- I review a 1967 Ford Mustang with the 289 V8 Engine. What do you think about this car and the idea of vintage car reviews? Huge thanks to Brogan for letting me drive his car!

My dad owned a '67 Mustang in his youth until he crashed it into a tree racing down the street against a Camaro. All that was left was his ash tray and gas cap, he now has them in display cases.
P.S. He won the race.
haha , that's awesome dude , he raced an ss ?
Fake news
He started the mustang owner imagine
He didnt win the race if he crashed into a tree lol
Fast and furious Tokyo drift opening scene
Classics are the best.
yes finnaly someone gets me!!!!!!
+Nick Murray Nick - love ya baby but I don't know if you'd rather daily a 1967 BMW 2000 C/S over your M4?
Agreed
@@Scotty_in_Ohio no i would rather ride in a 67 mudtsn than any bmw
How i love the sound and the cabin smell of those old classic cars. Its like the old wine
Being from the U.K. I know nothing about American cars but know a '67 mustang is legendary.
madvillainy
Franky Leandri great album
Vintage review FTW 👍🏼 don't really see vintage review these days so it's a breath of fresh air with this! Also learned a lot!
I agree
+Tj Hunt Thanks TJ!
"Let's give it a little gas and see how it does"
*Nothing happens*
I laughed so hard at that!
Haha
When you floor it but you have turbo lag XD (i know it's not boosted, I made a meme joke)
AngelofSpeed 991 GT3 and it has nos
+Charles Anderson You don't "floor" a classic like that unless you put in a modern drive line.
Easy way to find how much horsepower the engine has is by checking the vin. If the 5th letter is a c it's a 289 2barrel(200hp), an A is 289 4V(220hp) and lastly a K 2894v HiPo(271hp).
This car also weighs as much as a miata.
That's how little cars used to weigh
yeah none of that "safety" nonsense.
+Tiberius Hrafn-Úlfur No Miata has ever been 2800 lbs, what are you talking about?
The 67 weights just about the same as the 65, around 2500lbs an NC Miata weighs that much. What are you talking about?
Tiberius Hrafn-Úlfur It's pretty clear what I'm talking about. You said this car weighs as much as a Miata. So I told you how this car doesn't weigh as much as a Miata
And it's pretty clear you're wrong
This guy is brilliant . Constantly smiling
you should review more classic cars, that would be really cool to see.
you should make an armored suit and fly around, that would be cool to see.
+nickL7389 XD best day of my life!!
+nickL7389 hahahahaha
Hey Tony I hear your stocks are dropping 😂
@@thejourneymen4907 I blame Bucky Barnes.
That music and old filter really made the intro look amazing :)
+GustavLjungberg Thanks Gustav!
They really don't make them like they used to with all metal everything.
+Hank Hill If the government would ever quit running down the value of the dollar, maybe we will see it again in the future.
+Charles Satterthwaite That's also why a lot of old cars rust lol.
+Hank Hill Yeah the good old days when you would hit a stationary object going 15 mph and die.
+Hank Hill I remember my Dad and uncles saying the exact same thing about cars in the 60s and 70s; "They don't make them like they used to" and "Look at all that cheap plastic." It's funny. I grew up driving those 60s and 70s cars and I think modern cars are way, way, better and way cooler. It's all what you like I guess. I think the level of comfort, precision, and quality is immensely better in new cars. Plastic, that cheap, brittle, easy to crack, cost saving material, sure has come a long way since 1967. While this review brings back fond memories, I'm keeping my BRZ, thanks (talk about acres of cheap plastic...)
Alan Antill It really has. It's just that 1990's GM plastic that has tainted the rep of plastic. It's no that they were bad cars either, it was just chitsy things like flimsy turn-signal stalks that just make you go "really?" when you touch them.
The manual transmission will really wake this car up.
That was so much fun to watch, Matt, I would love to see more Vintage Cars on your channel 👍👍👍😃
+TheGetawayer Thanks Guido!
+subaruwrxfan Yes! More classic cars!
oh hell yes please do more vintage cars. this review put a big smile on my face the whole time watching.
