To view all 150+ full size pictures including immaculate underside, please click on this link:https://s664.photobucket.com/user/vapor08GT500/media/1971%20Fastback/20190504_194315.jpg.html?sort=3&o=0
  • IF BUY IT NOW IS USED, I WILL PAY SHIPPING ANYWHERE IN THE LOWER 48 STATES WITH A SHIPPING COMPANY THAT I HAVE USED FOR MANY YEARS WITH NO ISSUES THAT IS LICENSED, INSURED, AND BONDED IN ALL LOWER 48 STATES, OR UP TO $700 OF THE COST OF A PLANE TICKET FOR YOU TO FLY OUT AND DRIVE THIS BEAUTY HOME. :)

  • Car is probably one of the top 10 un-restored, mostly original paint 1971-1973 Mustangs in the world. These cars have been appreciating in value drastically in the past 2 years. These will be the next muscle cars bringing $100K+ soon, especially a survivor like this one!! Better investment than the stock market and unlike a stock, you can drive and enjoy it!. Really amazing mostly un-restored vehicle with lots of factory options! Never in an accident with no bumpers or trim ever removed that I can tell. Car was special ordered byThomas C. Page who was President of Philco Electronics that was owned by Ford Motor Company up through the late 70's. Philco made all the original radios in most Ford Lincoln and Mercury products from the early 60's through late 70's including the original working AM/FM in this car!! He kept the car for the 1 year lease period that Ford executives would get. Car was then sent to a Ford auction where it was purchased by a gentleman in Texas who kept the car and drove it sparingly over the next 42 years. It spent most of his life in the garage and was driven on weekends. In 2010 the car went to FL. It has obviously been driven on nice days only as evident by the completely rust free underside that shows its original beautiful floorpans, red oxide primer, factory undercoating and pinch weld over-spray, original Grabber Green areas, etc. Frame rails are perfect too unlike most others you will find. Never been jacked up incorrectly. Engine is the original numbers matching, born with M code 351C 4V block ( partial VIN is visible on the block) and original 4V heads freshly built in 2015 (less than 3K miles since) balanced and blueprinted with with hardened valve seats for unleaded fuel, port matched Edelbrock Streetmaster aluminum intake manifold with aDemon 650 CFM carburetor with electric choke, MSD electronic ignition with new plugs and plug wires, and ceramic coated Hooker headers, new oil pan, a nice rum-pity rump solid lifter camshaft. Engine is conservatively rated at 425 HP and 450ft lbs of torque with plenty of bottom end grunt. It was built to make tons of power and torque down low in the RPM's for consistent, reliable use and for cross country events such as the Hot Rod Power Tour. Car never gets hot even in 100+ degree desert heat. Nothing leaks. Engine absolutely runs as well as it sounds through its 2.5" exhaust with stainless steel Magnaflow mufflers. It is not loud at all on the freeway and you can talk with your passengers with ease or talk on your phone, and has an authoritative bark when you romp the throttle!! Transmission is the original 4 speed wide ratio toploader that is tight as new with no noise and has the original tag on it and partial VIN stamped. Clutch is new and easy to operate with out a high pedal effort and the original Hurst shifter has been rebuilt and is tight as new. Even the original rod is in place that makes you put the transmission in reverse to get the key out and the original buzzer works to warn and annoy you that key is in the ignition. Rear end has been rebuilt and has its original red oxide center section with all original markings and tag. Original traction lok was rebuilt and it still retains its' original 3.25 gears and new Timken roller bearings. Driveshaft has also been rebuilt and high speed balanced. There are no vibrations or odd noises and everything other than the clock and horn button work like they are supposed to. All gauges work and are accurate. Wheels are 15" chrome Magnum 500's. Shocks have been replaced and the car has the rare Competition Suspension option which most of these cars did not have which gives you stiffer springs, staggered rear shocks to reduce wheel hop, a larger front sway bar and the addition of a rear sway bar. Same suspension as the Boss 351. Interior is almost completely original with immaculate dash, door panels, bezels, carpet and rear panels. Original headliner does have a seam split than can be re-sewn if it bothers you by any trim shop. Rear panels were not cut for rear speakers. Rear speakers were Velcro-ed in to work with an I-pod (can be easily removed) and not hooked to original AM/FM radio which works with original speakers still as intended. All seat upholstery is original and in great shape. Rear seat looks like it has never been sat in. All the original engine components, and original steering wheel as shown in the pictures are included with the car including the original Autolite distributor and alternator with correct parts #'s. How many of these cars have all original, born with parts still, the original radiator support buck tag, original engine, trans, and rear ends with their original tags like this? The mostly original paint on body with is thin spots, few touch ups and patina is really cool too. With mostly original paint, you know there is nothing hiding under it. Paint is so cool and clean, it would be a shame to change it. There is minor rust bubbles developing in the pass side rear quarter panel as shown in my pictures. Again, I find the cars flaws add to it character. It is almost impossible to find one of these cars where the bodies and undersides are so clean and un-fiddled with The survivor cars are the whole new trend now and this one shows beautifully. How many 48 year old cars have never been apart? Most old cars don't drive as well as they look....this one ABSOLUTELY does and is a blast to drive. The 88K miles are original an less than 3K miles since the entire drive train was gone through completely and fully sorted. It gets thumbs up where ever you go and sounds fantastic with the headers, exhaust and nice cam. Car does not ever stall, is never hard to start, does not have any flat spots, and does not run hot even in the hottest of days in traffic. Even when sitting for a week, 1 pump of the gas pedal and 1 turn of the key and she roars to life, each time, every time!! It is also very easy to drive and a great amount of fun. I just spent $5K having the entire A/C system fully rebuilt, updated and gone through, flushed, rebuilt and upgraded internally compressor, all new hoses, gaskets, o-rings, etc. A/C will freeze you out of the car! Brakes are like a brand new car. It stops on a dime! Buy It Now for $39,900 (or you can make a reasonable offer for me to consider as I would like to sell this week) and I will pay for the cost of to your door shipping anywhere in the lower 48 states, or up to $700 towards the cost of a plane ticket for you to fly out and drive this beauty home and enjoy a little vacation in sunny, warm Palm Springs, CA that averages 95 degrees during the month of May. If you are local and pick the car up in person, I will discount the price $700 also. Whom ever hits Buy it Now, get this beautiful, needs nothing to enjoy now, with tasteful extras and FREE shipping anywhere in the lower 48 states or $700 towards the cost of a plane ticket from anywhere. Don't miss out and regret it later, you will never find another 48 year old Mustang Fastback with such great history and this well kept that is ready to do what ever you choose with it....shows, parades, club events, daily driver, weekend car, or can even be a tax right off if used for your business!

