black Deluxe Maroon interior both consoles tilt which I still gots. So I didn't get to pick the color it picked me...twice! They look better in the darker colors cause the chrome contrasts well.
A guy in Fairfield CT had the same combo back in the day, remember he didn't drive it too much. A few years later , a high school mate tried to sell me a rusty 66 convt 4 speed Hi Po back in 72 for a 1000, $ I understand they made even less of them.
I love your videos but, they make me sad. lol The first car I bought with my own money at age 17, in early 1968, was a 1967 Mustang fastback. It was Springtime Yellow with Saddle interior. Unfortunately, I was not forward looking enough to hang on to it. Thank you for your vids.
I wonder why a K code couldn't be ordered in a cougar? I have 2 rare 68 Cougars, both with 428cj. One is highly unknown special edition Cougar 500. Thanks for the great video!
Wonderful adult review. What an amazing package. The sound and look can’t be beat. I wish my 2018 could fold the rear seats as well. Thanks to you and your son. 👍🇺🇸
Nice video! I’m one of the lucky ones to have this car as well. The car is a project but has all the original parts which will be restored back to showroom condition. Cheers from Sydney Australia
This Mustang is wonderful. And as far as the driving style is concerned, specifically I continue to say that driving barefoot, there is the right feeling and the excellent grip on the pedals.
HA! I was expecting a bunch of people hating on driving barefoot, but I'm kind of surprised to get a positive comment first. Honestly, it's just really hot here sometimes in Texas and you do what you gotta do to stay cool.
@@QualityClassics First of all thank you for having responded to me. I am following your TH-cam channel and your Facebook page from Italy, where I am originally from. Driving barefoot: I made a positive comment about it, for the reason that personally (if my opinion can count ...) I have been driving barefoot for many years. First of all, it is very important that no traffic regulations prohibit it, in any state of America and even in Italy. But I reiterate the concept that, apart from summer weather, barefoot you get the most grip on the pedals, and few people take this thing into consideration. It would be much more dangerous to drive with flip flops. And as for the professionalism of your videos, I find that they are all very interesting, and indeed, for many people who may perhaps object to your barefoot driving, I think you are an example, even as you really drive with great style , your cars. So if I were you, I would continue in this way, even driving always barefoot.
I had a 1963 Ford Fairlane Sports Coupe 4-sp k-code. I got rear-ended in '93, swapped it wrecked for a '73 Corvette Roadster, but wished I'd kept it, I'm sure a collector garaged it away somewhere.
Sounds As Strong As A BOSS 302 !! What MAKES the Competition Suspension ,Monroe Tuned Shocks,Bigger Sway Bars,I Would Guess? Add the Shelby Cobra Intake,Little Bigger Venturi Carb & Tri Y Headers To Get Up To 306 h.p.?Amazing Detail To Paint, Fit & Finish.Woa,Just Checked Out the Detail Pics.on Ur Web Site, Shock Bushing Tops Are Red,KONI SHOCKS,.?
I had a beat up 67 coup in the mid 70's. It had a 289 c6 with a few mods. Ran like a scalded dog. I paid $300 for it. While i was deployed (navy) someone stole the carb, intake, ignition and headers off of it. A few years later i bought a 69 Vette 350/325 4 spd. The Mustang was faster. IMHO, the 67-68 Mustang is the most beautiful car ever built...especially the fastback. Ahh, those were the days.
I recently heard the original bullet car run at the ford testing track and the 390 motor sounded just like the 390 bullet motor in the movie. It does NOT sound like a 289 at all.
Why would anyone order the race car configuration suspension and also order the car with a granny automatic transmission? Sometime is very suspicious about this option combination.
I like the hi-po a lot, but by 1967 the Mustang was getting a little too large. My "time machine" 1967 Mustang would be a Nightmist Blue 390 4-speed CONVERTIBLE with the option book thrown at it. AM/FM, interior and exterior decor group, tilt-away wheel, A/C, glass backlight, etc. Black interior and top, SS wheels, on and on. Aftermarket aluminum intake saves about 50 lbs off of the front end and is definitely needed.
Beautiful car I want it, it would have been better if you didn’t have the music playing through out the video I wanted to hear the engine the whole time that’s the music I wanna hear. I have a 1967 fastback with the six cylinder engine in it with the 4 speed in it it originally had the three speed in it and I swapped in the V8 running gear into it. Still need to swap over to disc brakes. Mines white with black interior
He forgot to mention that the same 289 motor also won the 24 Hours of Le Mans GT class in the Daytona Coupe, csme within a few laps of winning Le Man's overall, and won the 66 Manufacturer GT class championship for the Daytona Coupe. It also made the 289 Shelby Cobra one of the fastest cars ever produced (before they tried the 427 in it) and powered the first generation GT40 race cars as well. LEGEND indeed.
I add another STUNNING MUSTANG i dream to have = THIS MUSTANG K - CODE from 1967 model 4 speed in this Dark musk Green like in Bullit movie is my favorte but any colour alse i Take FASTBACK OR HARDTOP Full Restored
Stiffer springs and likely a 1 in front sway. I have a bone stock, unrestored 67 gta s fastback with about every option sans ac. It had what looked to be 7/8 front bar and regular springs. Sat like the car in the video. Upgraded to heavier springs all around 10 years ago w/ 1.5 drop and 1 in front bar, no rear bar. The car handles like its on rails. Every bit as good as my 67 289 coupe with the same setup.
Having been through many of these over the years and still owning my fair share including a 66 K code . I will say this.... The solid lifter 289 in the 64-68 range of cars is your drivers car . These cars handle and stop and just feel very light on their feet compared to the big block cars of 67-8 . The Big block cars really arent that much fun all the way around. Harder to work on , and heavy heavy heavy. The original design of the car was just ruined by putting a big block in them. And yet these are the most sought after... For drag racing thats nice but for a car you want to drive and enjoy this combination is it....
