That question you asked?
My answer/ 351c is under the hood of my ride
There´s a lot of good american cars, but (I life in germany) one car is my favorite one. I don´t know why, but I like the silouette. Do you know the car form Templeten "Faceman" Peck =) A 1984 Corvette C4 in white with red strips. Exactly this car 😉
That generation! Too spoilt
Amazing job guys.. loved your work❤
I've been watching you guys for about 7 or 8 months now,I don't even know why ya'll showed up in my watch list, but now I watch every one of your videos, ya'll do a great job.keep'em coming.
For someone thats been asking for the car for so long, i thought she'd have been a lot more excited than she was. Car looks great guys. Excellent job
Some people are just not good at expressing excitement... like me. Also you can't surprise an overthinker. Lol
alot of people are horrible at showing how happy they are about something, my parents bought me my dream car but no matter how hard i tried i couldnt like bounce with excitement but i made sure they knew how much i loved it
Not everybody is good at showing excitement and there's people that have problems showing emotions on camera..
I would say the same thing about the dad, who abandoned the car in the garage 4 years after he got it harrasing his neighbor about it and leaving it there as a shelf.
You will never fully appreciate something unless you work for and bought it yourself.
Showing excitement is natural. The person just doesn't care. Funny how you guys giving excuses to a non car enthusiast.
What a great dad! Hopefully the daughter appreciates this more than she showed, she did not seem too excited, I would be crying if my dad did this for me.
To her defense, she may be reserved. I’m that way, my mom used to get so mad at me and would often call me unappreciative although I was doing flips on the inside.
She knew about this. But some are just that way??!
My first car was a 67 Mustang Convertible. So much fun! Sold it for 67 Corvette fast back. Great car i owned for 5 years.
American muscle cars from mid 50s to mid 70s my favorite. I am in my late 60s now.
Side marker lights were a new requirement in 1968. My dad AND my grandfather both had almost identical 1967 F100 trucks and neither had side marker lights. US government made them mandatory for all 1968 model year vehicles. The lights in the hood are functional turn signal indicators. Not sure why, really as the ones on the dash are there as well.
My '68 was also originaly a vinyl top car. When I got it the original owner had painted it a pure white instead of its original red color. Before I sold it, I had it repainted back to its original red. I never did replace the vinyl on the roof, not many people do. But that is what the trim piece is for on top of the rear quarter panels.
Great car, Great story, and Great history going to an appreciative owner is awesome!
I just peeled the vinyl top off my old Plymouth sedan. Used the trim pieces (re installed) to cover the tape lines, painted the roof just a gloss white to match the underwhelming "Sahara Beige" main color. Luckily, no rot holes or such under the vinyl...that's what it is the best at- trapping moisture & rotting out the roof
Isn't the government great....how many near or at death catastrophes have those lights prevented???
The hood mounted turn signals are useful so you don't take you eyes off the road if you leave a signal on. Chrysler had the fender mounted lights for years and Cadillac had no turn signal lights on the dash at all for years, they only had the fender lights.
Vinyl tops rust like crazy 😂
luckily, just some rust on mine at the welded seams due to the bondo in those spots. Still not rotted through & the rest was beautifully clean@@josephkove6941
That was an excellent job of cleaning and getting the car running again! It's a lovely car. I remember when it first came out, it was that cat's meow! I wish the daughter had shown a bit more gratitude for the awesome gift, especially since she had been asking for it for years. Her Dad was more excited giving it to her than what she was upon receiving it.
Windows of that era had no UV protection, so the rays faded the carpet through the side windows. Looks like (when) the car was parked outside the passenger side was facing the sun for the majority of the day.
That's what I was thinkin.
67-68 Mustangs are basically the same car. The turn signal indicators became mandatory in 68. And the 68 has an ugly steering wheel compared to the 67. The quarters are only different behind the door and with rear turn signal indicator. Beautiful vehicle!
Good work....a car worth saving for sure. You all might consider doing a bit of resto detailing such as re-dying the carpet and door panels, a bit of black touch up on the console face, etc.
