Vehicle Description
There aren't too many cars that have the legendary,
all-encompassing appeal that the Ford Mustang does. When it comes
to this 1965 Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback, it's easy to see why.
Mixing timeless looks with serious performance chops straight from
the factory, this '65 Fastback has it all. Wrapping iconic Ford V8
power under the hood and pairing it to a stunningly correct
"Wimbledon White" paintjob, this '65 Mustang leaves you without a
doubt in mind as to why it's an absolute showstopper. And, with
only 86,946 believed-to-be original miles on the odometer, this '65
Mustang has plenty of life left in it. Originally powered by a
"C-Code" 289 C.I. V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor, this Mustang has
had that 2-barrel swapped out for a heavy-breathing Edelbrock
4-barrel carburetor and intake to make even more power. Torque from
that 289 gets to the pavement through a smooth-shifting 3-speed
automatic transmission, ensuring that this fast Ford isn't just
capable of asphalt-scorching acceleration but also for comfortable
cruising. Featuring long, flowing bodylines that extend all the way
from the tip of the hood all the way to the trunk lid in one even
swoop, this '65 Fastback is gorgeous in every way, shape, and form.
In addition to those laser-straight bodylines, the Mustang in
question sports unbelievably-attractive "Wimbledon White" paint
that's complimented by red "C-Stripes" that really make this
Mustang stand out. The floors, frame, trunk and jambs are all also
rock-solid and in great shape! Opening the twin doors and stepping
inside reveals a gorgeous 79-code "Palomino" vinyl interior, a rare
combination with the white paint that adorns the car's comfy bucket
seats nicely. The interior of this car also features a fold-down
rear seat, factory A/C (missing compressor), and aftermarket aux.
gauges. Other options on this '65 Fastback include power steering,
a jack & spare tire, the original 2-barrel carburetor, intake and
air cleaner, vent windows, factory gauges, an original AM
pushbutton radio, and a good-sounding dual exhaust system. The car
rides on a factory set of 14" Mustang wheels wrapped with B.F.
Goodrich RWL tires for a factory-fresh, aggressive look. Turn the
key and that 289 starts right up, showing that this '65 Mustang
runs and drives down the road like a dream. This sleek Ford
fastback is an correct and accurate representation of a formula
that, 57 years later, rightfully stays true to the title of the
world's best-selling sports car. If you're looking for a car that's
every bit as impressive as it is unique, then this incredible '65
Ford is just what you're looking for!
