Re: hubert platt 68 ford mustang 428 scj in barn
If it really is Platt's car, it would undoubtedly be from one of the first 50 428CJ fastbacks, which were "lightweights" of sorts, and were all white. Here's a FAQ reply from Scott Hollenbeck's 428CJ website:
"? Factory 1968 428 Cobra Jet Mustang drag racing vehicles can be identified by their VIN.
True! In late December 1967 (date code 30M), Ford produced 50 Wimbledon White sportsroof Mustangs with black vinyl interiors for drag racing duty. The vehicles were numbered sequentially, starting with VIN 8F02R135007 and ending with VIN 8F02R135056."
A check of the Mustang's VIN should tell the tale. E-mail me with any other questions you might have. Thanks for sharing your finds and good luck with your potential purchase.
