For Sale at Auction: 1965 Ford Mustang in Scottsdale, Arizona

This custom 1965 Ford Mustang known as "GT 427" is powered by a 5.0-liter Ford Coyote crate engine fitted with an InnoV8 stack-injection system and Motec engine management. It is paired to a Tremec TKO-600 5-speed manual transmission with a Hurst shifter and a Moser 9-inch rear end with 3.70 gears and Wavetrac limited-slip differential. The no-expense-spared "GT 427" has been driven 112 kilometers since completion. It features power rack & pinion steering and Wilwood four-wheel disc brakes with nickel-plated 6-piston calipers and 13-inch cross-drilled rotors, providing modern handling and stopping performance. The custom JME all-aluminum front suspension with a CNC removable subframe is complemented by a Watts link rear suspension and Penske-designed coilovers on all four corners. The body features an extensive use of custom carbon fiber, including the hood with a separate scoop, roof overlay, grille surrounds, side skirts, front splitter, rear tail panel, mirrors and trunk lid, displaying a chevron pattern. The engine bay is fully carbon fiber and the one-piece front clip eliminates factory seams. The rear features a unique ground-breaking layered quarter-glass with a louvered appearance and flush-mounted glass. The interior is completely custom, featuring a GTO dashboard with Classic Instruments gauges, hidden roll cage, Sabelt Gen 5 Viper bucket seats reupholstered in leather, power seats and windows, and a full audio system with GPS, backup camera and alarm. Climate control is provided by a Vintage Air system. Exterior LED lighting includes integrated daytime running lights and backup lights within the tucked bumpers. It rides on Forgeline SC3C concave wheels with bronze centers measure 18x8 inches in front and 19x10 inches in the rear, wrapped in Michelin Pilot Super Sport tires sized 245/40R18 front and 285/35R19 rear. Titanium fasteners are used throughout the build.
