- I had the pleasure of exploring a 40 year old collection of Rare Mustangs I ran across. The 85 year old man was not only generous but full of great stories and even allowed me to make an offer on a Fastback.
You don't want to miss this episode of Lost and Found Classics. There's a few really RARE Mustangs on the property we will explore towards the end of the video. I think you'll have a good time and feel my own excitement as you watch.

Most farmers grow wheat, corn, or sorghum. That one grows classic Mustangs, a regular field of dreams.
Facts!
@@mattfarahsmillionmilelexus of course. Plenty of HOA dwellers that call their wife’s dining room tables their workshop, lol.
69 428 cobra jet is my dream car, hurts to see them all sitting like that but the fact that they still exist is mind boggling. Would love to see them saved
I hope to be able to save the car some day. It's tucked away and I have a great relationship with the guy. He's 85 and it doesn't seem like the family is actually too interested in the cars.
I heard in "2025" they're going to start making the Mustangs the old school look, Like A reproduction 60's Mustang also the Fastback and convertible with a lot of horsepower..I had a Ford pickup truck 1971 with a 390 motor..That Motor was a real Beast it even sounded great even in a pickup truck..Also had an 80s Mustang 5.0 with 700 horsepower..Can't wait to see if they do come out with the old school Mustangs in 2025= Big-Bucks-💰💰
Out of all my regrets, its my 1973 Mach 1! Black on red. Black Super Deluxe interior, loaded with all options, and the 351 Cleveland 4V ram air car! I had just started my family, and needed something better for them! MAN, I wish I had that car back!
It's a crying shame to let those beautiful cars rot. Unbelievable 😢
Agreed!
Seriously a sad shame they coulda been inside staying beautiful as they were when parked
@@youtubeuploads7208 I'm not sure they where beautiful when they were parked.
As I’ve said in many U Tube clips before.. Only in America!!!!! Half these people hold on to these wrecks saying they have Bob or bill in the wings or won’t sell for “one day I’ll get to them “ !!! In the end Mother Earth get em !!
@@woodwelder Fortunately, Earth didn't get the 67 Fastback. I brought that one home.
That’s what you call a great day in the random car searching world
It was THE BEST!
Awsm find. Im that strange guy that seen the pinto amongst the royalty. Haha
It was classic car overload for sure!
How can they mean anything sentimental and you leave them rotting and fully engulfed in the grass open to the weather.
When the kids finally get them they’ll be even more Roached. 🤦🏽 Thanks Pa.
That what I was also thinking!
These guys who do that are just fools and there are no more other things. Just sell it and enjoy that somebody wants to restore it.
@@westcornergroup4375 they get them cheap and wait for the fools to show up and pay a premium price for rotting steel. I am with you on the fact that these would be better off with a good home and restored, just don't give these people the money they don't deserve.
Sadly, you are correct. The 67 wouldn't be as bad of shape as it is if they didn't leave it sitting outside.
The 428 Cobra Jet car sits there with the window open.
I plan to go back in a couple weeks and get the window rolled up. I also hope to help him organize the cars a bit.
He's got a small block 71 coupe in the garage thats junk but the 428 Cobra Jet car sitting outside with the window open.
Go figure!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaamen
@@westcornergroup4375💯💯💯💯💯
A buddy in high school in 1981 had a 390, 67 Fastback. That whip was an absolute BEAST and it was beautiful and in great condition
My Father had one when I was a kid, it's the first classic car I drove when I was 16.
I have a lot of history with the 67 S code. They are incredible cars!
1981 a friend of mine at maple wood high school had a 1967 fastback . I think it was dark blue metallic with two tone blue interior. It was a 390cu . I had a 1967 fastback with a 289cu dark blue with two tone blue that same year. We were the only ones in high school that year with fastback mustangs at Maplewood in Nashville. Tn. I keep my car 15 years then I sold it . I miss the mustang now. 😢
@@phillipanderson2607
Dennis Collins just dug out one exactly like this "blue-on-blue" S code Mustang.
So,you can try to get it !!!!!😊
Thanks! That was fun. I'm a new '65 mustang owner.
Welcome to the family! And thanks for watching. Be sure to subscribe for more fun finds like this one. I do a lot of Old Mustangs.
I absolutely love those 64 1/2 and 65 mustangs .
So glad a guy like this gets to buy his dream car !
Thank you for celebrating this with me!
@@LostandFoundClassicsparts get remade ? Or found again ??
But why not remade. Just need factory book/specs for every part, so any car can't be redone to completion :)
Yes ??
What company does that sorta thing ?? Remakes parts
@@joestitz239 There are several companies out there who own the original Ford Molds and remake the original parts.
Do a series on the build id like to watch it come alog
The channel is more dedicated to finding and rescuing classic cars rather than documenting the restoration process. Although I would greatly enjoy documenting every restoration I do, the time it takes to work and film at the same time makes it very difficult to accomplish.
It's a great idea, I just cant pull it off without a videographer since I restore these cars myself.
Thanks for watching!
Cool find and definitely the nicest color. Will be stunning when restored. 1 of 9 is nice to brag about too. Good luck and god speed.