The only other thing besides the carb needing a little work is going through the brake system after sitting for so long. The drum brakes aren’t great to begin with but need master cylinder and wheel cylinder rebuilds to make sure it will maybe stop
Yes she will kill herself if the rubber brake lines weren't checked or new master
Cleaned everything but the underside of the hood! 👍
Thinking the same thing!
Same
And left some funky old stickers on the rear bumper.
I know man, I HATE that. That car has not been "detailed".
My thoughts exactly 👍😂😂
Another great detail job, guys. The carpet fibers are molded/created in that color, and UV rays deteriorate certain colors over time. And that plastic chrome on the door panels was a newly developed creation of the fashion world that car manufacturers licensed for this purpose. It wasn't meant to last 50+ years. This car has the optional knitted vinyl upholstery, which was first available as an option on the '67 Cougar. Ford used it a lot into the '80s on various vehicles.
When I was a kid an old car guy told me that when washing a car you start from the top work down not the other way. Thus you are not washing dirt over an area that you just washed.
Detroit loves you guys!!! Another fun video. Those rims are so classic! The music is always so relaxing, even the power washer!
I have an 84’ Dodge Ramcharger with a 350 quad. You guys inspired me to clean under the hood and it came out great!
Absolutely GORGEOUS mustang!! I love that white with the red interior. What a lucky lady to be getting a gem like that! I hope she takes good care of it
the reaction at the end got me an awww, she was so happy to get it! and i can easily say that driving "old" cars are way funnier than new ones lol. such a classic deserves to be on the road again, amazing job guys
We were so happy to be a part of it!
reaction was very bad i think she knew it before
That wasn’t much of a reaction
@@PsunnProductions”oh… thanks”
Wtf😂
Strange you say that, another commenter said her reaction wasn't very convincing
Got our older one a GT350 as a gift for getting a full ride to college- right now it's still in my name, sitting in the back garage. Took one of my Audi's (a D2) to the Air War College for extra schooling there. BTW, unless that car has had a re-spray in modern materials (which it doesn't appear top be), that is single-stage enamel paint. Clear coat was not available. Concerning fuel- all that old stuff? Get rid of it. The ethanol content will dry out the old flex hose, the fuel pump diaphragm, carb seals/o-rings/needles/gaskets/ non-brass floats...you have to use the flex-fuel/ethanol-rated materials or you will have serious issues
First of all, I never would have dreamed that I would be so looking forward to watching videos of a couple of nice young men detailing other people’s cars. Yet, here I am loving your videos and the beautiful classics that you guys are giving a second life to.
This is one of my absolute favorite models. Perhaps it’s because I’m 56 years old, born in’68 and yes, I do mean NINETEEN 68. I’m old, but not that old. lol. This has always been one of my dream muscle cars. My uncle, who sadly passed away in 2020 had a ‘68 when I was much younger. He took me with him in 1986 to pick it up when he first purchased it. He then had it fully restored and held on to it for years and always kept it immaculate. I didn’t realize how much this car meant to me until sometime after he sold it. However, as the years have passed and he has too, I so regret not pressing him to sell it to me because no doubt, he certainly would have.
Enough of my reminiscing and back to watching you fellas making this young lady’s dream come true. Thanks for what you do and keep up the inspiring work.
Well the daughter's reaction was quite underwhelming but the car came out awesome. My best friend had a 66 in high school and when you showed that shifter the memories came flooding back❤
Yeah she's underwhelmed for sure get an alarm somebody gonna do off with it😊😊
As one who worked on and dealt with older cars ,there is carpet dye available from Sherwin Williams that match most any color you desire too dye them. Check it out they can even do color match of this dye.
That mystery yellow stuff is the cheese slice from your McDouble, from 20+ years ago.
I was thinking McDonalds milk shake, but your suggestion sounds good too.
No it is processed cheese food, mixed with smegma.
When I first saw the car in the garage, I said it could never be cleaned this time. I was very wrong, this was the best. It is a car to fall in love with and I watched the master hands with pleasure. Thank you.👍👍👏👏🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Beautiful car, excellent work!! I hope the owner family will provide a new coat of paint, as well as small bodywork repairs... I would like the channel to revisit some customers, so we can find out additional chapters of these wonders, thank you!
