This 1965 Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback C-Code represents one of the
most desirable body styles of the first-generation Mustang,
combining timeless fastback design with tasteful presentation and
documented care. Finished in Raven Black with striking red GT
stripes, this Mustang delivers the aggressive, performance-oriented
look enthusiasts expect while maintaining an honest, well-preserved
character that reflects its history and proper restoration.
Power comes from a 289 cubic inch V8 paired with an automatic C4
transmission, offering smooth, reliable performance that makes the
car enjoyable both on the road and at shows. The addition of GT
equipment enhances the overall presence, complemented by dual
exhaust that gives the car a proper V8 sound without being
overbearing. A 2.80:1 rear end provides relaxed cruising, while the
rear-wheel-drive layout keeps the classic Mustang driving
experience intact.
The iconic 2+2 fastback body style is a standout feature, further
enhanced by steel styled wheels wrapped in double redline bias-ply
tires that perfectly suit the car's mid-1960s character.
Independent front suspension and a rear leaf spring setup provide a
balanced ride, while front and rear drum brakes remain correct to
the era. The car sits with a confident stance and presents
extremely well, with only minor flaws noted and documented in the
photos.
Inside, the black crinkle vinyl interior maintains a clean, classic
appearance and pairs beautifully with the exterior color scheme.
The fold-down rear seats, a hallmark of the 2+2 fastback, add both
visual appeal and practicality, making the interior feel open and
versatile. Red oxide floorboards are visible underneath,
highlighting the solid condition of the structure and reinforcing
the quality of the restoration work.
This Mustang was garage stored from 1980 until its restoration in
2016, a fact that shows in its overall condition and preservation.
The presence of the buck tag, door warranty tag, and matching inner
fender VIN further adds to the car's credibility and desirability
for collectors who value documentation and authenticity. These
details confirm the car's identity and provide confidence in its
originality and proper care over the years.
Showing excellent overall with only minor imperfections, this 1965
Mustang Fastback strikes an ideal balance between collector appeal
and real-world enjoyment. It offers the unmistakable look of a
first-generation fastback, the sound and feel of a V8, and the
reassurance of a well-documented history. Whether added to a
collection or enjoyed on weekend drives, this Mustang delivers the
classic American performance image that made the model an icon and
continues to define the era.