Sounds like the borgs in star trek😂
One of nine😊
@@josefinagarza241 Live long and Prosper my friend!
It's sad for the way it is but I would love to see the out come when you are done, finishing line is the best
Thank you!
I’d sure like to meet this guy, shake his hand and thank him for not selling these for scrap like a lot of people did!
He's a great guy!
I'm glad for your purchase. That said, seeing things like this is aggravating beyond belief. Those cars sitting out there rotting away is a disgrace.
It's very unfortunate.
I wouldn't just walk past a 67 anything without checking it out 😁. Great find, I'm jealous.
Thank you!
As a new mustang owner myself (17' GT PP1 s550, MT-82 car). I've got a new love of everything mustang. These old finds get me some kind of excited, thanks for getting this on video for us. I'd love to see more of the cars, spoken for or not or possibly the owner telling what stories he has on the cars, VinWiki style. 👌
Hey man, Thanks for watching and congrats on your new Mustang.
I considered interviewing the owner but he's 85 and doesn't want to be known or bothered about the cars.
He was kind enough to sell me the 67 and let me film.
It's my hope to keep track of them. He also wants me to stay in touch and stop by from time to time so I'll be updating on these cars in the future I'm sure.
Great having you here and be sure to subscribe to keep up with all the fun!
He has a Suzuki Samurai behind the Mustang. I want that!
I do as well. Those little things are really fun back in the woods!
Watch putting those parts on the hood you may scratch the paint...😅😅😅
I'll be more careful next time 🤣
"There are snakes around here" as I dig inside a Mustang open to the weather, bare handed, possibly filled with snakes and venomous spiders 😂
His land must have been the place for dead and dying Mustangs.
Given the time, you could probably restore a whole Mustang with all of those parts.
Fun video!
Thank you! and thanks for watching. Gotta watch out for those snakes.
Enjoyed your video, looking forward to more!
Thanks Fred!
I like the wj jeep sitting out there even though it's not viewed as a classic car it is a damn good vehicle
They are extremely fun as well!
Super cool. All those mustangs in one place
I agree, it was amazing and super fun to see them all in person. Thanks for joining me on the adventure.

