What a great way to start a day 👍,coffee, eggs, bacon and toast. Breakfast and a Mustang video from lou 👍👍 Thanks for helping me start the day right.

I love the car. I love the color and of course, I love that 428! Craig has quite the Mustang out there in AZ, and plenty of great weather to enjoy it in. Thanks, Lou!

That thing is a MONSTER!

First! 😊 Nothing like a 68 Mustang! Especially equipped with a CJ and manual! Sounds like he upgraded the cam as well as the exhaust.

Lou, I'm a mopar & olds fan, but that is one sweet mustang ! Thanks to the owner for getting that car to look like it's going fast just sitting there ! Love the color & the rumble of that 428 ! Thanks lou - keep the great classics coming !

These cars were fun to drive on DRY pavement. When I was a kid I had a 1965 Fastback and it would swap ends in a heartbeat but once you figured out how to use the gas peddle they were a blast to drive. You had to have a passenger-side mirror though because your blind spot could hide a semi LOL. The 428 was a really good drag motor, lots and lots of torque. My personal favorite ford motor was the 351 short block stroker aka the 427, a bit less weight so somewhat better handling. Great idea to put the gear bender in, makes it a good road car. Thanks, Lou this was a great video as usual.

This is my favorite video you have made in my opinion. The car and all involved just oozing the magic dust that is the car hobby. Outstanding job!

Lou this is a great post. Well done. Craig awesome car and well done for preserving it in such fine shape. cool!!!

That's a beast; I love that sound!

Hi------THIS WAS MY CAR IN 1970's. Your uncle bought this car from me. Was my first car. This was my first car. I bought it in 1976 with 54k miles. I kept it 100% original. I cant believe I'm seeing this!!!! Would LOVE to talk to you about the history! I'm STUNNED! I still have a few pics of the car from way back when. Sold it due to GAS prices

My favourite Mustang of all time. 😍

Lou you always manage to find awesome cars to share with us, thanks for the great channel!!you're my favorite car man and what a lucky man you are,,as always "Howdy from Texas 😀"

Wow amazing car Lou. I have never seen a 1968 Cobra Jet Mustang in person before. I bet Steve McQueen would have loved for his Mustang in Bullitt to have had the Cobra Jet motor instead of the 390.

Beautiful and stunning car. What a landscape with the cactus in the background.

This has been one of the best Mustangs you’ve shown. It’s all business!! Thanks Lou!

By far, my favorite year and body style of Mustang and the 428 CJ makes it one of my dream cars!! GREAT VIDEO LOU.

Beautiful car and awesome scenery

Love the start up sound!

Nice cars and even nicer people. Thanks again Lou!❤️🔧🏁

What a pretty car and very fast car! I love the color and the styling of this car. I liked the owner to of the car he was fun! I love hearing from the owners of their cars that helps make the video too! A great piece of automotive history Lou! Thanks for sharing!

I love the setting at really shows the car off the mountains in the background deserty looking awesome

I love Mustangs ..It's very beautiful car Lou... Greetings from Rio, Brazil.

Loved the "meditation" interlude!

What a great Mustang and Car Story! Thanks Lou!

If I ever went past this car on the road , I would pull over and burn whatever I am driving . Because it's not worthy of being on the same road . Nice car . Thanks for posting .

My favorite year Mustang 😎

Hi Lou, Always a pleasure to watch your video's, not a huge Mustang fan but that sound was out of this world. That would put a smile on anyone's face. Your number 1 Fan in Australia Louis Kats from Melbourne Australia ☺ 👍 ❤

Hello, from Venezuela, GREAT MUSTANG nice color. Well preserved. Thanks for sharing.

Beautifully car and style car I love Ford's and mustangs made the year I was born damn that's sweet

sweet stang,thanks guys, cheers from torino,italy,,!

Love the 428 exhaust note. Never gets old.

Best looking model/year ever.. Thanks Lou..

