For Sale: 1966 Ford Mustang in Concord, North Carolina

This 1966 Ford Mustang has that ideal premium appearance on the outside. But beneath the skin are more V8 ponies for this Mustang to gallop and the control of four-on-the-floor. So this delivers on exactly what you want in a true driver's classic.

The first-generation Mustang in red is a true icon of the open road. So it really looks great with a later update that has a nice gloss in the sunlight. The sporty white rocker stripe package is a fresh addition. It joins the white vinyl top to give this coupe the all-American appeal of a Coca-Cola bottle. Good body panels, complete trim, and torque thrust-style wheels are all part of an overall package that likes to be driven and will turn a few heads out on the streets.

The two-tone style continues inside, and given this the kind of uniform style that really defines some of the best classics. And we especially like the way the red and white are intertwined on the premium "Pony" package upholstery. It's showcased nicely thanks to a more recent investment in newer seat covers. Fresh carpeting and a smooth dash also really help make this a fine place to spend some time. There's even the right upgraded, like a Bosch oil pressure gauge, and you have better driving music with an AM/FM digital tuner w/cassette. The classic wood-rim three-spoke steering wheel feels grippy in your left hand, and your right one may never want to leave the stick shift.

This is a C-code Mustang, and so it's great to have a 302 cubic-inch V8 under the hood. The bold blue block, valve covers, and air topper have the stock FoMoCo look. But you can also tell there has been a larger investment in the whole engine bay. This includes a Holley four-barrel carburetor MSD ignition, MSD coil, and upgraded pulleys. The V8 fires up readily, and the headers add to the power package while still given a dignified rumble to the dual exhaust. And you have complete control over the power and soundtrack thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. Those upgraded alloys also allow for modern performance tires, and there's power steering and front disc brakes. So this upgraded pony car offers better power and poise.

This has the look you love of a first-gen Mustang, and it has the power you really always wanted. That makes for a terrific total package. Call today!!!