A true $150,000 restoration
I'm a certified PPG painter, welder, fabricator, and restoration expert. So fortunately, I don't have to pay a shop to have it done. It won't cost anywhere near that to restore.
@@LostandFoundClassicsso, 100,000 dollars?
@@cleroyster2610 More like $20,000 with materials and parts.
@@LostandFoundClassics wow, you are truly a magician.
Although this car my look rough, after getting it home, I found the inner and outer rockers, doors, quarter panels, inner and outer rear wheel wells, rear frame rails, truck drop off pans, torque boxes, and window channels are all rust free.
The overall body is extremely solid minus the front floor pans and the repairs needed to the front frame rails.
Additionally, these cars are a specialty of mine. I've had over 50 plus mustangs over the last 28 years.
They only get expensive when you buy junk to start with or if you buy parts from the high end dealers rather than knowing how to hunt them down yourself.
Hope you are successful in your restoration journey.
Plus the owner shouldnt have neglected a car like this
Thank you and thanks for watching!
67 Fast back WITH AC, well done, and appears to be all there, look forward to seeing this torn apart and re-done. Sentimental is all nice and fine, just hate to see them all just sitting there rotting into the ground, how much you want to bet the "rest" sit there forever, sad.
Thank You! And be sure to subscribe for more fun finds! I've got more videos coming in the future.
"I'll restore it some day" Rots to the ground. "It sentimental" Rots to the ground. Such BS.

It’s really sad that he’s holding on to these instead of allowing you or other people to buy them If I’m holding on to a memory I’d much rather have it restored to its former glory then letting them rot in a field that doesn’t in my opinion help you honor that person in a way that you actually hold on to their memory why not allow their memory to live on with a new life
It's my hope to help him organize them and get them into the garage he has on the property. Unfortunately its currently filled with Wood Working items.
He's not using the wood working stuff anymore so I'm gonna try and get them inside if I can.
I'll be keeping up with him and the cars as time goes on so they don't end up in the scrap yard.
Cool video. I always thought that all GT classic Mustangs came with Front Disk brakes, at least my 1966 A Code Mustang Fastback did.
Hi there, You are correct, all GT optioned cars came with disc brakes. This 67 is not a GT.
Bring the blue back. Saw the color under the trunk briefly and it’s a really good looking color
I agree, the acapulco blue is a beautiful color. But, they bring more money in BULLIT Green or as an Elaenor Clone.
But those colors wouldn't be original to that car .
@@waltera.2255 The S code VIN is the most important aspect of the Value.
Color sets the tone for the auctions :)
When I was in high school I had a 67 coupe Deluxe interior. It was also in factory four speed with a 308 differential. The car was some type of anniversary model because it was painted anniversary gold. In fact, the paint code said special. We found the car in a salvage yard in Bray Oklahoma.
He paid $150 for the car in 1979.
Man, a special edition gold car!!! Was it a 302 J code car as well?
@@LostandFoundClassics No, it was a 67. It was a C code.
@@johnroof2663 Gotcha, I read 68 for some reason.
What a find! Sad to let all those Mustangs sit and rot! Had a '66 and '67 hardtop back in the '70s and '80s.
I agree!
I really enjoy your passion

I hope these cars will be saved and restored if possible! Very ,very sad.
One at a time I hope I can rescue most of them. It'll be a slow process. He knows what he has and I had to pay big for the 67 Fastback.
Came here after supercar blonde blog
Wow, I didn't know I made it on the blog. I just found it on their website. Thanks for sharing that with me!
Happy for you man. Bring it back and enjoy it.
Thank you!
Can this mustang be restored, if so will you make a video of it being restored.
The channel is currently more dedicated to finding and rescuing classic cars rather than documenting the restoration process.

Thanks for watching!
It is a crime to let these machines rot. I am far from perfect and have many half done projects, but these need to be passed on to someone who has time and resources to save. As one other poster said, if they are sentimental, they should be TREASURES!!!
I agree!
Back then, they were just cars.
Exactly!
I sold my 68 Mustang Fastback with 289 in '82. I just recently went to a car show and saw my mustang after 42 years. It still had the same license plates. In 82 I bought a new Capri RS 5.0 out of the Mercury showroom and it's my daily driver for 42 years. I wasn't going to make that mistake again. Early this year I was offered $8k and just a few weeks ago I was offered $15k. I guess these Foxbody cars are very sought after cars.
Thank you for sharing that! Yes, the Fox Bodies are now starting to become collectors as well.
If you jump over to the Summit Racing Equipment youtube channel and type in 1993 Cobra you'll see a video of the 1993 Fox Body Cobra I helped restore in my 20s. There's even a picture of me in the video doing the body work.
@@LostandFoundClassics Late Model Restoration (LMR) youtube channel did a beautiful restoration of a ASC McLaren Capri with Coyote swap! Fortunate Foxbody cars have repo parts to keep them going just like the classic Mustangs.
@@Twolife Those McLarens and Early Saleens are sweeet!!!!

