This is a Flower Power Red 1968 Rainbow Of Colors Mustang convertible. It is owned by Don Croft. This was our featured Attitude Of The Week for the week starting January 30, 2011. The Rainbow Of Colors promotion ran on the west coast on 1968 and 1969 Mustangs. They featured special paint offerings in all colors of the rainbow. This one was sold new at Highland Park Motors Inc. in Los Angeles, California. Don tells us, "I bought it back in 2004, and was told by the previous owner it was 'Grabber Orange'. I knew at the time this wasn't correct as Grabber Orange was a '69 color, and bit lighter than the shade of my Mustang. I had wondered since about the correct color, until last year when I stumbled onto your website, which encouraged me to run the Marty Report..." Besides the special order paint, the Marty Report listed the following options: 289-2V Engine, Parchment Power Top w/ Glass Backlite, C-4 Cruise-O-Matic Transmission,
F70X14 Wide Oval Tires, White Sidewall Nylon Tires, Air Conditioner - Selectaire, AM/8-Track Stereo Radio, and Tinted Glass

Check out this blue 1968 Mustang hardtop. Lyndon Hartz had it on display at the 8th Annual Main Street Fight Against Multiple Sclerosis Car Show in Princeville, Illinois. He drag races it! It has a roll cage, a turbo charged 302ci V8, and an automatic transmission. Last year he ran the quarter mile at 11.25 seconds and 121 miles per hour.
This is the left side of Lyndon's Mustang. Fresh from the strip. Check out the tire rubber on the lower rear quarters behind the wheels.
Blue 1968 Mustang hardtop, right rear view. About 17 cars were on display at the show.
Lyndon built the turbo system. Fresh air comes in to an air cleaner in the driver's side fender (lower left corner). It is compressed through the turbo charger, routed back to the front fender and around to the front aluminum inter-cooler, then back into the passenger fender and out across to the carburetor.
The interior is black with custom gray seats.
The car has roll bars and the seat has a racing harness.
Gray 1968 Eleanor Shelby Mustang fastback with Maier racing eleanor body kit.
