Vehicle Description
VERY SHARP! 302 V8, AOD 3-SPEED AUTOMATIC, PWR BRAKES, GREAT
COLOR!
With all the merely "pleasant" 1966 Mustangs around, it's nice to
see one that walks with some swagger. Dig the stance, the slick
paint, the great-running 302 V8, a quick-shifting AOD 3-speed
gearbox, and the fresh custom interior that's very nice and all-day
comfortable.
Dark Bronze Metallic always looks fantastic on vintage metal, but
on this car, it's really more of a disguise. A low-profile coupe
with serious blasting powder under the hood doesn't really need to
advertise too much with obnoxious loud paint. Since most guys won't
expect much of a fight from an early Mustang Pony, it's easy to
take advantage of them once you stand on the gas pedal in this
street brawler. Of course, that doesn't mean the bodywork isn't
straight, because it certainly is, and it's obvious that
considerable time and effort were invested in the paint booth
getting the finish to sparkle. Clearly the builders were thinking
carefully about curb appeal when this car was coming together, and
slick additions like the subtle hood scoop, Wilwood brakes, and the
bright exhaust tips that exit from under the rear bumper really
separate this beauty from the crowd. It also carries a nice batch
of shiny chrome, including sparkling new bumpers fore and aft,
bright trim-work around the crystal-clear glass, and a classic
'galloping stallion' front grille. Out back, you get a sporty
gas-cap and bright red taillights to match the crystal-clear
headlights up front, and the flashy wheels complement the livery
perfectly.
More significant investment happened inside, where a pair of like
new buckets anchor the super-clean, fully restored, vinyl cabin.
This interior is an awesome color combination that works perfectly
on this vintage Mustang, and the matching door panel inserts, plush
carpets, taut headliner, and fresh dash pad really dress things up
inside. Other smart options include a wood steering wheel, and a
retro-style AM/FM stereo that feeds upgraded speakers inside the
cabin. Out back, the trunk is fully finished, and it includes a
full-sized spare tire assembly.
No early Mustang is complete without a 302 under the hood, and the
snarky small block that powers this pony has a few upgrades that
make it a blast on the street. Up top, there's an Edelbrock
4-barrel carburetor, a stock-style intake manifold and ignition
system, and with the beautiful lope this small block has at idle,
it's obvious it's been homed in for battle. Black Edelbrock valve
covers and a matching air cleaner dress things up under the engine
bay, that excellent soundtrack is punctuated thanks to the H-pipe
exhaust and chambered mufflers, while the quick-shifting 3-speed
AOD transmission is exactly what you want in a vintage street
fighter like this, spinning what appears to be the original rear
end. It drives beautifully with the help of a front sway bar and
coilovers, and it stops with authority thanks to a thoughtfully
added Wilwood power 4-wheel disc with cross-drilled/slotted rotor
upgrade. Killer 17-inch wheels look great and wear performance
radials with plenty of tread left.
Fast fun in a universally loved shell, and a gorgeous restoration.
It's hard to make a mistake with an awesome early Mustang like
this. Call today!
