Vehicle Description
The Ford Mustang was originally named for the fighter plane, the
P-51 Mustang and later the horse Mustang became the emblem. Buyers
loved its low price, long hood, short trunk styling, and its many
options and Ford loved its high volume sales. In mid 1964, Ford
introduced the sporty 2+2 fastback body style to go along with the
hardtop coupe and convertible. Enthusiasts also cheered the new
'K-code' 271bhp 289 cid V8 that finally put some performance to
match the Mustang's good looks. For those that wanted more, the
legendary Carroll Shelby and Ford collaborated to produce the
Shelby GT-350. This was a fastback specially tuned by Shelby. The
289 V8 produced 306bhp in street tune and around 360bhp in special
GT-350R race tune. These Shelby's had no back seat, were only
available in white and were fully race ready. This 1965 Mustang 2+2
Fastback GT350 Clone is presented in Wimbledon White with Black
Crinkle Vinyl interior. It was built in Dearborm,MI on December
