Arguably, cruising down the highway from behind the wheel of a
first-generation Pony Car may just be one of the best things life
has to offer. This 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe comes to us fully
repainted in its original Candy Apple Red. With its Shelby-style
grille, and GT-style rear valance, it showcases its straight lines
and aggressive stance in a cool, collected way from every
angle.
Inside, we find an original-looking black vinyl interior. A drop-in
center console, complete with dual cupholders, separates a pair of
bucket seats, while a Grant three-spoke wood-rimmed wheel showcases
a Mustang center cap, positioned just ahead of an Auto Meter
8,000-rpm column-mounted tachometer and a five-pod Classic
Instruments Velocity gauge cluster featuring a big, center-mounted
160 mph speedometer. An upgraded custom Bluetooth-enabled USB
AutoSound head unit sends power through Kenwood kick panel and rear
speakers.
Under its steel hood, we find a 289-cubic-inch overhead-valve V-8
engine. Outfitted with a single four-barrel Ford carburetor,
aluminum radiator, electric cooling fan, chrome alternator, Flame
Thrower ignition coil, and FlowMaster dual exhaust, this small
block reminds anyone within earshot how a classic Pony Car should
sound. Power is routed through a tried-and-true T10 four-speed
manual transmission before heading out to the solid-axle 8-inch
rear end.
