Vehicle Description
This 1966 Ford Mustang is a true vintage machine that highlights
what you love about the first-gen pony car while also giving you
some added style.
The Dark Green Metallic keeps this coupe distinctive, and it's the
factory-correct color. It was given a respray later in life so that
the deep green also retains a glossy finish. Having a Mustang in a
darker color not looks stylish, but it also allows the brightwork
to stand out nicely. So the form-hugging chrome bumpers, fender
vent trim, window trim, and galloping pony grille all are quite
noticeable. And this one even has some sporty upgrades that still
keep a classic feel. The triple rocker stripe contrasts the green
in a similarly attractive way as the brightwork. And those American
Racing Torq Thrust wheels have a vintage style, but their 17-inch
size allows for more modern tires.
The factory-correct black interior is the right color against the
dark green exterior. The trim tag tells us this was born a deluxe
"Pony" package car. So it always an extra of desirability to have
the running horses embossed into the premium seats. The taut door
panels, smooth dah pad, and nice headliner are all part of making
sure the fundamental keep this looking good. The presentation is
highly authentic, right down to the heat/defrost sliders and trunk
mat. You'll especially appreciate details, like the working
courtesy lights in the door, and they even kept the correct stock
AM radio there on display. And pieces like the newer floor mats and
wood-rimmed steering wheel fit in with this classic atmosphere
while also giving you want you want in a driver's car.
V8 Mustangs are always in-style, so it's great to see a correct and
tidy presentation in this 289ci C-code coupe. The bold blue block,
shining valve covers, and bright air grabber w/callout make sure
this looks impressive from afar. And those who get closer will see
well-done details with newer belts, hoses, wires, and even the
correct decals. A stylish motor like this also proves that it was
given the right kind of attention and proper care. So this V8 fires
up readily, runs well, and makes a good tune out of the H-pipe dual
exhaust. This is the kind of classic that wants you to feel the
road, but it also has a smooth-shifting three-speed automatic
transmission to help keep the journeys easy.
Previous sales have even suggested that significant items like the
motor and interior components could be original. There is no
current evidence to verify this, but it all contributes to the
larger idea of an interesting coupe that takes its iconic style and
delivers an interesting mix of detailed nostalgia and useful
upgrades. And the full package makes for a nice pony car classic.