If my dad had given me that car I would have lost my ever lovin' mind. That's an awesome car! Y'all did a great job.
I don't understand, you pursued the original owner to sell you the car and then after you bought it you parked it and haven't touched it.
well he said he drove it for 4 years and it was right around that time his daughter was born so it was probably impractical to drive a family around in a 2 door mustang
Life happens! And who knows why he didn’t have the time or funds to do anything with it.
I was just going to say the same thing. Life happens sometimes. It's happened to me. But it was still a smart move because when the time came to use the car in some fashion or another, he had it available to him. All's well that ends well… Other than the daughter not being nearly as grateful as she should've been. At least not outwardly!!!
Right...
Often giving brings the greatest personal satisfaction and joy. I once had an 89 Saleen Mustang. It was #704 on a run of about 750 or so. Bought it new. My daughter was also born in 89. A few months after the build date on the car. It was a most uncommon model. A 25th Anniversary car, (Not a particularly rare thing.) It was a convertible. Most unusual paint (Tropical Yellow Pt. code 66. The top was camel skin (I think that is what it was called). The is pretty rare, according to Steve Saleen's wife, Liz. She's the person who told me a bit of the vehicle's history. The color on the car is the one least used on all Mustangs that year. Mostly 4 banger models. This one was one of three the same year, model, exterior colors combo, etc. However, there were two small point on my car that made in 1 of a kind. It came from the factory with a 3:55 limited-slip, and it was a the only one of the three with that 25th Anniversary emblem on the dash. (That WAS the only thing Ford did to ;specialize' the 25th anniversary of producing the line.
Anyway, my daughter grew up with the car. She began 'crusin' with me as a baby. Lost of local car shows. Stuff like that. She learned how to do basic car maintenance on the Mustang. She laid claim to it in a very subtly fashion. What began as daddy's car soon became our car which eventual became "my car, Daddy." She was about 10 when she declared ownership.
Please allow me to clarify one point. I said I had a 1989 Saleen Mustang. I still do. Sorta: It's still 'stabled' in my garage. It now belongs to my daughter. It is truly her car now, and I couldn't feel better about it. . I signed over the title to may daughter on her 25th birthday. However, I do hope , she finds a garage of her own someday, anyway.. Then again, the Mustang still keeps us together. You know? Crusin'. Stuff like that. Just like years earlier. except now she drives.
The great thing about Mustang’s is that you can point to any part on the car and that part is available.
My dream car, which seems more and more unreachable by now he year, is the 1967 Ford Fairlane, 2-door, bucket seats, with a 289, with automatic, shifter, in the console, XLT, with all that beautiful trim. Hopefully one day I’ll be able to get it. I want one that’s at least straight. Red interior, about the same color as the one in this Mustang.
Your channel's commitment and sincerity are truly special. Congratulations
I'm a sucker for a good detailing vid especially with older cars. I'm even a bigger sucker for a good story like handing down the car to a family member. Great job guys!
Just beautiful!! 68 is my favorite year Mustang
You ID'd the '68 differences correctly - side marker lights, simplified side vents (67 were more expensive to make). Note the console is part of the deluxe interior. Also that red pinstripe is original (my 67 had one). Vented hood was an upgrade for both 67 and 68. Chromed plastic and pot metal was common - pain to deal with today. You may not have shown it, but changing both those fuel filters would have been my first step. The dirty underside of the hood is killin' me! Good work! (Mine: 67 GTA FB, A code)
What a good Dad, I hope she loves it and keeps it in the family.
That under the seat was icecream
As I said in a comment in one of your other videos, EXCELLENT WORK! 👌. PLUS, you guys have COOL MUSIC 🎶!
The dye in the carpet fading, maybe it’s from the heat as shown in the Mustang, it’s near the transmission area. Just a guess.
Hmmm, that could be possible!
