a red-over-red fastback that underwent a cosmetic and mechanical
refresh under previous ownership with an exterior repaint and an
overhaul of it's 289ci V8 engine The 289ci was bored .030? over
with replacement pistons during the rebuild. C4 three-speed
automatic transmission. It is equipped with 14? steel wheels, power
steering, a four-barrel Holley carburetor, an Edelbrock F4B intake
manifold, original AM radio that does not work., a heater, and vent
windows. After an extended period of storage, and subsequent work
involved re-trimming the interior along with replacement of the
head gaskets, freeze plugs, water pump, radiator ( aluminum ), and
ignition components. The car left the factory finished in
Candyapple Red (T), and the man I bought it from states that it was
repainted under previous ownership following repair and replacement
of various body panels. Exterior details include rear sail-panel
louvers, vent windows, polished rocker trim, and Mustang tri-bar
fender badges. A spot of burned-through paint is noted on top of
the driver's door, the bright work has dings and wear, and the
sail-panel louvers are cracked.The 14? steel wheels wear
Mustang-branded hubcaps and are mounted with a mix of 195/75
thin-whitewall tires. The car is equipped with Monroe shocks, while
stopping power is provided by four-wheel drums brakes. Work
performed reportedly included rebuilding the wheel cylinders along
with replacing the power steering pump and the brake shoes, drums,
and lines.The front bucket seats and split rear bench were
reupholstered in red vinyl by the seller and are accompanied by a
color-coordinated dashboard along with a replacement headliner,
door panels, sun visors, and carpets.. The replacement three-spoke
steering wheel fronts a 140-mph speedometer along with
supplementary gauges for fuel level, oil pressure, amperage, and
coolant temperature. The five-digit odometer shows 94k miles. We
are selling it unknown. The underside has been painted.The warranty
number reveals that the car was built at the Metuchen, New Jersey,
assembly plant with a 289ci V8 topped with a two-barrel carburetor.
This is a beautiful Mustang and the paint really looks great. It
runs well. I was not happy with the front end. it is not bad but
it's now being rebuilt. That will make it a really nice car to
drive. We believe that at sometime in it's life, it was damaged in
both the front and rear, and it looks like they did a very good job
of restoring it.