@@mysterycomment1553 Well "FUN" comes in all flavors.... Yes , my 70 R code is fun as hell . NO , my 66 K code cannot keep up with it in a straight line.... But You will get your feelings hurt in that 390 car by a well put together 66 K Code in the twistys..... If you get a chance to drive a nice one do it.... You will see what I mean...
@@mysterycomment1553 Oh boy , look , ive been at this for about 40 years , I understand what the FE weighs I have a few of them scattered around this garage. A couple of CJ engines , a side oiler on the stand stroked up . I owned a 4 speed GT S code back in the 80s , nice car. Its 150 pounds give or take for the engine alone , start nailing on some aluminum parts and it gets better / Then there is the driveline to support it. Then there is because of its size how the weight is placed in the car. I can get almost 400 inches out of an 8.2 decked small block.. Once I nail on aluminum heads and intake that weight difference starts to open up wider. I can position it better in the car and I can make more power cheaper and easier than I can with the FE . Its never gonna happen but lets just say I am only 75 pounds lighter on the front axle . Go ask anyone that builds cars that handle what taking 75 pounds off the front axle will do for a car.......Realistically its going to be more like 2-250 pounds off the nose....
Being a (passenger) survivor of a Mustang car wreck I've pretty much have stayed away from them for these past 40+ years. I'm not faulting Ford or the Mustang understand, it's removing that glass out of my forehead these many years that's soured me on them you might say. Notwithstanding and just curious, did this car come with factory AC option or was that considered too wus? Nice video, nice series. From a fellow Texan and new subscriber I enjoyed the show.
As I've come too expect from you guys,you seem too bring out the Mustang prestige and pedigree that is hard too beet.well done you really must hate your jobs LOL 🤣🤣🙏God bless you.
Go to 8:22 if you wanna hear this 289 HiPo roar!!!!!!
nothing sounds better...
I want you to drop all the music.
Didn’t hear the 4-bbl open at all‼️ This motor revs to 7k, so let’s HEAR the dang thing 🙄
Drop the music, yes💩
Sounds SWEET!!!
Anti climatic at best : ( …..sorry you didn’t convince me because I know what this engine can really do

I can get almost 400 inches out of an 8.2 decked small block.. Once I nail on aluminum heads and intake that weight difference starts to open up wider. I can position it better in the car and I can make more power cheaper and easier than I can with the FE . Its never gonna happen but lets just say I am only 75 pounds lighter on the front axle . Go ask anyone that builds cars that handle what taking 75 pounds off the front axle will do for a car.......Realistically its going to be more like 2-250 pounds off the nose....
@@kylevantassel7259 I loved my S code 67 coupe! The negative way you are describing it is a bit exaggerated.
You still have the s-code
We don't currently have an s-code for sale but you can sign up for our email on our website to be notified if we get one in! Thanks :)

Absolute jewelry. I’m jealous.
I don't know if i've ever seen two of these in the same shot
One of the two sold at Mecum Kissimmee Florida last week for $300,000.00! White interior 😖
Beautiful '67. Is 'Dark Moss Green' a different shade to 'Highland Green'? They look very similar.
DMG has metallic in it where is HG is more of a solid color
@@QualityClassics Thanks for the info.
Not the Bullitt car but extremely beautiful.
Old Stangs over new any day!! ☺✊
I miss my 67 Coupe. 289 is a bad ass engine. Torque little small block and why Carroll choose it for his Cobras.
Yep and the package it was wrapped in worked pretty well too
I WOULD JUST AS SOON HAVE THIS AS ANYTHING OUT THERE
driving bare foot ? nice video nice channel
Thanks!
Perfection !
thank you
Is it true in 1967 that the K code cost more then the S code?
According to my Mustang Red Book ... Yes. K-code was $433.55 and the S-code was $263.71
this car sounds exactly like steve mcqueen's car in the movie bullitt.
Beautiful car, but give me the Black one with the 390
I know, either OR for me
I love it how much
Мечта, да и только. .
I am so jealous of you.
We are having some fun with the cars. Thank you
Nice !
thank you
1967 / 1968 Fastback GT is the G*O*A*T Mustangs.
They just sold the Bullit Movie Mustang for $3.4 Million ... R.I.P. Steve McQueen ..
Cannot believe that dollar figure.
@@QualityClassics big bucks indeed but the holy grail of mustangs and the owner must be very wealthy
@@frozenice61 Yep, it's definitely a unicorn amongst Mustangs.
Being a (passenger) survivor of a Mustang car wreck I've pretty much have stayed away from them for these past 40+ years. I'm not faulting Ford or the Mustang understand, it's removing that glass out of my forehead these many years that's soured me on them you might say. Notwithstanding and just curious, did this car come with factory AC option or was that considered too wus? Nice video, nice series. From a fellow Texan and new subscriber I enjoyed the show.
no AC on the K-codes
Why does it sound like it’s hitting a limiter ?
My Mustang will get jealous if it knew I was watching this.
As I've come too expect from you guys,you seem too bring out the Mustang prestige and pedigree that is hard too beet.well done you really must hate your jobs LOL 🤣🤣🙏God bless you.
Thanks! We love what we do and feel very grateful.
This is like guys trying to say 340 Cuda’s are the best while the prices of the 440 and hemi cars prove that wrong.
Actually Ford made 472 in total K-GT that year. Only 20 came with automatic transmission…Rest is manual
Green makes my stomach go weak.
Oh super Car Mustang Bullit 🏁🥇🏆👌💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎💎
