Vehicle Description
The super-clean lines and the sporty sheetmetal of this 1965
Mustang 2+2 fastback have made them the favorite classic for the
first-year pony car. So to have one that's restored with a sleek
black, healthy V8, and plenty of nice extras makes for an
all-around in-demand coupe.
You know from looking around at Mustangs the fastback is always the
most popular. After all, it was the style that looked like it had
the most gallop in all of the pony car crowd. And today that
admiration only grows on a car that looks this complete. The desire
starts with the paint. The restoration included a big investment in
professional application. It has the kind of luster to immediately
attract attention in the sunlight, and you just know you'll also
enjoy watching the finish reflect the neon signs at night. The
investment in this classic included the brightwork, too. The
bumpers, grille, rockers, trim, and other pieces have a shine that
rivals the paint. Add in those upgraded 17-inch torque thrust
wheels add to the flair while also letting you fit more modern
tires.
The fresh and clean black interior means this fastback has been
upgraded to the ultra-desirable full blackout style. The carpeting,
headliner, doors, and dash all have the right look of a quality
investment. You have bucket seats up front, and the rear bench fold
flat if you want this to have a true racecar look. There's even a
floor shifter and a nice wood-rimmed steering wheel on an upgraded
tilt column for the proper sporty style.
Under the hood, the clean golden air grabber and valve covers look
terrific in the tidy dark engine bay. As you get closer, the
restoration really shows it was detail-oriented, right down to the
factory-style decals. The consignor even believes this is the
original motor for the car, and that the low odometer reflects the
total mileage. The 289 cubic-inch V8 is a strong running package
that inhales deeply with a four-barrel carburetor. And the H-pipe
dual exhaust lets it exhale with a hypnotic tune. The photos show a
clean undercarriage and even an upgraded Flaming River power
steering system. There's also a three-speed automatic transmission
and modern Goodyear tires to keep this a fine driver.
The sale comes complete with owner's manual, build receipts, and
restoration photos. This always in-demand fastback has all the
right features to be more aggressive without losing that original
pony car spirit. It's a sleek and iconic total package that's ready
to hit the streets today. Call now!
