1968 CJ California Special - Rare Finds

When John Johnson saw his CJ California Special, he knew he had something great on his hands. When we got wind of it, we knew that it had to be a rare find. (http://www.mustangmonthly.com/featuredvehicles/mump_1108_1968_cj_california_special_mustang_coupe _rare_finds/index.html)Some rare finds are really rare and this '68 California Special certainly qualifies. Of the 3,867 California Special Mustang coupes built for '68, only three came with the 428 Cobra Jet engine. John Johnson was the lucky soul to discover this Brittany Blue GT/CS only one mile from his home in Alpine, Utah. He was more than lucky because the car is complete and a one-owner. The odometer reads 26,000, which really means 126,000 miles. Ford also assembled a Candyapple Red '68 GT/CS with the 428 CJ, a car that Johnson says is located in Seattle. For dreamers and wishers, the third car, originally Wimbledon White, is "missing." (If anyone knows the whereabouts of this car, send me an email at jerry@jerryheasley.com). All '68 Mustang 428 CJ coupe owners should double-check their car's history.
