Vehicle Description
This 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible is wonderful GT Tribute
restoration and is ready for some serious summer cruising.
Initially debuting as a mid-year model in 1964, the Ford Mustang
was an instant hit. With their sporty look and feel, along with
their modest price tag, the target market for the new Mustang was
young entry level buyers who were looking fun cars to drive, looked
cool, and didn't cost too much. With the success of the Mustang, an
entirely new sub-category/genre of muscle car was launched with the
Pony Car. Two years after its mid-year launch, the Ford Motor
Company did not mess with its enormously successful pony car and
little was changed with the '66 Mustang. Ford even advertised the
1966 Mustang with the tag line of "Relax Mustang lovers. Your
favorite car hasn't changed much in 1966." Perhaps the biggest
exterior style change occurred to the grille, shifting away from
the '65 honeycomb style to the horizontal bar, floating Mustang
look. The 1966 Mustang interiors changed a little as well from the
previous year model with the introduction of a 5 pot instrument
cluster treatment, giving the new Mustangs more of a race car look
and feel. With over 1.25 million Mustangs sold in 1966, Ford made
all of the right style changes. This particular Mustang Convertible
comes to us from a collector who owned and cared for the car for 25
years. Under the hood on this '66 Mustang is a 289 Cubic Inch V8
NOM engine paired with a Holley single 4 barrel carburetor. This
Mustang is a car anybody can take for a spin around the block
because the 289 V8 is backed by an Automatic Transmission. Dual
exhaust gives this classic Mustang a nice throaty sound. With Front
Disc Brakes, this little red Mustang has plenty of stopping power.
The chrome and brightwork is in nice shape as well, along with the
luggage rack mounted on the rear decklid. With power steering,
driving this 1966 Mustang Convertible is an absolute joy since
maneuvering in and out of tight spaces is made much easier. The
white vinyl power convertible top goes up and down with the simple
flick of a switch should you get caught in the rain. The exterior
has been refinished in a beautiful Candy Apple Red giving the car a
truly iconic appearance. Riding on Radial Tires with Wire Wheel
Covers, this Ford Mustang has a great look and even better ride.
The interior on this Mustang is spectacular. The front bucket seats
and rear bench seat feature the deluxe Pony interior and have been
reupholstered in Black and White vinyl. The woodgrain steering
wheel, dash with woodgrain accents, door panels and woodgrain
accented center console all have a fantastic look and appear to be
in their stock configuration. The dash is equipped with a 140 MPH
speedometer, temperature gauge, amp gauge, oil pressure gauge, fuel
gauge and an upgraded Kenwood AM/FM/Cassette entertainment system.
Whether you're adding to your existing Mustang stable or you're
buying your first classic car, this 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible
would make an excellent choice. Give us a call today!
