1967 Ford Mustang Hardtop
When the Mustang hit the market, there was nothing like it. It was perfect for young hip adults and the talk of the new teen scene. Today, first generation Mustangs, 1965-1973, are highly sought after by classic car enthusiasts. The restoration process can be quite tedious and time consuming, but rewarding. The owner of this '67 Hardtop had this to say about restoring his Mustang: "That was my retirement therapy. It took about 1.5 years to complete. Got a lot of help from Dr. Mike Jansen, who taught me and tutored me throughout the process. He painted it the color of my '02 GT, torch red. I am real proud of it because I touched nearly all parts of the car; cleaning rust off the bolts, scraping old paint, taking it apart and putting it back together again. It is not a 25K show piece, but I love to drive it and it does turn peoples heads." ~ Rodney Love Special thanks to the owner, Rodney Love, for permission to photograph his beautifully restored classic!
