1967 Ford Mustang GT Fastback (LHD)

Description

Introduced to widespread acclaim late in 1964, Ford's Mustang was breaking all sales records by 1967, and surpassed the million mark the previous year. Having left the Mustang largely unchanged for the first couple of years production, Ford decided it was due for a revamp in 1967 - due in part to competition from rivals such as Chevrolet's new Camaro. The Mustang was available in three body styles including the convertible, notchback coupe and fastback, with an extensive list of engine and transmission options. The look for 1967 was bigger all round - longer, wider and with more interior space and revised styling front and rear, but was still instantly recognisable as a Mustang. One of the more sought after options available on the car was the GT Equipment Group, a package that included power front disc brakes, dual exhausts (with chrome quad outlets) and grille-mounted fog lamps. Any automatic GT now went by the new GTA title and for the first time, Ford offered a big-block V8 in the Mustang. The 390-cid unit had a four-barrel Holley 600-cfm carburettor and developed a very healthy 320 hp at 4600 rpm, with bags of torque, turning Ford's Ponycar into a real street fighter. Combining the S-Code big-block V8 engine and GTA package makes this car a very desirable Mustang indeed, with an estimated 1900 built in 1967.
