One of the most significant attractions of the First Generation Ford Mustang upon its release was Ford’s decision to offer buyers a wide range of factory options. It allowed people to prioritize their needs while keeping costs within their budgets. Such is the case with this 1967 Mustang. The first owner started the process by ticking the box next to the GT package on their Order Form, but went on to create what is now a pretty desirable classic. I must say a big thank you to Barn Finder Curvette for spotting this wonderful survivor listed here on eBay in Clinton, Tennessee. The seller set their BIN at $45,000 with the option to make an offer.

The 1967 model year brought the first significant restyle to the Mustang range. Two factors drove the desire for change. Firstly, Ford felt the appearance needed a revamp after over two years on the market. Secondly, the company aimed to fit larger engines under the hood, and the existing engine bay lacked the necessary space. This GT rolled off the line during that model year, with its Lime Gold paint one of the more subtle shades on that year’s color palette. The car carries the unique cosmetic details that were hallmarks of the GT package, including the grille, fog lights, lower body stripes, and badges. The seller doesn’t mention a restoration history, suggesting that this could be a genuine survivor. Its condition is pretty impressive if that is the case. The paint retains a warm glow, the panels are free from bumps and bruises, and there is no evidence or mention of rust. The trim looks extremely nice, and there are no visible issues with the glass.

Powering this Mustang is Ford’s A-Code 289ci V8. This motor sends 225hp and 305 ft/lbs of torque to the rear wheels via a three-speed automatic transmission. Combined with the first owner’s decision to opt for power-assisted steering and brakes, this GT should provide a relaxed motoring experience. It might not be the fastest GT produced in 1967, but its performance would still be pretty respectable. Although not expressly stated, the impression conveyed by the seller is that this Mustang is numbers-matching. They are sparing with their information, failing to provide an insight into the car’s mechanical condition. However, the engine bay looks clean, with no evidence of fluid leaks or other nasty issues.

This Mustang’s interior is consistent with a survivor-grade vehicle of this vintage. Trimmed in Code 6G Medium and Light Ivy Gold Crinkle Vinyl, it is serviceable if the buyer wishes to preserve this classic. Otherwise, they might consider replacing the driver’s seatcover and the carpet, as both exhibit age deterioration and physical faults. Otherwise, it appears pretty tidy, and the only potential aftermarket addition I can spot is a retro-style radio. Apart from the GT package, the first owner ordered this classic with air conditioning, a center console, and an overhead console. The seller states that the A/C needs work, which is hardly surprising considering there is no compressor belt.

The 1966 model year was always going to be a tough act to follow for Ford’s iconic pony car. An incredible 607,568 buyers drove away in a ’66 Mustang, with sales dropping to 472,121 in 1967. That figure is hardly disastrous, reflecting growing competition within that market sector. It also means these cars are hardly rare, motivating some owners to extensively modify their Mustangs to reflect their personal tastes. This GT has avoided that fate and could be a strong candidate for enthusiasts seeking a survivor-grade classic. The listing statistics are remarkably low, which may reflect that recent sales results suggest the BIN is slightly optimistic. Do you agree? If so, what do you feel would be a fair price for this highly optioned GT?