I think I've lived mustangs every since I first saw one it's more than being a fan the classic mustangs and all the others are just goosebump smiles and happiness for me. Classic American muscle is a breed of car and fan 💪👏👍
Same here!
If you can break the drum loose you don't have to take anything out, just put a tire on and it will roll now that it's unfrozen.
I tried that first, the drums were locked tight. The internals needed to come out.
Field of dreams 😍😍
Exactly!
That thing is toast
Not at all.
Wow can't wait for the videos of the restoration. Awesome find. I love Classic Cars.
@@JohnnyRumback thank you and thanks for watching!
Sweet
Indeed!
Just curious, is your new S code also a GT? I saw the deluxe wheel arch trim, the GT gas cap and the attachment points for the rear deck lid trim. Great find! As a new subscriber, I hope to see what happens with this special car!
Sadly, it's not a GT optioned car. It's basically a Standard interior Fastback ordered with an S code 390, Auto, and Wood steering wheel.
SEF , save every fastback !
I couldn't agree more!
All these mustangs out there grazing in the field
LOL
Someone needs to feed these ponies some fuel and put them back to work.
And you beat Dennis Collins to it. Good find!!
It was a sweet find for sure!
Dennis can't find them all!😊

Almost 40 years ago, a guy on my paper route was selling a 69 fastback for 4k, was in mint condition 😮😢
Yeah, unfortunately if we all knew then what we know now we would have invested in these things by the dozen!
It’s so exciting to see your passion for mustangs
Thank you!
My mother's dream car is the mach 1 mustang

I hope you can make a deal with him where you can help him get one of those on the road that is really sentimental for him and he can give you one of the others that you really want to restore. I know he has sentiment attachment but it hurts to see all these beautiful potential restorations going to total waste. Couple of good sales and he could have a nice steel builfing garage or pile barn to put them in.
I'm glad you were able to save one and I'm glad you have a good new friend. Hopefully you can help each other make some dreams come true for one another.
It is my hope to help him out as much as I can. But he also lives very far from me.
That is both awesome and gracious of you as well not to mention the honorable thing to do. My favorite part about my car hobby is all the wonderful facts that I meet and that it gives me the ability to keep pushing myself because of my passion. Health is tough for me personally but this is my activity of choice and I'm so thankful for it everyday. Blessings
on your endeavors and looking forward to seeing a wonderful transformation of the Mustang
@@rokkinroll Thank you
Very coo car. You really know your Mustangs. I need to learn more about my 68 1/2 coupe. It has a 302 4B but just don't know much more about it. I have had it for 45 years now, it was my high school car. I really would like to learn more about the different codes. Thanks so much for the video, keep up the great work. Bring it back to life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hey there,
The 5th digit of your VIN should be a “J” for a 302 car. Those are fun cars!
Enjoy it
@@LostandFoundClassics Thanks. I will check it out. I'm sure it will be a J, it's the original engine.
@@hovlandbound Awesome!
The owner of these cars might be a nice guy but letting such iconic cars ruin like he has done is a sickness IMHO. Sell them to people who will restore and cherish them. I doubt his deceased girlfriend and brother would mind.
It's difficult to understand the emotion and mental connections. Seeing cars related to family members brings back memories.
Sadly, he can't afford to restore them all.
If you restored this 67 mustang properly You'd have $100k in a $45K car. That's just the nature of the beast. Being personally involved in the
restoration is the fun part for mustang lovers.
@@robertbritton9674 The car is currently worth $25,000 as it sits.

