For Sale: 1965 Ford Mustang in Lavergne, Tennessee

Awesomely upgraded V8 power, four-on-the-floor, and a cool/coordinated paint package make this 1965 Ford Mustang convertible quite a distinct and desirable machine. It's the kind of classic pony car that has a speedy style and the performance to back it all up. So it will be your new favorite driving drop-top.

The white paint has a good luster that loves to radiate in the sunlight, and that's perfect for a sunshine-friendly convertible. This has attractive dual blue racing stripes to add some speedy flair. Not only were they painted for permanence, but they also harmonize with the pristine blue convertible top. And there are more of the right hints of sporty attitude with GT-style dual exhaust tips coming through the rear valence, and the Eagle alloys have a 17/18-inch front/rear stagger and wider rear set for an awesome stance. And anyone looking past the speedy style will start to see the fundamentals are also looking great. The trim is bright, the panels are straight, the doors shut solid, and the bumpers have terrific shine.

With the flip of a switch, the roof powers down to reveal a blue interior with white accents. It makes for an attractive and coordinated package inside and out. Just like the exterior, there was investment here to keep this looking good while retaining a stock style. So there are fun details like the classic pony floor mats, working under-dash lights, and the AM radio is still on display in the dash. And you get that proper driver's car feel with front bucket seats, a Hurst floor shifter, and a grippy wood-rimmed steering wheel.

The engine bay is stuffed with more power than you could get in 1965. The 302 cubic-inch shows off its more powerful heart with a Cobra long air grabber, matching ribbed valve covers, and a Monte Carlo bar. This also has the right power upgrades, including an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, an Edelbrock intake, and long tube headers feeding the dual exhaust. You take proper control over this powerhouse with the four-speed manual transmission. Plus, there's added confidence from upgrades like subframe connectors, new front bushings, new shocks, power brakes, front discs, and grippy ZR-rated tires.

Power, poise, and Shelby-style fun come together on this upgraded pony car. Don't miss your chance at this drop-top, call today!
