1968 Mustang GT Cobra Jet Convertible

Starting at

$330,500 USD

Midway through the 1968 model year, Ford introduced the 428 Cobra Jet as a 1968.5 model. The 428 Cobra Jet was at the time the most powerful engine ever produced by Ford. Likewise, Revology’s Cobra Jet is the most powerful engine ever offered in a Revology Mustang. Identical to the 710hp supercharged 5.0L Ti-VCT 'Coyote' V8 featured in the Revology Shelby GT500, the Cobra Jet features the same aluminum front subframe, cooling system, external oil cooler, exhaust, and heavy-duty driveline as the GT500, along with a unique domed hood for clearance (hood-mounted turn signal indicators are deleted). Available with manual or automatic transmission. The Revology Mustang GT Cobra Jet captures the style and character of the original with improved performance, drivability, reliability, comfort, and safety.

Engine

The standard engine in the Revology Mustang Cobra Jet is the Ford/Whipple supercharged 5.0L Ti-VCT V8, producing 710 horsepower. The engine delivers effortless performance when called upon, yet remains smooth, refined, and easy to drive in everyday traffic.

Transmission

Choose between a six-speed manual and an electronically controlled ten-speed automatic transmission, both with overdrive for effortless highway cruising and excellent fuel mileage.

Performance Brake Package

The Mustang GT is equipped with high performance power brakes featuring 12.88” slotted and ventilated rotors w/ 6 piston front and 4 piston rear calipers.

Carbon Fiber Driveshaft

Carbon fiber is the choice for high performance driveline applications due to its high strength and light weight, but it is also more forgiving than steel or aluminum, which serves to reduce driveline harshness, improving the overall level of refinement of the vehicle and making it more enjoyable to drive.

Exhaust System

The stainless steel dual exhaust system is built by Borla to our specification. Tuned specifically for the Ford Coyote engine, it delivers a soft burble at idle and is quiet with no drone at cruise speed. The optional Performance Exhaust system features lower restriction mufflers to provide more power and a more aggressive tone.

Rear Axle Assembly

All Revology Mustangs and Shelby GTs are equipped with a Ford 8.8″ rear end and Traction-Lok limited slip differential for quiet operation with superior durability. Unlike aftermarket gear sets, the 3.31 (A/T) and 3.73 (M/T) gear sets are Ford engineered and built at Ford’s Sterling Axle plant. Heavy duty 31-spline axles reliably transfer the car’s prodigious power to the pavement.

Functional

A precisely tuned double wishbone suspension and power rack and pinion steering deliver modern handling.

Interior

The Revology Shelby/Mustang front seats provide improved comfort and lateral support over the original seats, while maintaining an authentic appearance. Based on a current OEM seat, the front seats feature unique Revology-designed foam and upholstery combined with a robust and lightweight frame and mechanicals for the ultimate in comfort, functionality, and authenticity. Front seats are equipped with manual fore/aft and recline. Seats and interior trim panels are covered in premium OEM automotive grade vinyl or OEM automotive leather which offers superior abrasion resistance and protection from sun loading than aftermarket materials.

Exterior

LED reverse and parking lamps, tail lamps w/sequential turn signals, exterior door handle courtesy lamps, and optional LED headlamps provide improved visibility at night as well as a distinctive appearance, day or night. The Revology paint process consists of an epoxy primer, urethane primer, basecoat, and clearcoat. We use exclusively Glasurit automotive paint finishes for the ultimate in appearance and durability. Contemporary OEM colors from Ferrari, Porsche, Lexus, and others also available.

Structural Adhesive

Revology Cars assembles its Mustang body structures with new parts, using production fixtures designed in CAD for superior dimensional control and modern automated welding equipment for consistent weld integrity. In addition, we apply modern structural adhesives to all structural weld flanges during assembly then bake the body at 350°F to cure the adhesives, stiffening the body from 40-60%. Structural adhesives not only increase stiffness, which eliminates the squeaks and rattles common in a 60-year old automobile body, they also improve corrosion resistance, long-term durability, and contribute to improved crash performance. Until now, this technology was only available on new vehicles from major OEMs, such as BMW, Ford, and Honda. Revology is the first and presently the only company in this segment to adopt this advanced technology.