I won't have anywhere near $100,000 in restoration expenses.
There's plenty of profit left in the car if that was why i bought it.
Yeah they are dead it dont matter what they think anymore when they were alive they didnt even garage these cars they really didnt care about them.
Well he sold it
Hope you’re young enough to finish it. 😮
I've got the tools, the skills, and the certifications.
I had a 1969 mustang grande. straight 6. My first car. my dad and i restored it. and then years later, my ex-hisband drove it into the ground. Damn. I miss that car.

What happens next is wild!
I'm still waiting for what happens next. You didn't have to use clickbait in the title 😂
In all honesty, finding the 428 Cobra Jet was wild to me. It wasn't click bait, it was sincere.
@LostandFoundClassics Oh yeah, finding it was wild, and I watched the whole video. It was a great video and great find, but you set an expectation when you put, "What happens next is wild," the expectation being that you restored the car. Now, in the next video, when you do restore the car, it would be great to put "What happens next is wild" because that's the expectation. I'm not dissing the video, just the title 😂
@@HFH-Official Completely understandable. :) 🤣
Yeah it's a big block.
It's a BIG BLOCK OF RUST
Yup, and worth $25,000 as it sits.
You need to call Dennis Collins . He lives in Wylie, Texas. He will give you top dollar for the cars
No thanks
This Ford Mustang is my dream
They are amazing Cars!
What is the attraction of Hoarding these cars and then watching them rot into the ground??? I don't get it ???
Well, as the story goes, he actually drove several of them until they quit and then he parked them. Additionally, some of them belonged to previous family members who have passed so there is a sentimental attachment also.
It's hard to understand sometimes but the gentleman is 85 years old, extremely nice, and as he said "I enjoy looking at them".
Thanks , fair enough , l think??
@@GeoffBrown-rg7yq I try and think of it this way.
It's America and we are blessed to do what we want with our own property. For the better or the worse.
I'll respect his freedom to do what he has with the car. But I'll also stay close enough to make sure they don't get crushed when the passes.
Shit all I wanted to do is CRY seeing the neglect !
I totally understand the feeling.
A PERSON WHO HAS SENTINEL TO THOSE 🚗 CARS DOESN'T LET THEM ROT
They do if they don't have the money to fixt them. Unfortunately.
Who ever owns these cars, destroyed the cars instead of doing something good with them... Sad when you see cars treated this way...
I hope to help him organize them and get them in better shape.
Love it, You are looking at cars the way I did back in the 60's Does it have a 4 speed , Does it have a tact , and what engine is in it. I notice in my days that it was a great find to find a tact in a ford, Alot Camaro SS didn't have a tact either. That is why hated it when these so call car builder would remove all the instrument cluster and put in something that look like you got it from jc whitney catalog.
Inside the car is where all the memorys are and you should want to keep it that way.
Thank you keep it up you make us older guys very happy....

