1968 Ford Mustangs For Sale

The 1968 Ford Mustang changed very little from the 1967 pony car. Most of the changes were in subtle refinements to the interior and exterior. New options for the 1968 Ford Mustang included an AM/FM stereo radio, rear window defogger (coupe and fastback only), re-designed front power disc brakes, and the all new 302 cid engine. The 302-4V, 230 horsepower engine replaced the 289 Challenger Special of previous years. By December of 1967, the 289 engine was replaced entirely by the 302 version.