The fastest car I ever sat in was a 68 Mustang GT with a HP 428 4spd. The owner sat a hundred dollar bill on the dash and told me if I could reach it between gears the $100 was mine..needless to say I never touched it..Nice Mustang in the video and thanks for sharing and jogging this old guy's memory.

That thing just oozes character. Makes a modern Pony look like a dump truck in comparison (sorry, Ford!)

I would sleep in this Machine!! In between smiling all day long!! Thank you for sharing this with Us!!

Craig has a beautiful car! I do work in Scottsdale, I'll have to look out for him possibly driving it around. He is the same age as me, as well, and I was mustang crazy as well, especially when the James Bond movie "Goldfinger" came out in 1964. I still have drawings when I was a kid, of drawing a mustang, as an example as to how enamored I was with them. The rumble of that exhaust, wow!!

Beautiful! One of the best looking years for Mustang. I had a ‘67, not a GT though but a coupe with a 200CI with a 3 speed on the floor. It was in around 1974 I had it? You would think it would be gutless but it was a peppy little pony. Paid 250 bucks for it, sold it to a friend who wrote it off in Port Dover Ontario. He was drunk, if I and another buddy in our group had gone with him there would have been 4 of us in that car, so 2 of us would have been in been in the back seat, he did have a front seat passenger already as it was. The roof was crushed in the rear. He rolled the car over in a deep ditch and he bought the “Welcome to Port Dover “ sign. So I might have possibly not be sitting here replying to this video if I and our our buddy had went with him that night. Luckily him and the front seat passenger survived, he had a few cuts and scratches the other guy a broken nose, amazing!

My favorite mustang of all time 🐎

Wow when qualify was still job one thank you very much Lou

What a car! What a colour too! Beautiful fastback design. Absolutely love it. Surprisingly I have the 1964 1/2 version Scale model from Johnny Lightning. That’s all I can afford!

We pine for that earlier time...50+ years ago when these classics appeared. Today's retro 'classics' are safer, easier to drive and maintain, but they don't have a soul like these cars Lou.

Fantastic vehicle. Enjoyed the fearsome sound with the performance and appearance improvements, i.e. '69 valve covers, new exhaust pipes, modification of the 4-speed & 3.91 rear end combo with an aftermarket overdrive that allows for lower R's, gas savings, and smoother cruising on top-end trips. Doesn't mention it, but that wicked lick while idling gives the impression of a bigger cam but you don't hear the tapping of a solid lifter, that's because the 428 had a true hydraulic hauler. It was an aggressive cam but more in line with say 470/275. I've always heard the 68 1/2 428 had sandbagged performance ratings due to NHRA taking posted horsepower numbers. She'd fade the closer you got to 5000 R's but on the low side of it, around 47 or 48, she's putting out around 365. I've been told that by people who knew, working at Holmon-Moody in Charlotte back when they had their operation out by the Airport. A boy who used to work in Bud Moore's Shop told me a long time ago that the 428 compression ratio was underrated, on purpose for the street hp ratings, as well. Tip of the hat to the owner for keeping all of the original parts.

Enjoyed this one

Perfection

One of the best episodes yet, Lou, but as a Mustang fan I'm somewhat biased! More like this PLEASE!! :@D

I believe the CJ Mustang actually originated at Tasca Ford in Cranston RI.... I've been there once and a definite must see for any car buff!!

What a machine awesome

💘 that CJ Bark!!

Just talked to Craig the owner and he would like to thank everyone here for the nice comments about his car. Really made his day!

One GORGEOUS AND RARE STANG!!

Right on Lou! That ain’t no one trick pony! lol!

Dream car.

If I could have one car back out of the 20 or so that I've ever owned, it would be my '68 GT. It was a 390, though.

Thank You for Sharing this Car Story my favorite part 8:18- 9:18

An ALL BUSINESS look to that 428 CJ engine too!!