Happened in my cousins 65 mustang too. Same area. We were told heat from transmission too
@@jimmykovein8135i would lean more towards the typical sun fading. the door panel is severely worn so clearly before it sat it was out a lot. the angle of the sun coming through the window paired with legs blocking most of the carpet is why it is closer to the center console. also, heat and dye usually get along well so i wouldn't expect the transmission heat from a smaller engine vehicle to be a factor. UV rays and dye however do not get along. keep in mind, just because its been in a shady garage for 20+ years doesnt mean it wasnt faded before he got the car
Agree, car is 56 years old. My 68 had same issues with carpet fade, our strong California sun definitely was the cause over years of exposure.
Self cleaning and used the stuff that contained bleach,
You really REALLY brought this car back to life! It looks great and hopefully the car will bring her many smiles per mile… I love the burgundy interior, I wish those would make a comeback, great job!
Jesus, I would've lost my mind if my Dad had handed me those keys...all he got was "thanks." Oh well.
I would have been in the car and starting it the minute he gave me the keys lol. Let's ride
Exactly you can tell the difference between privilege card you could tell also how different these type of races are compared to others. If it was me, my dad wouldn’t do anything for me. I would have to done everything myself even if it’s a reward.
How nice that car just came looking so good. As some else said go though the brake system. Change all the oils power steering antifreeze transmission . The early mustangs and thunder birds were some of my favorite cars . I also have a big love for Mopar. Great video guys.
That’s a turn signal hood and was specific to 67/68 Mustangs with certain trim packages. 67 had the two faux scoops and the 68 did not, it just had the ornamental trim pieces. The marker lights in the lower fender and rear quarter panel did not start until 68.
and the C4 tranny and center console with the deluxe interior are the more valuable than anything on the car. My 68 had those. they need to repair the bushings on the shift linkages though. it was sloppy loose!
@@jodycollins7326 don't you people have a clue about cars in the first place and take notice of their different ways of them both Jesus Christ people get a clue to what you are talking about in the first place
@@rodneyhopper22 so what about my response do you believe is incorrect?
It looks like the goooo, from a flipped over sticky mouse trap!
she's gonna sell it the moment she's off camera isnt she...or at least finding an excuse to
Thank you for showing the cleaning of the seatbelts. I’ve often wondered what you did to clean what is often a very rough part.
Side markers on cars first appeared in 1968.
The more ya know!
My best friend of 60 years, had the same year Mustang with the 3 speed transmission...and he sold it to one of our high school buddy's sistee. The last time I was back in my hometown, she was still driving that same car to her Real Estate office that was just a 2 minute drive from my parents house. Those early Mustang were definitely built to last!.
The wrong people end up buying these cars. How can they justify neglecting and letting these beautiful cars SIT for decades in garages, barns, lots, etc, etc. ? He chased it for a decade plus and then let it sit????
I agree.
One day I'll get the money, one day I'll get the time... I don't get it. If I wanted to make something out of a vintage car I would fix the deadline & secure the budget, with safety margins. Having those cars rotting away makes no sense.
Sometimes life gets in the way. At least it was stored in a garage and not in a field with a blue tarp on it. I’d love to have that mustang.
He preserved it.
I see yo missing the bottom part of the hood on many cars, but I still love your videos good job guys ❤
rip to the smiley face. 8:40
8:35 you mean lol
A lot of classics have been “partially restored” at some point, and an easy way to make a carpet look new is to dye it or spray it. That’s just dye coming off.
How dare you power wash over smiley face
Great job getting the dead mice outta there. Would have been cool to see the motor run a little better, but.. in due time.
What about the underside of the hood and the engine bay?
We did those too off camera!
I really want to see how your seam sealer turns out. I thought of practicing on an old door to see what it takes to make it look oem. Also, before you mount your bus bar, if you are running fender liners, if you already haven't put one in place, it might a good idea to see if it interferes with the wiring. I think I ran my bus bar just above my horns. I can't wait to see your end result...looks awesome!!
Over time the carpet will change color due to oxidation. That is a simple nylon, level loop carpet that will easily take a dye. Ford reds would turn pink or even an off grey or slightly off brown. I used to pull the carpet, power wash it, dry it well, then hand dye it with a wet sponge using Rit dye. After it thoroughly dries, the loops will feel very stiff. Go over it with a stiff dry nylon brush and it will return to a normal feel. As a student studying automotive service back in the seventies, I would buy, detail, service, and flip vehicles to help with tuition. Did a '67 Mustang convetible with oxidated/faded carpet that came out like new.
