1966 Ford Mustang Coupe - 289ci V8, Pony Interior, Automatic
This 1966 Ford Mustang coupe is finished in red over a black Pony
interior and is powered by a 289ci V8 paired with a C4 automatic
transmission. Equipment includes power steering, power brakes, a
woodgrain three-spoke steering wheel, factory-style gauges, and a
retro-style radio. Originally finished in Emberglo Metallic (Code
V), the car was repainted red under prior ownership. The Pony
interior was restored in black vinyl and presents well. This
Mustang is offered with a clean title.
Exterior
The car left the factory finished in Emberglo Metallic and was
repainted red under prior ownership. Chrome bumpers, trim, and
emblems are present, along with dual mirrors and styled steel
wheels. Paint presents well from a few feet back, but close-up
inspection reveals imperfections including scratches, touch-ups,
small bubbles, and prior quarter panel work that shows some
waviness. Photos of these flaws are included in the gallery for
transparency.
Interior
The cabin is trimmed in black Pony upholstery with embossed running
horse inserts on the front and rear seats. Interior condition is a
highlight, with clean carpets, solid headliner, and intact door
panels. A woodgrain three-spoke steering wheel fronts factory-style
gauges, all of which are functional. The odometer shows
approximately 59k miles, though total mileage is unknown.
Additional equipment includes a retro-style radio, working wipers,
and functioning interior lights.
Powertrain
The C-code 289ci V8 is paired with a C4 three-speed automatic
transmission. The engine bay is clean and orderly, with
correct-style Ford blue valve covers and air cleaner. The car is
equipped with power steering and power brakes, both of which
contribute to easy drivability.
Undercarriage
Underside photos show solid floor pans and frame rails with areas
of age, touch-up paint, and surface corrosion consistent with a
driver-quality Mustang. The dual exhaust system terminates in dual
mufflers and shows age but is intact.
Wheels & Brakes
Factory-style wheels are mounted with driver-quality tires. Braking
is handled by power-assisted drum brakes at all four corners.
Additional Notes
Clean title in seller's name
All gauges, wipers, and radio confirmed working
Interior presents very well, while exterior shows flaws upon close
inspection
Car runs and drives well and is best described as a driver-quality
example
Summary
This 1966 Ford Mustang coupe is a driver-quality example finished
in red over a black Pony interior and equipped with a 289ci V8,
automatic transmission, and power steering and brakes. While the
paint shows imperfections and prior bodywork, the car is
mechanically sound, easy to drive, and features an attractive
interior. It offers a strong entry point into classic Mustang
ownership, suitable for weekend cruising and local shows.
