Zoom Classic Cars proudly presents this beautifully restored 1966
Ford Mustang Convertible, finished in stunning Tahoe Turquoise with
a Turquoise and White Pony interior. Combining the unmistakable
styling of Ford's original Mustang with the appeal of a
comprehensive body-off restoration, this outstanding example offers
classic Mustang character, attractive presentation, and enjoyable
open-air driving. The 1966 Mustang represents one of the most
desirable years of the original first-generation Mustang era.
Introduced in 1964, the Mustang revolutionized the American
automobile market, creating an entirely new segment of sporty,
personal cars. Its long hood, short rear deck, distinctive styling,
and extensive customization possibilities helped establish an
automotive icon that remains immensely popular with collectors and
enthusiasts. The 1966 model year continued that successful formula,
incorporating refined styling details and offering the distinctive
Pony interior that remains particularly appealing to Mustang
enthusiasts today. This Mustang underwent a comprehensive body-off
restoration in 2017-2018, with less than 1,000 miles driven since
its completion. The restoration is supported by extensive
documentation detailing the work performed, along with records of
subsequent maintenance. The exterior received a professional
repaint, with all body panels removed, painted, and expertly
reassembled as part of the restoration with all body panels line up
nicely. The finished Tahoe Turquoise presentation is complemented
by intact chrome trim and original-style badging, all of which
remain in excellent condition. The car also features the desirable
rally fog lights, adding to its distinctive Mustang appearance.
Under the hood is the desirable 289 cubic-inch V8, upgraded with a
mild camshaft and Holley four-barrel carburetor for enhanced
performance and a pleasing V8 character. The engine compartment is
immaculate, featuring special "289 Powered By Ford" valve covers, a
chrome air cleaner, and a new authentic Autolite battery. Power is
delivered through a rebuilt automatic transmission.Additional
mechanical highlights include:• Power steering• Front disc brake

Mustang runs, drives, and handles very well, making it an appealing
turnkey classic for cruising, local shows, and weekend enjoyment.
The professional repaint was completed with all body panels
removed, painted, and reassembled, contributing to the car's
excellent overall presentation. Chrome trim and badging remain
intact and in excellent condition, while the desirable rally fog
lights enhance its classic appearance. The car features a new white
power-operated convertible top with a zip-down plastic rear window,
along with a matching tonneau cover for a finished appearance when
the top is lowered.An especially thoughtful addition is a set of
custom protective pads designed to cover the convertible-top
mounting brackets when the top is down, helping protect the top

spare tire with cover, and an additional brand-new set of front
