1966 Ford Mustang Convertible For Sale
The 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible represents the final year of the
original compact body style, before the 1967 redesign added size
and revised the car's proportions. This example presents in red
over a black interior with a matching black convertible top a
classic period color pairing and is configured as a 289 V8
automatic.
Power comes from Ford's 289 cubic inch small-block V8, recently
freshened with a new four-barrel carburetor, a new alternator, and
a new battery with fresh cables. The engine fires at the turn of
the key. A steering shaft has also been replaced as part of recent
service. Behind the V8 is an automatic transmission, with power
routed to a rear axle running 3.00 gears a relaxed ratio better
suited to highway cruising than stoplight acceleration.
The chassis retains its factory-style drum brakes at all four
corners, in keeping with how the car left the factory. The red
exterior, black interior, and black top combination is one of the
most recognizable looks of the early Mustang era and suits the body
style the car was built around: a compact, lightweight convertible
designed for top-down driving.
For a buyer looking for a usable classic Mustang convertible rather
than a concours-grade restoration, this car covers the basics a
running 289 V8, a working automatic transmission, and recent
under-hood maintenance across the carb, alternator, and electrical
system, all wrapped in the early Mustang's most recognizable color
combination.