This and the 2005-2009 Mustangs are my favorite cars.
I love the vintage car reviews! Most people just show an old car's exhaust note and it driving from an outside view, but these high quality, in depth reviews like this are wonderful! I would love to see old reviews as much as the new stuff. I also think it would be really neat if you did more cars from the 80's, such as Foxbody cars, and an IROC Camaro.
One of the best years of the Mustang
you really did this car justice with that intro and that awesome review. the 67' is my absolute dream car but in a manual. i would take this over a Bugatti or a lambo. i just cant get over it. and i need it. one day ill own this.
Daniel Diaz high performance cars r overated. the most id spend on any car would be 15k at absulute most
@@xan_carman4216 that's cause the people who get those cars can usually afford
The classic car scene is alive and better then ever! I've been around it my whole life, since my granddad builds classics (we're currently building a 1937 Ford Coupe) and being around these old cars and trucks, is what really gets me going. Now that I'm building me a classic (1974 Ford F100 RANGER XLT) just really puts everything into perspective! Great video, and be sure to do more of them!
Matt, I’ve been subscribed to your channel for a couple months. I really really enjoy your reviews, because you step away from technical data of a car 🚗. While the numbers do play a roll that is where it starts. You critique a car as “it’s a blast 💥 to drive “. Your enthusiasm towards driving is refreshing. Keep it up 👍
So good to see such a well-preserved classic car. Great review Matt!
Now THAT'S a car!! I haven't been so excited for one of your reviews for a while!
LOVE your enthusiasm and insight. We share a passion for these classic 'Stangs. Keep up the good work!
classic cars are my favorite. They just look and feel so amazing
I love that you love this era cars... I've owned 2x 65's, a 83, and now a 69. Old school is the best school.
Loved this review, I love the old 60's late 50's cars of course I love the mustang.. it's a legend
I love the idea of vintage reviews! I also love your modded- cars review! Keep up the good work!
Keep doing the vintage reviews. It's fascinating. I believe there are intangible characteristics in the driving experience of the vintage cars, that if somehow could be identified and replicated, would make for some very awesome modern cars.
I own a 65...but love the 67 too. Cool video, nice to see you appreciated the old classic.
hey Matt! I've been watching your channel for a very long time and I love how you really go in depth on your car reviews keep up the great work!
your fan,
Lucas
Great review I was born in 1967 my father brought home a dark green 1967 mustang 289 3 speed manual integrated turn signals in the hood I learned how to drive in this car many great memories I was all smiled watching this video
love the way you are cruising around in this one! enjoyed it. thanks! Jolanda from Switzerland
Very cool! You made the whole video itself feel retro, even with the places you took the car for the review.
I enjoy watching retro reviews.. cars from the 90's.. 60's.. I'm in!
I really like this video Matt! I love the intro scene in this video, the music and tint was absolutely perfect. Well done! 👏
+The Tameless Creeper Thanks!
Those economy car underpinnings cannot be denied. Still a thrill to drive one of these.
I've been hoping you'd review a classic mustang for months now.. My day has been made.
A few things from a 67 mustang owner I have had mine for 18 years. The one your driving needs the steering box adjusted to tighten up the steering they don't handle like a new car but it looked a little excessive in the video it probably needs the rest of the front suspension checked over it doesn't take a large amount of play in a suspension component to cause a lot of play in the steering wheel. The one in the video looks to be the base 289 "c" code with 200 ish hp. there were 3 options for the 289 in 67 it was not the compression ration. the c code was the base 289 it had a 2 barrel carb, The A code had a 4 barrel carb, and the K code! Its also had a 4 barrel carb and a solid lifter cam, dual exhaust and a few other diffrences and made 271hp this was what the Shelby gt 350s were built from. I will say a set of real end gears really wake them up with the 3 speed auto they geared them for hwy fuel economy It probably has a 3.00 gear or worse! But they can cruse all day at 75-80mph I have the factory power steering on mine and I added power brakes and disk brakes and I used factory parts not one of the cheap china made kits on the market and it made it much nicer to drive! And after almost 20 years of owner ship I still love it! Not the fastest muscle car from the 60s but Its still fun to drive! The more crap that comes on new cars the more I appreciate the simplicity of my mustang! It doest beep or bong at me. It doesn't tell me to put my seatbelt on it never has a check engine light on and it has been very reliable! If it has a hot battery and fuel in the carb it will start and run! It sat for 8 months one time I put a new battery in it pored fuel in the carb and it started the first kick of the switch like it was running all day!
wasn't expecting this! Great job, Matt
Neat video. Not enough classic car reviews on the web these days. Really enjoy your reviews man.