😎 Trunk Treats and a Marti Report for doccumentation!!

Just one word: WOW! I thought that my hi-chroma red 2018 Stinger GT Limited looked sweet. But it's nothing compared to this. Thanks for sharing!

every now and then even in Milan you can see these old glories of Ford made in the USA, perhaps the European version of the Mustang was the Ford Capri ...

Best looking Muscle car ever made, incl the color.

In the 80s our neighbor had a '69 428 GT... we found out later how rare that was, the Mach 1 replaced the GT early in the model year. I always wonder where those cars of our youth ended up...

Geez, Craig, you didn't tell me you were doing an episode with Lou. Shame shame. Tsk tsk. I coulda come over and cracked jokes in the background, 'cuz you know how I am.

I first saw the concave rear end in 1968, but I've been told they came out in 1967. So, they had 1967 and 1968s with that concave back. Or am I wrong?

The ‘68 1/2 CJ Mustang is still the nicest one made but also the most rare. Watch your knuckles tryin to change spark plugs thou😞

Absolutely beautiful car..... and I'm not a Mustang lover!

What cam and I see an Autolite dual point distributor also . What other goodies in that engine ?

I like keeping revs high

WOW! IS ALL I CAN SAY!!!!!!!!!!

Cool 😀

Whats the cam specs and what is the rear tire size ?This car sounds and looks like a Muscle car should !!

Sounds great as looks a big block in a mustang 5.0 ones eat your heart out

I hear this is the car Steve really wanted but they the Movie company were afraid that he would be passing the Charger too easily. LOL

Very good muffler sound

I shit you not lou as soon as he hit the gas I said wow and you said wow at the exact time in your video that's the only thing that came to mind instantly it was playing a nice idle tune until he pushed that gas and I couldn't I didn't think all I did was just say wow and it was like an echo because you said it the exact time in your video. That is one beautiful mustang. I've owned mustangs foxbodys mustangs and it reminds me of my old Fox body at the time I had to a 93 and a 1992 but when it comes down to it that car is even more beautiful than they were or ever.. That's all that jumped in my head was wow! I don't even want to know how much thatcar is worth but I do know if I own that I would drive it would not just sit in the garage!!!!!!!

First of all the car sounds like 4 Harleys at idle.. Second the Gear Vendor Overdrive is a great addition. You get to retain the Toploader which is bulletproof. I have one in my Mustang with 4:30 gears and the overdrive gives me a final of 3:54. Best of both worlds. In my opinion better than a Tremec Like you I was also a young kid when the Mustang was introduced. It was like hearing the Beatles for the first time. What special times. Plenty of imitators but as they said in the song "the original is still the greatest". As long as you have that ride every time you turn the key you will be a teenager.

That's not a pony? That's a lion's purr

Very nice, hard working pony, as it doesn't appear that that pony knows it is a little old, probably race anything and everything.

🤔🎶📣a sound like that, here in Italy...are five years of jail😀🙋🏼‍♂️

This is the car Frank Bullitt SHOULD have driven, then no obsession with Highland Green...

In school a friend had a 67' with a 289 stock and 50's on back. It would beat a new at the time z-28 with a 4 speed. Old woman T boned him. Then he got a Monte Carlo 454 with swivel buckets. Aaah,, the old days

Downvotes are from COPO Camaro owners who still suffer from Jet-induced flashbacks.

I would like to hear so rubber not the engine

Hood scoop looks outa plce

I absolutely hate this car. Why? Because its not mine! LoL. Seriously though - this Stang rawks da howse! Sadly - one day they will outlaw the internal combustion engine in favor of electric cars (which the manufacturing processes for electric components and batteries pollute the hell out of the air anyway) - I just wish I can get rich enough to grab a car like this and refit it as electric, so at least the spirit of the beast survives. But maybe soon, sane minds will prevail and not doom our legendary beauties to the scrap heaps. I'll not hold my breath on it though.
