Cliff Batson calls himself a Chevy guy — but he’s owned this 1968 Ford Mustang GT Fastback in an unusual shade of Lime Gold since 1990, and it’s never left his garage. Under the hood is a drivetrain combo collectors still chase decades later, and the body shares its shape with the most famous car chase in movie history. Watch to find out why a self-described Chevy guy never let this Ford go.
Cliff Batson calls himself a lifelong Chevy guy, which makes his 1968 Ford Mustang GT Fastback — bought in 1990 and still in his garage today — something closer to an exception than a habit. It wears Lime Gold, a color Ford offered for only a few years, and pairs a 9-inch rear end with a top-loader manual that enthusiasts still call one of Ford’s best factory drivetrain combinations. It shares its body style with the Bullitt Mustang, minus the Hollywood color. Watch it run bone stock, three decades into one owner’s care.
