Vehicle Description
Cruisin Classics is pleased to present to you this 1966 Ford
Mustang. This Pony was born a Tahoe Turquoise car with Aqua
interior, but it sits before us today dressed in dark red metallic
paint and a red interior. The paint is driver quality and at 5 feet
it looks great, but a closer inspection reveals a variety of
imperfections. The exterior of this Mustang has some non-OEM
features that make it different than your average '66. The hood
features a faux air scoop with Mustang badging on both sides. The
linear horizontal grill is flanked by headlights and faux chrome
air vents, but lacks the "pony in corral" at the center. The chrome
front bumper has a nice shine and beneath it are turn signal
indicators on the lower valence. Both front fenders wear red,
white, and blue running pony badges and the rear quarters feature
faux side scoops. Bright window trim provides a nice accent to the
red body and this theme continues with chrome drip rails, ribbed
chrome rocker covers, bright wiper arms, dual chrome side mirrors,
and chrome door handles. Around back you'll find another gleaming
bumper, bright tail light bezels, and a "running pony" gas cap.
Under the bumper on the lower valence are reverse lights and
beneath that are exits for the dual exhaust. The car has a great
stance atop 5-spoke American Racing Wheels with Douglas Performance
tires up front and Starfire RS-C 2.0's on the rear. Under the hood
is a clean and tidy engine bay. The previous owner provided us with
receipts for all of the work done during their stewardship and
there was a very large sum spent under the hood. We believe the
engine to be a NOM 302ci V8, but it's a Ford - you've got to pull
the engine out to find all the numbers for proof. The V8 was
recently rebuilt and aluminum FloTek heads were added and topped
with aluminum valve covers. An Assault Intake was mounted on the
block and topped with a FiTech fuel injection system. A ribbed
aluminum air cleaner tops things off with a bright touch. Newer
parts abound, including the aluminum radiator, power steering pump,
brake booster, water pump, alternator, chrome oil pan, and a front
pulley system. This engine fires up with ease and runs strong! The
V-8 is mated to a C4 3-speed automatic transmission that shifts
smoothly as it should. Stopping power comes from 4-wheel power disc
brakes with drilled and slotted rotors. The upgraded brake system
includes a dual reservoir, new lines, and a new e-brake. When you
open the drivers door you're greeted by a red interior illuminated
by courtesy lights. The door panels are in good condition and
feature pistol-grip door handles (with woodgrain inserts) and an
interior control for the drivers' side mirror. The front bucket
seats are dressed in red vinyl with gold center insets and the rear
bench is done to match. The bucket seats have nice chrome side
covers and are in excellent condition. All seats are equipped with
new seatbelts with a running pony badge on the clasp. A red vinyl
aftermarket center console runs between the bucket seats and
features an armrest with storage box, 2 cup-holders, the shifter,
and a small open area for storage. Ahead of the driver is a 3-spoke
Grant GT wood steering wheel that has a nice period look. The
dashpad is crack-free and done in red vinyl. The original gauges
have been upgraded to Autometer brand and all are in working order
(fuel, water temp, speedometer, tachometer, oil pressure, and
voltage). The gauges are all set in a woodgrain bezel and
illuminate when the headlights are on. Also on the dash are
controls for the working 2-speed wipers and working fan and heater.
The dash is also home to a Kenwood AM/FM/CD stereo with a Pioneer
amp in the trunk and Pioneer speakers on the front kick panels and
the rear package tray. Woodgrain continues on the passenger side
glovebox door that also features a running pony badge. Open the
glovebox to find a working courtesy light and the switch for hazard
lights. Overhead is a tight red vinyl headliner and two visors
while underfoot is nice red hook loop carpet. Back in the trunk is
a plaid vinyl mat, a car cover, red rubber floor mats with pony
logos, the aforementioned Pioneer amp, and a file of receipts and
equipment info booklets for work done on the car in the last couple
years. This 1966 Mustang is a good looking and strong running car
that has recently been completely sorted out by a professional
shop. It certainly checks a lot of boxes with a strong rebuilt V8,
fuel injection, 4-wheel disc brakes, power steering, tons of new
parts under the hood, a great sounding stereo system, and a very
nice interior. This pony is turn-key and ready to hit the road
today - all it needs is you in the drivers' seat!
