The 67 Roadster was not an expensive car, about $7,900, in relation to its performance, but it had extraordinarily high power - to - weight ratio and its nimble circuit handling could blow far more exotic and expensive cars into the weeds. There were 260 67 Roadster coil-spring street cars built and 348 total. The 67 Roadster was last advertised for sale in the USA in August of 1968. Growing environmental protection and safety legislation would have changed the 67 Roadster beyond recognition, so it was decided to stop production. We at Antique & Collectable Autos have tried to reproduce the features of the original 67 Roadster in our modern version of this great classic. Our attention to detail and coil-over suspension make this affordable reproduction a great driving and building experience. |

67 ROADSTER REPRODUCTION PACKAGE INCLUDES
Body
Hand-crafted fiberglass laminate; featuring hand laid layers of fiberglass on a gelcoated surface and an inner core, providing high strength and superior surface quality. All high stress areas are reinforced with heavy woven roving, providing the strongest most durable and stable body in the industry.
There is no fiberglassing required, all inner liners and components, floor, fire wall, rear bulkhead, front wheel wells, doors hood and trunk liners are fiberglassed in the molds with custom fixtures for precise and accurate placement. Our doors, hood, and trunk utilize a full inner system for strength and rigidity with a smooth finished look.
Hood and trunk come installed on the body using tapped sandwich plates behind their inner liners for strength and adjustability and steel reinforced pivots precisely located and fiberglassed in place.
Doors have steel inner structures for personal protection. Also placed in the body is our steel cowl hoop with floor to frame mounting plates and welded on brackets for the windshield, door hinges, fire wall and steering column.
Holes are pre-cut in the body for doors, headlights, front and rear directionals, gas cap, radiator, oil cooler, front brake air intake, side louvers, hood scoop and overrider frame bracket on trunk floor.
We mold our own bodies to exact outer dimensions (no stretched wheelbase) using original specifications, utilizing our 30 years experience in the fiberglass industry. Our vast experience allows us to offer bodies in Kevlar and Kevlar Carbon Fiber. All painter bodies are molded and aligned so well that we remove all flash lines (lines formed from seams in molds) from the gelcoat surface. All fiberglass components go through our 12 step total cure process. Every component is hand-buffed to insure that the surface is even, flat and shiny.
Our optional high luster gelcoat finish (no painting) has a durable, smooth, deep-molded finish in each part. The finish will retain its vibrant color and beauty for many years.
These features provide our customers with the highest quality and the shortest assembly time.

All standard assembly holes are precision located and pre-drilled to the correct size, saving you time, and the difficulty of drilling structural steel as well as insuring the correct location of each assembly hole. Deburring after manufacture of the frame removes the sharp areas from the welded surfaces and rust-preventive coating protects the entire frame assembly.
- Frame is manufactured from A-500 B 2" X 5" structural steel tube main rails with 58,000 PSI tensile and incorporating 6 full lateral cross members. 2 X 2 outrigger rails provide excellent personal protection and a strong base for the floor and seats.

9" Ford housing with axles: our rear housings come narrowed and the axles are shortened and resplined with all four link & coil over shock brackets welded in place. This eliminates the need for costly and precision modification to a standard rear housing. All you need to do is add your center section and brake parts.
Triangulated 4 link rear: assures you precise alignment of rear housing while allowing transfer of horse power and torque to rear wheels and adding cornering stability.
Tubular control arms: provide state of the art front suspension which is far superior to standard traditional Mustang stamped control arm, in conjunction with our coil over front shocks; this provides you with high-tech steering and suspension components with a truly high-performance look. Upper control arms are adjusted with shims eliminating worry about slots opening up and slipping under extreme conditions.
