1965 Ford Mustang

Detailed to look concourse! ''A'' code performance 289 plus a 4 speed manual with the GT package makes this a highly desirable car. #'s match motor, trans, carb, paint, and interior. What you see here is virtually the way it rolled off the showroom floor! This thoroughbred is ready to run! EXTERIOR: Factory colors! The J code Rangoon Red paint was applied with tremendous detail then polished to a smooth and glossy finish. You could read our sales contract in the reflection. Looking down the side of the body it is remarkably straight. All the panels have been nicely aligned and the doors close easily with minimal effort. The front grille with GT fog lamps looks like new. The chrome bumpers and polished trim pieces all have a lustrous shine. The GT exhaust tips exiting through the rear valance are just too cool. The black power top is in fantastic condition. It has dual side view mirrors as well. ''GT'' and ''289'' badges embellish the fenders. It's sitting on the correct 14'' GT wheels wrapped in reproduction dual red line tires. INTERIOR: Factory code 66 Deluxe ''pony'' interior. This includes the molded door panels with ''knife'' handles and of course deluxe upholstery with the running ponies on them. Rally Pac gauges with Tach, and clock. Nice center console with correct style 4 speed manual shifter. A retro stereo fits in the factory hole. The dash area is in excellent condition. The carpet was replaced and has reproduction floor mats. What a beautifully refurbished interior! ENGINE COMPARTMENT: #'s matching! Completely rebuilt at time of restoration. ''A'' code in the VIN designates the high performance 289 V-8. It makes 225 hp and comes with a 4 barrel carb. This one is correct with codes C5AE-6015 and date 5C9Z. Highly detailed engine compartment to concours standards. Date coded plug wires, reproduction hoses and clamps, Motorcraft battery topper, Autolite alternator and even a reproduction Motorcraft oil filter. The horns and squirters are hooked up plus the latch assembly is brand new. TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The underside of the trunk lid and jamb are painted slick just like the body. The weatherstrip and latch mechanism were both replaced. Inside is all clean and solid metal painted Rangoon Red. It comes with a full size spare and a trunk mat. UNDERSIDE: The steering components look great and work well. Front suspension is super nice with a big fat sway bar and fresh bushings. The rear suspension has been refurbished and has leaf springs with newer shocks. It's equipped with front disc and rear drum brakes. Nice full dual exhaust system with a crossover pipe, mufflers, resonators, and GT trumpet style tips exiting through the rear valance. The gas tank and fuel pump were both replaced. Looking up at the #'s matching 289 engine it has nice black paint and a reproduction oil filter. The close ratio 4 speed manual transmission also looks nice and clean. That transfers power to the 9'' rear end with 3.00 gearing. The floors are rust free with a coating of satin black paint. SERVICE: We inspected the car and adjusted the timing, fixed a vacuum leak, replaced carb (original stays with car), replaced reverse light bulbs, replaced shifter bushings, replaced brake pedal pad, replaced a headlamp, reattached the door panel, oiled the blower, replaced power top cylinders, fixed brake lights, aligned the windows and lubed the driver's window. This is a very sought after car that won't drain the 401k! The #'s matching drivetrain and detailed concourse restoration elevate it to investment grade status. The decision is simple.
