This 1966 Ford Mustang has a strong upgraded V8 and fresh
components to the desirable pony interior. It makes this one the
kind of true classic that also has the upgrades to make you really
want to get in and drive.
We all know how a Mustang should look, so you really want to make
sure you find a complete example like this one. It need the
wraparound chrome bumpers in a mirror-like shine, full trim, and of
course, the running pony leading the way. Plus, a first-generation
Mustang always looks stylish in red. This one even has some nice
sporty vintage details like the styled steel wheels and the
GT-style dual exhaust that's mounted through the rear valance. It
all gives this the right kind of feeling for a true classic
cruiser.
The red continues inside, but now it's joined by a tasteful
parchment. It looks especially nice on the newer deluxe "pony"
package upholstery with the running horses embossed in the
seatbacks. You can also see there was a solid investment in other
newer pieces, like the dash pad and headliner. Plus, this has some
great stock-style components like the desirable center console.
Bucket seats and a wood-rimmed sports steering wheel give this a
good driver-oriented feeling. The Instrument panel has been redone
with crisp/clean gauges, and there's also an aftermarket gauge pod
with water temp and oil pressure.
Under the hood is the clean look of a well-done engine bay. It's
believed that this V8 is recently rebuilt and freshly installed.
Mustang fans in 1966 would have to wait a few more years for a 302
cubic-inch unit, but this one gets the upgrade right now. More than
just look good, it has extra power with a Holley four-barrel
carburetor and Edelbrock intake manifold. It's a strong powerhouse
that makes a nice sound out of the rather straight set of dual
exhaust pipes. A smooth-shifting three-speed automatic transmission
and good modern tires are part of a solid driving package that
loves to keep you in touch with the road.
This is the pony car with fresh comfort and a healthy upgrade in
power. So if you really want to drive your icons, call today!
