Vehicle Description
There's a hierarchy when it comes to 1966 Ford Mustangs, and for
the performance lovers, the K-Code HiPo 289 is king. Finding one
with a correct-style V8 under the hood, four-on-the-floor, and full
red presentation inside & out means you're looking at rare pony car
royalty.
Collectors know a K-code Mustang is in the one-percent rarity range
of total pony car production from the first few years. So these
high-performance coupes are always in high demand. The panels line
up nicely, which adds to a proper presentation of the
factory-correct Candyapple Red. The brightwork is complete and
straight on everything from the mirror-like chrome bumpers to the
correct high-performance 289 badges. We particularly like how this
one retains a classic-style, but it still knows how to announce its
extra performance with the right period-correct features. There's a
GT-style grille and the styled-steel wheels are Mustang icons.
Plus, the double redline tires are nice performance pieces that
also coordinate with the paint.
There's even more period-correct distinction when you open the
door. It starts with the factory-correct red vinyl seats with
comfortable red textured inserts. They coordinate nicely with the
side panels, carpeting, dash, and even the exterior paint to give
this coupe an aggressive full red package. Vintage fans will love
details like the grippy three-spoke steering wheel and AM radio
that's still cranking out tunes. Performance lovers will be
instantly attracted to the floor shifter and the desirable Rally
Pac tack and clock mounted on the steering column.
As much as you'll love the interior and exterior, it's the rare
K-code HiPo 289 cubic-inch V8 under the hood that will truly
impress. After all, it's the motor that took home the trophies
around the globe, and the presentation today has a great look,
right down to the decals. While Ford didn't do numbers-matching
criteria in '66, the block has the correct stamping, there are the
performance code-21 heads, and other signs that this the correct
powerhouse for this powerful pony. The V8 inhales deeply from the
four-barrel carburetor. And the H-pipe dual exhaust combines with
the control of the four-speed manual transmission to make you the
conductor of a high-power symphony.
This is a nicely detailed car, right down to the trunk with the
correct mat and full-size redline spare. So to have something so
cool also be so rare is the kind of treat we all can't resist. Call
