The seller offers for sale this 1967 Ford Mustang Hardtop Coupé 289 C-Code, powered by a 4.7-litre 289 cubic inch V8 engine, paired with an automatic transmission. This is a factory C-Code car, delivered new with the 289 V8 and automatic gearbox, and it retains that original drivetrain configuration today. The car was originally supplied in California before making its way to Europe, and it is presented in a deep dark green that suits the Mustang’s proportions particularly well. The odometer reads 26,509 miles.
The car has seen both technical and cosmetic work over recent years, carried out with the intention of preserving its classic character. The bodywork presents tidily with good panel fit, and the car has been resprayed in its current dark green. The engine has been apart and partially rebuilt, with photographs of the work available, and the rear axle was addressed at the same time. Equipment includes power steering, front disc brakes in place of the original front drums, a dual exhaust system and American Racing alloy wheels. Inside, various components have been renewed, giving the cabin a fresh appearance while retaining the period atmosphere. The car is supplied with European registration papers and the documentation required for use within Europe.
The Mustang needs little introduction. Launched in April 1964, it created the pony car segment almost overnight and became one of the fastest-selling cars in American history, with more than a million examples finding homes within the first two years. The 1967 model year brought the first significant restyling: a slightly wider and longer body, a more aggressive concave rear panel, a deeper grille opening and revised interior. It is a year many enthusiasts consider the sweet spot, combining the purity of the original design with a more muscular stance and, for the first time, the option of big-block power.
The C-Code designation refers to the two-barrel 289 cubic inch V8, a small-block engine celebrated for its smoothness, its willingness to rev and its reputation for durability. It delivers the unmistakable V8 soundtrack the Mustang is known for while remaining an easy, tractable companion on the road, particularly when paired with the automatic transmission. Combined with power steering and front disc brakes, the result is a classic that is genuinely usable rather than merely displayable.
Hardtop coupés remain the most accessible entry into 1967 Mustang ownership, yet an honest, well-presented C-Code car with a Californian past, sorted mechanicals and European paperwork occupies a distinctly appealing position in the market. This example offers a straightforward route into one of the most recognisable shapes of the twentieth century.