  • Thank you for viewing my auction and continuing to read!! After being disappointed by all the ratty collectible vehicles out there and looking at this one, please feel free to message me. This car is exceptionally nice from top to bottom!! Any other collector car you may be looking at, make sure they have underside shots. Even super low mileage cars if stored in humid area, the undersides are rusty and corroded just from the air. This one is super clean and the many underside pictures show this. You can see all the original red oxide primer, original undercoating, and even the black out factory pinch weld spray that Ford did. This car is as solid as can be! This car is much rarer than the Mach 1. I have never liked the cheap looking vinyl graphics of the Mach 1 appearance package anyway, so this looks much cleaner in my opinion. You can see all the options that make this car a 1 of 1 above in the Marti report pictures. How many of these original Fastbacks are on the road, let alone in this condition still today? I am sure you won't find another like it, or even close!! It will continue to climb and climb in value. This is a Buy It Now auction and it will sell and you will not find another like it for such a great price with several tasteful, functional, upgrades, such low mileage (88K original on body since new, less than 3K on motor, trans,and rear end rebuilds), and OCD maintenance since new. Most of my vehicles I list on eBay end up selling before listing ends due to time on the Buy It Now where you get it immediately!! No document fees or taxes collected by me. Don't miss out, this incredible Mustang Fastback will sell, hopefully to you. It has been lovingly hand washed and waxed often, even the engine box door and trunk jams, and underside are very clean. Look at the refection's in the paintin my pictures in the link above. Al original factory tinted Carlite glass for all windows. Windshield is even the Carlite original with no chips or cracks. All stainless steel and chrome trim is in very nice shape and also original to the car and never been removed. Try finding one of these these cars that has never been apart like this one. It looks, starts, runs, smells, and drives like a much newer car. Suspension and steering is tight with no wandering or looseness, no clunks when going over bumps, brakes stop on a dime, very clean interior and underside. Owner's manual still in the original locking glove box. No worn down seat upholstery or foam here. These seats are VERY comfortable even on longer trips!! Inside of the truck boasts the original splatter paint on inside of the quarter panels and trunk floor. You just don't see them this clean!! The hand painted pin-striping and Rat Fink trunk lid logo was done by Mike Hovland who is famous for his Rat Fink logos and stripes that Ed "Big Daddy" Roth created. If you do not like it, it can be buffed off. It has actually grown on me as it is so well done and ads character to the car. There is not a nicer Mustang Fastback available for less than $40K delivered to your door. I can honestly say that, because there are none other like this car anywhere for sale this original. Look around, you'll waste a great deal of time and then see what I am talking about and then most likely missed this car by then. If you want a project, please buy one, as this is not it. Finding one with a 4 speed is almost impossible to as most of the manual trans cars were beat up and wrecked by now. Please take the time to view the link above with the 150+ detailed photos it IS WELL WORTH the wait to scroll through them all, and PLEASE read the entire description before asking questions (I know it is long, but I wanted to cover all bases) If you are serious, I know you will read every word, and look at every picture in detail. This is the type of person I am looking for, for a quick and easy sale. I am very easy to deal with and feel free to message me for my phone number or send me yours and we can discuss every aspect of this amazing car. This car is priced for a quick sale to the discriminating enthusiast/collector that appreciates all the details, cleanliness, and correctness of beautiful 1 of 1 1971 Mustang Fastback. Everything correct on this car for both finish and function, so you don't have to do a thing to enjoy immediately. Ready to show, play, collect, or to just enjoy right away. Perfect advertising vehicle for your business too and can even be a tax write-off if used as such. Can be used in parades, proms, etc

