Vehicle Description
While on the surface this just looks like a clean and classic 1966
Ford Mustang, under the hood is a rumbling motor that gives this
pony extra gallop. So if you like to look good and sound, this is
the coupe for you.
The factory-correct Silver Blue Metallic was given a respray later
in life, and the result Is extra vibrancy from a modern clearcoat
finish. This nice luster also helps highlight the crisp lines of
the classic Mustang sheetmetal. And while this one has a great
vintage look - right down to the shining chrome bumpers - you also
get the hint of extra aggression in the first impression. After
all, you have completion-style American Racing Torq Thrust wheels,
and the staggered tire sizes offer a bit of an intimidating
stance.
The black interior feels fresh from a recent investment. So it's a
nice place to spend some time, especially with other upgrades like
the AM/FM/cassette stereo. But what will really grab you is how
much this interior wants to get down to speedy business. You'll sit
down in the bucket seat and grab the wood-rim steering wheel. Your
right hand will be instantly attracted to the T-handle shifter, and
the white-faced SunPro auxiliary readouts are a bold standout in
all this darkness. This gets your senses ready for something
special even before you twist the key and hear this roar.
Under the hood is something quite special. The 289 cubic-inch motor
sounds and feels to be built, thankfully, it was installed in this
street machine instead. That means you have a sturdy V8 that was
enhanced with performance upgrades like roller rockers, closed
chamber heads, performance intake, and an Edelbrock four-barrel
carburetor. An upgraded V8 also means you have a sweet rumble out
of the dual exhaust. And the race-inspired four-speed manual
transmission gives you full control over this performance motor and
its growling soundtrack. Plus, traction bars and new tires complete
a package designed to effectively get the power to the ground.
This is the pony car with extra power and extra poise, so at a
price like this, you know you need to hurry if you want to take it
home.