Modern Power Windows

The original Mustang was only available with roll-up windows. Aftermarket attempts to convert the original design to power fell short in performance and reliability. To address this, we developed a modern OEM cable-type window regulator system for Revology Mustangs. Designed in Catia V5 by our engineering team, the modern system bolts up to a new door inner panel. The new window regulator is more reliable, weighs less, doesn’t rattle, and provides consistently smooth and quiet operation.

Hood Hinges

All Revology Mustangs and Shelby GTs feature aluminum hood hinges with nitrogen filled struts for stable, quiet, and reliable operation—a notable improvement over the wobbly, squeaky 1960s hinges.

Doors

Revology 1967 and 1968 Mustangs and Shelby GTs feature modern door hinges and door latch mechanisms. While it doesn’t sound very sexy, these modern components make the car much more enjoyable to use. No more squeaks and creaks as you open the doors—they open smoothly and quietly, and close with a solid “thunk”. When closed, the precisely latched doors contribute to the overall rigidity of the body.

Decklid Latch

If you’ve ever owned a 1960s automobile, you are familiar with having to slam the decklid multiple times to get it to stay shut. To address this problem, we’ve equipped all Revology Mustangs and Shelby GTs with a modern decklid latch and striker mechanism. The decklid can be opened using the key fob remote, via a release button located on the driver’s side kick panel, or via an emergency release.

Polyurethane Bonded Windshield and Backlite Glass

All Revology Mustangs and Shelby GTs come standard with polyurethane bonded windshield and backlite (fastback models) glass. Polyurethane bonding is the way all modern automotive glass is secured not only because it seals better than rubber but also because it makes the glass part of the body structure, increasing body rigidity. Increased rigidity reduces noise, vibration, and harshness, but most importantly improves safety, as the stiffer roof is less likely to crush in a roll over and the glass won’t pop out and allow passengers to be ejected in a collision.

100% Steel Unibody

Modern cars all feature unibody, or monocoque, construction because it is stiffer and lighter than body on frame. For a unibody vehicle, the body provides the structure for the powertrain and chassis, which makes it much more important that it is designed and built properly. To ensure the structural rigidity and tight tolerances that allow the packaging of powerful new engines, we reengineered the Mustang unibody with added structural components and additional welds for increased strength. We build all Revology unibodies in-house, using locating fixtures, jigs, and templates to ensure proper dimensional control and sophisticated automated spot-welding equipment that senses the thickness and composition of metal that is being welded and applies the proper amount of current to ensure good quality welds.

Charging System

A convenient 4.3A on board trickle charger connects via a magnetic contact under the rear bumper to keep your battery charged even while the car is not driven for long periods.

Safety

Three point front seat belts, a dual circuit braking system, fuel shutoff inertia switch, collapsible steering shaft, and optional front seat head restraints help protect occupants in the event of a collision.

Entertainment Systems

The standard audio system looks like the original AM radio but features AM/FM, Bluetooth, and an AUX input. The optional Pioneer 7″touch screen head units feature Bluetooth, reverse camera, voice recognition, Apple Car Play, and Android Auto and can be ordered with or without navigation and SiriusXM. The optional FOCAL Audio package features component speakers, an 720w 8 channel class AB amplifier, and a 10” enclosed subwoofer.

Leather and Alcantara™ Trim Packages

Every Revology interior is meticulously cut, sewn, and hand-fitted by skilled craftsmen. From the seats and floor mats to the dashboard, door panels, quarter trim panels, and sun visors, each component is individually crafted to deliver exceptional fit, finish, and long-term durability. This traditional, handcrafted approach also provides the flexibility to personalize materials and colors to each owner's preferences. The interior is trimmed in premium OEM-grade enhanced-grain Nappa leather throughout the front and rear seats, door panels, instrument panel, center console, quarter trim panels, headliner, and kick panels, creating a refined cabin with the look, feel, and durability expected of a modern luxury automobile. Available interior enhancements include contrast stitching, featuring double topstitch seams in your choice of thread color on select interior surfaces, genuine Alcantara® seat and door panel inserts, and an Alcantara® headliner and sun visors for an even more distinctive and luxurious cabin.
