Vehicle Description
1965 Mustang with a built 289 with a five speed TKO tranny with a
Detroit Locker 456 gear rear end built by Strange! This car
belonged to a good friend of ours and he is one of the most
intelligent guys there is when it comes to Fords and the way they
should be built set up and ran. When he bought the car back in 2005
it was already set up for the strip. The car won many races and
actually set track records in its class. Since then he tamed it
down quite a bit but it will still throw your head back when you
run it through the gears! The 289 was bored 30 over blue printed
and balanced and the heads were ported and polished using Chevy 202
intake valves with roller rockers. The 625 cfm Demon carb is set up
perfectly. It has a shatterproof bell housing attached to that TKO
5 Speed on a "housed" driveshaft for safety. It has a very cool
1965 Accel dual point distributor with a cable drive for the tach!
It also features a "Line Lock" just in case you want to take it out
to the track for some real fun. There's lots of extra speed parts
(cam carb rear end wheelie bars suspension...etc) that was on the
car when it was raced that will come with the car. The paint chrome
trim and glass are like new with no issues whatsoever. The body
panels are ALL original and there is no bondo or rust on this car
anywhere. The finish on the paint is like a mirror! The miles are
actual to the car! The trunk has an auxiliary 1.5 gallon tank that
is switchable so you can put racing fuel in it for track days. This
car now runs on 89 octane pump gas with no hesitation or knocking.
This is one beautiful and fast Mustang Fastback that just needs a
new driver to take over and have some fun with. Financing available
shipping to anywhere in the world. Test drives with approved
financing/cash in hand only. Trades welcome. Take a look at the 98
