A 1967 Mustang Convertible That Hasn't Moved Since 1979

In 1967, Ford gave its beloved pony car a comprehensive styling update, yet the Mustang’s identity remained unmistakable. That year, sales dipped by over 20%, partly due to a growing field of competitors—Chevy’s Camaro, Pontiac’s Firebird, and Mercury’s Cougar all arrived to challenge the throne. But despite the increased rivalry, the ’67 Mustang still captivates collectors today.

This particular convertible appears to have been parked since around 1979—47 years of stillness. The car is presented as a non-running project, likely wearing its original or period-correct finish. The seller notes it has been stored indoors, which may have preserved the floors and frame better than typical barn finds.

Under the hood, the Mustang is equipped with a 289 cubic-inch V8, paired with an automatic transmission—a classic combination for cruising. The convertible top is reportedly intact, though not guaranteed to be operational. With the right restoration, this pony could gallop again, turning heads at local shows or weekend cruises.

The listing appears on Barn Finds, and while the price is not mentioned in the summary, such a project often appeals to enthusiasts seeking a genuine restoration candidate. Whether you’re a seasoned restorer or a first-time classic buyer, this Mustang represents a rare opportunity to revive a piece of late-1960s American motoring history.