This is one of the best videos I've seen yet. Not only did you make the car great looking, but you got it running too. I would do the same for my daughter, too. It might be perfect, but it works and looks and runs good for how long it sat. Keep up the good work. God bless everyone involved in this video.
My first car was a 1967 Mustang, gold with a black landau roof. Second car was a 1970 Mustang bright yellow fastback 289 HP. Loved the Mustangs!
That’s such a beauty. Hailey you are a lucky girl to have this classic. Keep is as original as possible. Good luck and drive safe
Ritt cloth dye from Walmart will fix the faded carpet. Easy fix detailing tip. Those carpets where made of early polyester material and were not "color fast". Which makes them easy to dye too.
I am so happy for the young lady. I bought a 1967mustang new. Then family grew, sold it 1970. Bought a station wagon😂😂I loved my car.👏👏👵🏻
I was a senior in 71 I had a 68 burgundy mustang exactly like that it had a full front bench seat . But the back of the seat looked like bucket seats.
Now it needs some more work.
Front drum brake to disk brake conversion.
Integral power steering upgrade.
Suspension bushings. Points to magnetic pickup distributor, fix the carburetor.
Compression check. Transmission check.
Chrome polish on aluminum rims?
Here in Australia we had the whole GM vs Ford thing going, both brands were built here however they were both closed down by the bosses in the USA but having been in the automotive industry for the majority of my working life, the first time l drove a BMW, an E30 325i, had me hooked and I’ve driven V8 BMWs ever since, the ultimate driving machine ❤
Nice work. I used to have a '68, same color in and out. Used to drive it around Fairview Park.
I loved seeing you discover all the quirks with the 68 mustang, the door handles blew my mind too! I own a 68 coupe, so this was so fun to watch!
2 minutes in and I can already see that this guy is the best dad in the world ❤
Pěkné video...👍👍 Líbí se mě , že vždy skvělí chlapci z WD Detailing udělají na závěr celé akce někomu radost. Vždy je na obou stranách spokojenost...! A ještě by mě zajímalo , kolik myší z těch mnoha aut při této práci vytáhli...!!!!🐭🐭🐭🐭🐭🐭🐭🐭
2 minutes in and I can already see that this guy is the best dad in the world
You asked about dye on the carpets? Think about it. it`s a 55 year old car. dyes were probably done in mouse blood. Bam! Just a thought why so many carcasses..They just got a dye die job done.. No seriously though. We`ve advanced so much over 55 years with tech and everythig else. It`s a bridge to the past. Just like the tims on the doors. Top end stuff then but leaps and bounds since `68. Good job guys. I love the channel. Keep going!
Hi! I am watching you from Russia. You're so cool, guys! I do not know the same channel about detailing in my country. Continue in the same spirit (sorry for my english)
Had a 66' GT Fastback with a balanced and blue printed 289 Holly 750 Holly double pumper, Hurst 4 speed tranny ahead of a Dana 9 in. rear end! I still owned all the original hood, carb and wheels. By far the best car I ever owned and now that I'm older often kick myself for selling it!
The interior door handles were also 68 specific. That console was an option based on the trim package chosen or it was an optional add on as well that could be ordered when the car was new. The 68 console was padded where the one for 67 was just plastic.
As someone who grew up with the muscle care I love American from the 64 GTO to the 70 Chevelle. Owned a 63 vette, a 65 GTO and a 69 Chevelle. The. Marriage and kids. Don’t regret any of it.
Excellent story. The daughter didn’t seem excited could be rehearse a little too much very obvious. 1968 Mustang first year of the 302 engine. Rare color combination for sure ! Good job on the presentation.
Great work guys! Nowadays it is difficult to find an old vehicle in as good condition as this one.
Old trucks, but the transformation of any vehicle is all that really matters. You guys are awesome!
Had a 65. Guess it makes me strange but prefer notchback models. Now I have 22 EcoBoost premium.
