Vehicle Description
This 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback GT350 R tribute has the ideal mix
of vintage and new. After all, it has that iconic fastback styling.
But it's also been upgraded with a stronger chassis, sports
suspension, a powerful fuel-injected V8, and a five-speed. And you
get to enjoy this sleek sports machine from the comfort of an A/C
interior.
This custom build starts with a very sought-after car. After all,
the 2+2 fastback is one of the rarest and most valuable
configurations for 1965. But then they turn the desirably up plenty
of notches with this one's speedy style. The hood scoop,
blacked-out grille, driving lights, hood pins, and larger side air
ducts are all icons from the years Shelby was building these out of
his Los Angeles factory. And that front bumper with room for extra
air gives this a competition-style GT350 R look. Plus, the gray
paint with black racing stripe package and crystal clear headlights
give this a more modern feeling like the Eleanor cars. It all comes
together on those Halibrand style wheels that have a coordinating
cool gray look, a large 17-inch size to fit modern tires, and a
timeless sense of performance flair.
There's plenty more speedy style on the inside. It has a
competition-ready look with the deleted back seat and an expertly
integrated roll cage. There's a Grant sports steering wheel on a
tilt column, crisp new gauges, and a Hurst floor shifter. More than
just the right performance-ready features, this has the solid look
of a good investment with a smooth dash, nice carpeting, a good
headliner, taut door panels, and the desirable deluxe "Pony" front
bucket seats. There's even added comfort with a cup holder center
console, power steering, and cold-blowing air conditioning.
The engine bay has the look a performance heart. It starts with
Ford's mighty 5.0-liter V8. This is a fuel-injected powerhouse with
a Spectre cold air intake, GT40P intake manifold, E303 roller cam,
and shorty headers feeding the rumbling dual exhaust. It's even
supported by the right pieces, like an aluminum radiator, Mallory
distributor, and the battery is mounted in the trunk for better
weight distribution. The five-speed manual transmission means you
really get to harness this pony's full power. This is a
strong-running package, and it also feels solid on the road. That's
because you have a Rod and Custom Motorsports chassis, Mustang
II-style front suspension, triangulated four-link rear, and
Ridetech adjustable coilovers. There's also Wilwood four-wheel
power disc brakes and BF Goodrich gForce Sport Comp tires for
superior stopping.
This GT350 tribute has been given all the right investments to be a
terrific powerful and sharp handling classic. So don't miss your
chance, call today!