Im happy 4U man good luck with it i think it might be a ford truck engine could be either the 351M or 400.
Thank you, It's definitely a 360 or 390 FE engine but it has a truck intake on it. The 351M and 400 are completely different animals.
My high school buddy had a legitimate 1966 GT350H, that had the origional K-code 289 4 spd! Even had the fiberglass IMSA/CAN AM front gravel pan! (I forget what it was actually called, so apologies in advance). It was even still its origional color of Blue white exterior, and white parchment interior!
Those are great cars. My father's friend had one when I was a kid.
They look about seasoned & ready for the shredder. Few more years & just haul em off.
Not really, the cars are actually extremely solid and filled with rare and valuable parts.
That's a cool car glad you got it I can't believe that someone took engine out of a car that where was only 9 built shame all those great cars had to sit out in the weather
I agree. and thank you!
Too far gone. Take the 100k and find one complete
Actually, I'm a certified PPG painter, Welder, Fabricator, and restoration expert with my own shop. So this won't take near as much because I'll be doing the work myself.
@@LostandFoundClassics
I would be interesting to see it all, keep us posted, please!!
Nice AND a 390 ?!?
👍🏁
Yeah!
At 85, let someone else bring life to those vehicles to allow a part of you to live on.
Fortunately, that's what he said about the one I purchased.
Hope you know what your getting into, you'd need literally everything
I'm a certified PPG painter, welder, fabricator, and restoration expert. I also worked for Summit Racing Equipment for 10 years. It's going to be a big project, but I can do it all myself and have a shop at home. If this had to go to a shop and pay an hourly rate, it would be a massive undertaking financially.
@@LostandFoundClassics thank God it's in the hands of someone capable, should do a build video series, I'd watch TF out of that
@@EdwardJoy I've had a few people request a restoration series.
I may do that in the future some time.
The hardest part is, I don't have a videographer. Someone who can film while I'm working.
It literally takes twice as long to get something done when you film it at the same time by yourself.
Working a full time job and doing videos is a lot to take on.
But I may do something in the future.
It's sad that all the previous owners of all these cars didn't care about any of them at all. To leave them outdoors in the elements to rot . I don't understand why they would do that makes no sence
I agree!
Parabéns!
Também me senti assim, aqui no Brasil, quando comprei meu primeiro Ford Maverick GT , motor V8 302. Era um carro para restaurar também, exceto o interior, o carro estava completo, alinhado e sem batida.
Awesome, thank you for sharing that! And thanks for watching from Bazil!
I'm so excited for you have fun building the car making it your dream car . There's a ton of parts available for this car . There's also another CZcamsr who builds there car he can help you should you need help or advice
Thank you for the encouraging comment!
I've had about 40 plus 60s Mustangs over the last 25 years and they are a joy.
I'm actually a certified PPG painter, welder, fabricator, and restoration expert. The restoration process on this one wont be very difficult.
The underside of the car is very rust free compared to other cars I've owned and the rear frame rails are like new.
Once the front frame rails are repaired it won't take much to make it a driver again.

You said you were a certified PPG painter I have a 96 Ford Probe SE Hatchback a few years ago I paid a guy 10K to . Do a one of house of Kolors camelion Green, Purple and Blue paint job with heavy metal flake by Lil Daddy Roth on it . Unfortunately instead of giving me a 10K paint job it looks more like a $500 paint job. Sometime down the road I'd love to have it repainted
@@psementalist That's unfortunate to hear about the outcome of your paint job. The House of Kolor and Flake isn't cheap.
They also require specific skills to apply and not every painter has those skills.
I've not only sprayed house of Kolor but also sold it for a while. It's great stuff when used properly from start to finish and applied with correct PSI and pattern.
Sell it to Dennis Collins. He give you good money. He got the correct engines to put in them.
Maybe

@@jerryjacob4737 Out of respect for the owner, the location will not be shared publicly. He is 85 and honestly doesn't want to be bothered.
Its a hard NO on selling the rest of the cars.
Dennis Collins, coming with the cash to save them all ....Help Dennis !
Dennis couldn't get them even if he wanted too. The guy wont sell. Believe me, I tried. With a stack of cash in hand.
He says they are going to his kids, you wonder do they want them? Hopefully it's not late by that time.
@@regalgn1 It won't be, I'm keeping myself close.
The treasure hunt is half the fun of collecting cars.
I totally agree! It's the thrill of the case for me.
I Actually Have A 1969 Mach I " S " Code .... It Has A Built 428FE Police Interceptor, With Edelbrock Cobra Jet Heads, Bored .030 Over, With Mahle Pistons, Comp " Magnum " Camshaft, Polished Nodular Crank, Milodon Gear Drive, Vintage 1969 Hooker ♥️ Cobra Jet Headers, Etc. ..... I Understand That He Won't Sell It, But There's NO WAY That I Would Just Let It Sit Out In A Field, And I Don't. Mine Is In Storage For Now.
The S code Mustang?
Like the one Dennis Collins dug out just recently?
I've not seen his video so I'm not sure.
In Canada s code 390 came with disc brake mandatory
In the US, Disc brakes only came on the GT models unless you ordered it.
It is sad to see all of them going back to the land . Glad you rescued one ❤
