This 1965 Mustang Coupe boasts a stunning presentation in its
factory-correct Prairie Bronze finish, offering a subtle yet
distinctive glow under the lights. The body retains sharp, straight
panels with excellent fitment throughout. Up front, the chrome
bumpers shine brightly, complemented by the iconic galloping pony
grille emblem and clean headlight bezels.
Adding to its visual appeal, this Mustang features a black vinyl
roof in great condition, lending a classy two-tone look that sets
it apart from typical coupes. Polished chrome side mirrors, factory
badging, and Mustang insignias along the fenders complete the
authentic aesthetic.
It sits confidently on a set of polished aftermarket wheels wrapped
in Toyo performance tires, offering both modern grip and
vintage-inspired style. The lowered stance subtly enhances the
car's aggressive appearance without sacrificing ride quality.
Inside, the Mustang showcases a well-preserved and highly original
interior dressed in classic black. The bucket seats retain
excellent comfort and vintage stitching patterns, with a matching
rear bench that presents equally well. The door panels, headliner,
and carpet show minimal wear, a testament to the car's careful
upkeep.
The dash features factory-style woodgrain accents, clear gauges,
and chrome trim that retains its shine. An aftermarket shifter
controls the manual transmission, providing a more engaging driving
experience, while vintage air conditioning vents enhance driving
comfort.
Every detail-from the Mustang-logo steering wheel to the chrome
window cranks-adds to the nostalgic charm of this cabin, making it
the perfect blend of classic design and driving functionality.
Powering this Mustang is a stout Ford 289 V8 engine, topped with an
Edelbrock chrome air cleaner and valve covers for extra flash. The
engine bay is clean and well-sorted, featuring a modern battery,
updated wiring, and classic Ford performance touches.

delivering a connected and thrilling driving experience.
Underneath, this Mustang benefits from a dual exhaust system with
polished tips, giving it a deep, throaty tone that's sure to please
enthusiasts.
The undercarriage is clean and solid, showcasing a well-maintained
chassis and suspension setup, with performance shocks and sway bars
providing improved handling. A Ford 8-inch rear end completes the
dependable drivetrain.
