A Classic Winter Blue Dream
Welcome to your dream car—a 1969 Ford Mustang hardtop. This iconic beauty comes in an irresistible shade of Winter Blue. Under the hood, you’ve got a robust 200ci Thriftpower inline-six engine, paired up with a nostalgic three-speed manual transmission. Hop inside, and you’ll sink into bucket seats draped in light blue vinyl. It’s got everything you’d want—a classic look with a modern sound system and snazzy grille lights.
A Modern Yet Classic Machine
- Repainted and reupholstered around 2017
- Purchased by its current owner in 2022
- Recent work includes:
- Suspension overhaul
- New clutch
- Updated exhaust components
- Replaced carburetor and radiator
- Serviced differential
It’s ready to hit the road, complete with service records and spare parts, and it holds a pristine, clean Ohio title in the seller’s name.
Some Bumps in the Road
As with any classic car, there are a few tales to tell. There’s been some left-front quarter damage repaired before the current owner took over. Following that, both front fenders and floor panels got a facelift back in 2017.
The latest scoop? The windows could use a bit of tweaking, and one of the frame rails requires some love and care.
Where the Rubber Meets the Road
- 14″ wheel covers
- Equipped with 205/75 Uniroyal Tiger Paw tires
- In 2023:
- Front drums replaced
- New front strut rods and tie rods
- Updated shocks and leaf springs
- All-new control arms
Step Inside the Past
The interior was reimagined in 2017. It features bucket seats and a rear bench cloaked in light blue vinyl, with darker carpeting adding richness to the floor. Music lovers, rejoice—a Custom AutoSound stereo with modern speakers has been thoughtfully installed. A new heater was brought in as recently as 2022.
Gauging the Details
The steering wheel frames classic gauges, including a 120-mph speedometer, and indicators for the alternator, temperature, and fuel level.
The five-digit odometer reads 51,000 miles, with the current owner contributing about 250 of those.
Under the Hood and Beyond
Bringing this classic into the 21st century, the 200ci Thriftpower inline-six has a new lease on life, thanks to a replacement intake and carburetor. The seller has also refreshed the radiator, coolant hoses, ignition components, and fluids.
Power? That’s sent straight to the rear wheels via a three-speed manual transmission. In 2023, the clutch and rear axle seals were shown some attention, along with a full overhaul of the exhaust system.
