Vehicle Description
There's something to be said for owning a classic car that you can
enjoy daily if you so choose. And as we see a younger generation
start to show interest in the muscle and pony cars of old, here at
DC Classic Cars East we have started to notice a trend from buyers
of both young and old. Lately, an increasing number of buyers are
specifically hunting a great looking car that is a blast to drive,
has plenty of power on tap, and has a timeless look. They don't
want a trailer queen, they aren't concerned with numbers matching,
and more often than not, the importance isn't necessarily present
or future collectability, but instead only one thing matters... How
does it drive?! Which brings us to this absolutely gorgeous '66
Mustang convertible.
This Mustang is a fully-sorted weekend cruiser that is perfect to
show off at the local cruise in or car show, but trust us you wont
want to leave it parked there for long. 5-minutes behind the wheel,
and you'll appreciate this car on a whole new level. The recipient
of a nearly $50,000 restoration that was finished in 2016, today
this convertible sits in one of the best Mustang colors of all time
- Emberglo Metallic. Inside you'll find the rare split front bench
seat equipped with the pony inserts and a brand new convertible
top, that believe it or not, comes with a 3-year warranty!
Pop open the hood and you'll find a fully detailed engine bay that
houses a fresh 302 that has been outfitted with a 4-bbl carburetor,
Edelbrock performer intake and Mustang valve covers. The engine
also has more tasteful upgrades like, HEI Hertz distributor, power
steering and front disc brakes that help ensure its ready for a
simple 10-minute drive up the block or a 250 mile drive to a
show.
Inside you'll find a very clean and brand new white interior that
looks like no one has ever sat in the car. We're not kidding, the
interior looks as if no one has put any miles on it. The floor
shifter looks brand new, all the gauges work as they should, and
everywhere you look its evident that someone took their time making
this interior and it shows!
Underneath shows extremely well, there's no ugly patches under
here. Clean and not hiding anything, you'll also see the Ford 8.8"
Rear End with a highway friendly rear gear stuffed in it, dual
exhausts outfitted with Flowmaster Mufflers and new shocks at all
four corners. Power is put to the pavement thanks to 15" rims that
have been wrapped with BF Goodrich Radials.
If you are in the market for an incredible pony car that is certain
to become the envy of everyone you know, then this is it! We've
seen a lot of mustangs come through here in various stages of
condition, but if you are hunting a toy you can enjoy and actually
put on the street, but don't want to shell out $50k for a trailer
queen, then you would be hardpressed to find a nicer Mustang than
this!
Sale includes a complete build book with a ton of receipts
showcasing the nearly $50,000 that was spent on the
restoration.