Yes please! Keep up the classic reviews as well!
Great way to spice up your channel! Keep doing classic reviews.
Happy that you can appreciate this car. You actually drove😊. Can you imagine texting, dialing, whatever while driving this? My sis' had one and I cried when she sold it. I'll be 55 next week.
AWesome man! would love to see more old cars if you can find em!
Maybe some day you’ll have a big enough channel to do a review of your own lol
@@adamperry6133 lol if only
OMG I just love that door bang sound!
i loved this guy's enthusiasm and nervosism
25 years old. Bought my first classic car a few weeks ago for 8 grand! Absolute steal for the condition it was in. All body work done, just needs paint. It also came with a 289 hipo!!!!
Learned how to drive on a '66 with a 289 2bbl, 3 on the floor, and manual steering/brakes.
Best way to learn to drive!
That's one beautiful original mustang.
This is a wonderful review. Really nice. Thanks for all the great vids.
pleasant change of pace, more indeed would be awesome!
Great review as always Matt!
My dad owns a '67 mustang i drove her once and she didnt require many corrections but great review man the car is truly a legend
Push to start didn't come standard?!
Integrafreak1 nope voice command lol
And you push the throttle down fully and release to set the choke. For cold starts
In East Europe we had push to start standard. You had your friend push your car and then you might be able to start
Thanks for doing the review. We have a 1966 that is set up the same way - red out, black in, 289 auto, stock except for radials. It is a step back in time but there is nothing like it.
Awesome car! I'd love to see more classics on your channel. Keep up the good work!
My first car in 1986 was a 1965 Buick Skylark with the 355 "Wildcat" v8 (300 cid) - cars definitely were different back then and it's really easy to forget (or perhaps never know/understand) that driving was way more dangerous and much much more involved. I laugh every time someone who's never owned a vintage car seems to think it would be great and nostalgic - that nostalgia wears off quickly the first hot day in that vinyl interior or when trying to start the car in a 10 degree morning and they flood the engine ;-) Would be nice to have an old car for cruising around in but not as a daily driver. Great review as always!
Really enjoyed this review :) great job Matt!!
Seeing this car brings back so many memories. My dad had a 67 just like this. Same motor and everything. It was just a little more hot-rodded than this one. He passed away from cancer when I was 12, and we had to sell it to keep the house. I still wish we kept it. On the bright side, the guy that we sold it to is restoring it for his son. It sucks that I'm not the owner anymore, but at least it isn't rotting away in a field somewhere.
The Steering Reminds me
of my Dad Classic
1978 FORD F100 RANGER
SHORT BOX
HAD A 6.6 ENGINE
BUT REPLACED IT WITH A
5.0 FORD CROWN VICTORIA.
STILL RUNS GREAT
LOVE IT!!!!!!
Never Will Sell This Truck
It Brings Great Memories.
67' really is a beaut. Good review per usual Matt!
Definitely having fun in there, and looking great too. The 289 has a great reputation from so much I've read and heard, similar to the timeless small block Chevy V8.
Great review. When you think about it, all a guy 'needs' in a car besides speed and style, are heat and air. Those classic Mustangs (and many other vintage cars) have all of that, and a body shape that will never ever go out of style throughout all the up & down trends.
Awesome review Matt. I definitely think you should do more vintage car reviews.
Had one in the 90 tees...spots edition ( with the fog lights), top loader 4 speed, best car of my life...
I really like the intro music of this video, it fits perfectly to the classic car
Great video, Matt!! You should definitely do more vintage car reviews if possible since this kind of cars are an important part of the car culture... I'd love to see a nice 50s T-Bird and things like that!!
