Vehicle Description

4218-PHX 1965 FORD MUSTANG FASTBACK

British badges adorning the grill tell a fascinating international story for this 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. Rangoon Red coats the sharp, decisive lines of this iconic pony car, highlighting every curve of the fastback profile that revolutionized American performance. The unusual nine-year stint stationed at an air base in England gives this Mustang a unique global pedigree rarely found in American muscle. The clean front bumper and grill maintain their proper form, while clear glass surrounds the cabin. Rolling on 14" wheels with 205/70R14 Hankook Kinergy ST tires from 2023, this Mustang combines classic style with modern road grip.

Black vinyl covers the bucket seats in this classic Ford's cabin. The ultra-desirable Rally Pac adds both tachometer and clock functionality mounted to the steering column - a sought-after factory option. The tight headliner shows no sagging, and the clean carpets feature distinctive red Mustang-branded floor mats for added visual contrast. An aftermarket JVC cassette player provides audio entertainment, while the aftermarket center console sits atop the stock piece for extra utility without sacrificing originality. Air conditioning creates a comfortable driving atmosphere regardless of outside temperature, and power steering allows for effortless control.

The 289 V8 has received substantial upgrades including a .30 over bore, flat top pistons, and a mid-range cam for improved performance. Hardened valve seats allow use of modern unleaded fuel without worry. A Weiand high-rise 4-barrel intake manifold topped with a Holley 600 CFM carburetor maximizes airflow, while MSD electronic ignition provides reliable starts in all conditions. Tri-Y headers connect to a dual exhaust system for improved exhaust flow and an aggressive tone. The C4 3-speed automatic transmission handles the power with ease, and the 8-inch rear end delivers it to the upgraded suspension featuring a bolt-in rack and pinion front end conversion.
