miscellaneous restoration photos, original owner's manual and
thousands of dollars' worth of invoices and receipts A new Ponycar
has arrived at MotoeXotica Classic Cars and it is gorgeous from the
ground up. Assembled in Ford's Dearborn, Michigan factory on July
19, 1965, this example was delivered to the Memphis, Tennessee
region before moving to California, where it received a ground-up
restoration approximately 1,000 miles ago. The car was later
imported to Canada about three years ago and the previous owner
bought it in 2016. Dressed in desirable Rangoon Red with white
stripes, this car's paint and trim are in overall excellent,
show-winning condition. This pony's windows are clear and
crack-free while the car's lights, including the fog lights, are
intact and haze-free. It rolls on BFGoodrich Radial T/A radials,
P225/60R15 in front and P245/60R15 in rear. Each tire is wrapped
around a five-spoke Torque Thrust wheel with a gray center. The
wheels and tires and are in near-excellent condition. The car's
bodywork is straight and solid, the chrome bumpers were refinished,
look fantastic and fit well to the body. The engine bay is
extremely tidy, the battery appears new and the cargo area is in
excellent order, with an original-style plaid vinyl spare tire
cover, full-size spare tire and floor liner. New floor panels were
installed during the restoration, during which the original Poppy
Red became Rangoon Red. Under the hood is a Ford 302 CID crate V-8
engine. Induction is from a four-barrel Edelbrock carburetor and
aluminum intake and the engine breathes via dual exhausts that exit
through the rear valance panel. Underhood trim and upgrades include
ribbed rocker covers, a chrome Monte Carlo bar and export brace,
silicone hoses, a new wiring harness and period windshield washer
equipment. Backing up the 302 engine is a Tremec TKO five-speed
manual transmission and an eight-inch differential. The crate 302
replaces the original A-code 289 CID V-8 while the Tremec replaces
the factory four-speed manual transmission. Driver convenience
features include front disc brakes, a driver's side remote-operated
side view mirror, a dual-circuit brake master cylinder, rear air
shock absorber and a large front sway bar. Inside, the car's red
and white interior (code F5), is in overall excellent order. The
front buckets and rear fold-down bench seats look fantastic with
their red upholstery with white inserts. The red carpet underfoot
is in similar excellent condition. The matching headliner presents
in excellent condition, too. The Mustang has a fresh, two-tone
"Pony" interior featuring�integrated door panel arm rests and a
woodgrain, three-spoke steering wheel. The instrument panel, with
its full array of gauges, has matching woodgrain trim. This car
came with the Rally-Pac option, a tachometer and a clock attached
to the steering column. There is a full-length center console,
which is home to a Hurst shifter topped by a cueball. Completing
the interior is an AM radio. The standard interior features of the
1965 Mustang included adjustable driver and passenger bucket seats,
an AM radio, and a floor mounted shifter in a variety of color
options. Ford added additional interior options during the 1965
model year. The Interior Decor Group was popularly known as "Pony
Interior" due to the addition of embossed running ponies on the
seat fronts, and also included integral armrests, woodgrain
appliqu� accents and a round gauge cluster that would replace the
standard�Falcon�instrumentation. Also available were sun visors, a
(mechanical) remote-operated mirror, a floor console and a bench
seat. One option designed strictly for fun was the�Rally-Pac.
Introduced in 1963 after Ford's success at that year's�Monte Carlo
Rally�and available on other Ford and Mercury compacts and
intermediates, the Rally-Pac was a combination clock and tachometer
mounted to the steering column. A compass, rear seat belts, A/C and
reverse lights were also optional. Documentation includes
miscellaneous restoration photos, original owner's manual and
thousands of dollars' worth of invoices and receipts documenting
the restoration process. If you're a Ford Fan, a Mustang Collector