It's a good thing the brakes are touchy and the steering is imprecise it means you get to know the car better and can really appreciate how much more control you have
I enjoy the fact that you took into consideration that it's a 50 year old car, that it's not going to have any modern feels so good job on that and also like the fact that you seem so excited to be in that car, and rightfully so it's a great piece of history!
Would love to see some more classic reviews! So cool!
keep the classic reviews coming!
I would love to see vintage vehicles on this site. I had a 68 302 GT coop in high school.
Really enjoyed this Matt
i dont usually like mustangs, but that 1967 pony looks absolutely gorgeous! my god!
I had a 66 mustang it needed no correction to keep it straight.It drove extremely well
I really enjoyed how happy you were while reviewing this car. Yet, again another great video Matt! :) you should review the newer scion tc's.
My old man has an 83 Chevy Silverado. Obviously not as aged but still old enough to know what you mean by the needed steering input in order to keep it straight. Needless to say, it is a little intimidating to drive just because of it's sheer size alone. Loved this review Matt. At car shows, I'm always with the classics a little longer than any others on display. I hope you get access to more classics in the future man because you seem most at peace behind the wheel of one. And I enjoy seeing that. Good job man!
iRobYourLunch That's sounds awesome man I have a 96 Ford F150 with 5.0L Windsor V8 with 203,407 miles on it and it's still going strong.
A guy in my town owned a blue on white one... Sad to say he sold it for a honda accord :/
What a fuckin loser
paraunasahb 😂😂
I'm sure he has his reasons
He should've gotten 5 years in jail.
Love the car and your personality!
Great review, I love classic Mustangs.
Love this car - one of my favorite models!
Yes. Love it. More videos like this would be awesome!
Really nice! I would like to see more classic old school car reviews please!!
I loved the video Matt! Great job on the intro and if you are ever in Dallas there is a 71 beetle waiting for you.
I’m 15 and I’m hopefully buying one of these Soon and I hope to restore make it look brand new. I just love the way they look so much.
The ‘65 I inherited rides like a cloud. Modern cars can’t hold a candle to the comfort of the ride. Great video, hope you enjoyed the experience!
I'm glad I learned to drive in a '69 Mercury Station Wagon. What a boat that was! :)
Nice review...I got to drive my buddy's 1968 fastback Mustang, his brakes were horrible and took forever to stop, he also had the factory drums so maybe the owner of this car upgraded the brakes.
Loved the review It would be great to have more vintage cars on the channel
Beautiful Car beautiful video Awesome job Matt !!!
Brings back Great Memories from my teenage years, first year for the larger tail lights. The 289 Engine was one of the Best Engines that Ford has Made....
Well this was a pleasant surprise when I saw the thumbnail, wasn't expecting it! Try and review more classics if you can, they are awesome and it will help bring a wider audience to your channel! Keep at it :)
im in the market for a coupe...cant wait to finally get one. this video just further helps solidify my decision to get a restocar.
Please do more of these :D I love the old American muscle, it's so beautiful
more vintage car reviews please! that was great
Thanks! My dream car since i was 14!
I have a 1965 Mustang as my daily driver. I love it, especially because maintenance and repairs are so easy. I have the 200 c.i. 6 cylinder engine. The car feels very light and nimble.
Review a 1986/1987 Grand National. I'm sure many car enthusiasts such as myself would be eager to watch it.
Had one just like it same color, just white interior and had the scoops on the hood with the blinkers. Just as nice as that one. Back in 83 When I got to Woodbridge Va. I bought it. I was 18. Right after I got a job at Cope Ford dealership, detailing cars. Would pull it in the bay on Friday and detail it for the weekend. Was digging around in the glovebox and found the original sales slip on it. Was bought at that dealership in 67 by Hertz rental. Showed it to the owner and everyone and they had a fit. Let me park it up front anytime I wanted to. Was always fun pulling one of the fox body GT's around back to detail it. Trust me when I say, the customer always got a taste of what their car would do lol. Never really got in trouble for it ether. they all must have liked it. Good times. Wish I still had it.
