(1 photo of a 1968 Other ) Okay this had nothing to do with Ford Mustangs, but I found it next to the Golden Nugget Special ad from The Daily Chronicle,February 13, 1968, Centralia, Washington. Twilight Zone, I Love Lucy, Dennis the Menace (not the cartoon version), Gilligan's Island... Wow lots of good classic shows!
(3 photos of a 1968 Mountain Green (Emerald Green) Other ) We think this is a Mountain Green (Mustang Emerald Green) 1968 Rocky Mountain Sportsman's Special Bronco. Little is known about this Ford Truck special model except that it was probably only in the Denver area; included the Bronco, F100 and F250; and came in Boulder Bronze (
WT3833), Mountain Green (
WT7819), and Sky Blue (
WT8816). The reason we have a Bronco on a Mustang site is its color. The color is a match for the 1968,
Color of the Month promotion for March commemorating Saint Patrick's Day.
(9 photos of a 1968 Mobil Economy Run Results Advertisement) This is the official results of the 1968 Mobil Economy Run held from April 2nd through April 4th from LA to Indianapolis. The race was to end in New York but was cancelled on April 5th due to civil unrest across the country because of the death of Martin Luther King Jr. on Thursday April 4th. The Mustang came in 5th place in the Class "A" compact six class. This ad was placed in the April 9th edition of the Bakersfield Californian. This race inspired the
1969 Mustang E special edition. In December of 1968, it was announced by Richard F Tucker, vice president of marketing for Mobil in North America, the event will be cancelled in the United States citing "changing advertising patterns and changing emphasis in automotive performance as major factors influencing the decision."
