During the restoration, the decision was made to enhance this car's desirability by changing the factory color combination of Sea Foam Green exterior and Lime Gold standard interior to the much more desirable Candy Apple Red with Black interior.According to the Marti Report, it is 1 of 1,236 1968 Mustang R-Codes produced, and one of 1044 Fastbacks made with the 428 Cobra Jet engine. That alone would make it rare in collector car circles. But, the 1968 1/2 (1968.5) Mustang GT R-Code cars came with a specialty designed big block 428 engine with extra performance enhancers that even Shelby Mustangs did not have.Rated at 335 horsepower, it has the 4.30 Traction Lok rear axle ratio which would scream down the road with excellent acceleration and tire shredding torque. They were a terror on the race track. In fact, that is why they were produced by Ford.
