1968 Ford Mustang 'California Special'

We actually saw several of these around the northwest back in the day. A friend of the dad of my best friend growing up bought one of these brand new in the spring of '68. It was red/white stripe kit, and was a 390/4 speed combo. The day he came by with it for the first time, he took us for a ride. We were in 9th grade then, and when we tried to talk him into jumping on it, he gave us the 'ol " I've got to have 500 miles on it, before I do that" speech. That was the only time I rode in it,, and I don't recall him having it very long.