It’s yogurt or ice cream. They spilled it between their lap and down the front seat. That’s why it was right in the front of the front seat. I’ve done that exact same thing. And the other question is mold. The colors on older polyester was not as advanced as today. They just simply fade. Many colors actually do this. Even natural crystals can lose their color. But this is usually due to sun.
I had a 2014 ford mustang convertible. It was super amazing to drive around in the summertime. It was my 30th birthday gift from my Mama. Unfortunately, I had traded it in for less expensive car at the time for unexpected financial reasons. I really miss my Mustang. Best car I ever had!! I hope to win the lottery so I can get another Mustang again!! I am fan of the Mustang of any year 1960's to 2017
The fade in the carpet is just the sun shining on it frequently. The interior is so different from your other Mustang because it is the deluxe interior option.
Awesome video!! A complete tune-up go through the brakes fuel system and some Ford interior spray dye. You'll have an awesome awesome car
Growing up in the 90s my parents had a 68 red Mustang coupe just like that one, ours had a 302 (which 68 was the first year for the 302). Pretty good memories with that car. It had the Crager SS/T wheels. Such a fun car. Funny enough those two pockets in the center console are actually for the seatbelts
What a good father for passing down a sweet car down to his kid
The door discoloring is oil and can be cleaned with some thinner on a cloth as for the carpet that was vegetable die and that runs into the rest of the color
Wow! I was looking for a lot more of a thankful reaction to her dad for this. I guess kids are just different today.
@@Fkutb1234 keep in mind that kids today don't have a clue to what we know about this subject people who weren't born in our life time during when real cars were built not these wannabe cars that we have of today so keep in mind when you mention it to them about this situation
once it was running, I would've done a complete Tune Up, plugs/wires, Cap/rotor , oil /trans fluids & Carb, ALT Belts. It was really Rich when he drove off @ 27:20 it probably had a point's issue to. I Really like my 65 Wimbledon white Mustang coupe!!!
Classic American muscle. I have a 1969 Mustang coupe myself and couldn’t be happier.
The Yellow stuff under the passenger seat next to the mouse corpse was what was left of oner of the sticky pads used on those mouse traps. Looks like it got stuck to said dead mauz causing it's death..
I always liked it when you get them to run after all your hard work making them look like new again. 👍
Father and son brilliant I love you guys you brought that pony back to life
Great video guys. My favourite muscle car. We should treasure and look after these classic cars. 💙👍🏻
that old Mustang was in pretty good shape. Did you guys clean the under side of the hood and trunk lid?
On the handle, those were due to many changes that took place for safety in 1968. Protruding handles had to be flat to eliminate passenger injuries in accidents. Soft plastic chrome was another safety idea. Side marker lights were another thing. I bet that disgusting yellow stuff is something that came out of one of those critters.
Regarding the "hood scoops," they're actually hot air extractors, to help keep the engine cool.
My first car was a '69 Mustang coupe w/ a 302, Automatic. It had one center hood scoop with turn signals in it. To me , that was really cool. It also had its original 8 track with four cassettes in the glove box😊 It was Lime Gold Green with a deep green interior. I wish I had been smart enough to have kept that car ! 😢 That said, I love this white '68 ❤
She seemed very happy to me - she was beaming the whole time!
im from the uk and have a big passion for classic/historic rally cars, like the ford mk1 and mk2 escorts, vauxhall chevette hsr's, some of the group b rally cars like the peugeot 205 t16 or the audi quatro, amazing cars for their time
I love American muscle cars. I grew up in the 50s and 60s which produced many of the classic muscle cars that we know and love.
I’m a Chevy guy and love Corvettes in particular. My favorite muscle car is the Chevelle.
I love it ♥️ thank you young gentlemen for helping this father & his daughter, in making her dream come true 💪 🇱🇷
I have an 88 Mustang Gt convertible that I bought new. I have a 94 Mercury Capri built in Australia, and 2012 Mx5 Miata Grand Touring with a PRHT. I love all of them. The Miata is my daily driver. The 68 model had to be equipped with government mandated safety features . The marker lamps were part of the changes