  • Shipping included to your door by a licensed, bonded and insured auto transport company that I have used for many years with no issues or you are welcome to fly into the Palm Springs International Airport and I will pick you up and you can drive this gem home and enjoy a little vacation!! I would not hesitate to have my daughter or wife drive this cross country!! If you choose this route I will pay up to $700 towards your travel expenses to get to me to pick up the car in person in beautiful Palm Springs, CA where it averages 95 degrees in May. Either of these options are only available if Buy It Now is used.

  • Price is a Buy it Now of $39,900 to sell immediately and included to your door shipping anywhere in the lower 48 states. I can usually get cars shipped with in a few days from my door to yours. I am NOT interested in any trades or unreasonable offers and am only selling this beauty to make way for a new Ford GT that I have been fortunate to have the opportunity to purchase as these new cars are by invitation only and will be a bookend to my 2006 Ford GT that is also in my extensive Ford collection. I planned on keeping this one forever and will truly miss it. There is not a nicer, more fun to drive Mustang Fastback available for under $40K!! I priced this to sell, to sell quickly, and have paid for quickly with out fuss. You won't find a better car for anywhere close to this money. The lower priced ones will surely cost you a lot more money in the long run and still wont be as nice of a car as this one is already. Car is very smooth and easy to drive and tires and all fresh maintenance and all fluids done for you so you can drive and enjoy right away unlike the others you will have to put money in right away. Your wife could drive it and enjoy it too!! It is easy to start, drive, park and drive on the freeway. No taxes, document fees, or games like other charge, collect, and play. This car will sell, don't miss out, you will never find another like it in this condition with such tasteful upgrades. No expenses spared on this car from top to bottom, and front to back. Everything functions like it is supposed to. Message me with your phone # and we can discuss.

  • In my 25+ years in the automotive business and being a collector, I have rarely seen, owned, or driven a nicer built and well vehicle that is so fantastically built and taken care of. I have owned over 1000 Mustangs, Shelby's, Big Block's, Boss's, Pantera's, Saleen's, Corvette's, Camaros, Roush's, Cobra's. Lightning's etc, mostly collector models, and rarely see a vehicle (of ANY type) kept in this condition that is almost 50 years old. I am overly fanatical with all my cars, but rarely see others that are like me. I have over 20 cars in my collection and do not like to sell any of them, but when I do, the person that purchases what I'm selling gets the best of the best. This car is one of them and a true gem. Suspension and steering is smooth and not bouncy or twitchy when driving down the road, or on the freeway and handles beautifully. Does not wander when on freeway. This Mustang is appraised and insured for $50K on a collector car policy through Hagerty Collector Car Insurance and it is $320 per year for full coverage and agreed value of $50K with no mileage limitations. Most insurance companies will do the same for you and insure it as a collector vehicle and it is only going to continue to climb in value if kept in this condition. Be sure to check out my other auctions for my Grabber Blue 835 HP twin Turbo Shelby GT350 that I bought new and my shop built for SEMA, a 19K Mustang GT convertible that I bought new, and a 1967 Fairlane 500 390 with overdrive that is also mostly original paint.

Feel free to ask any questions and I will answer promptly. I have never had a person purchase a vehicle from me sight unseen that was not thrilled with their purchase!! My 100% positive feedback from those that have purchased from me in the past 13 years clearly reflect this, and many of the transactions were for $100K + vehicles. I reserve the right to end this auction early as thecar is advertised on several other sites and publications, so if you want it, use BUY IT NOW before someone else buys it!! If you can not meet these simple requirements, please do not use Buy It Now and waste your time, mine, and others that are serious. If you need more time or have questions about payment, please feel free to message me with your phone # and we can discuss. I am VERY picky with vehicles I choose to deal with and I know this car well unlike brokers or re-sellers that list cars and know very little about them.

  • In summary: EVERYTHING works properly as intended except for the horn button and the original clock. Both are easy fixes if they bother you. No burnt out bulbs anywhere. The dash lights, gauges, all work perfectly and are accurate. All signals, marker lights and even the back up light work like they are supposed to. You can let it idle all day in 100 degree heat and it does not get hot. This beautiful Mustang Fastback is absolutely like a step back in time. It runs and drives excellent and has never been raced, driven by kids, or driven hard. There are no odd odors, odd rattles, or odd noises. I can let it sit for 2 weeks and it drips nothing in my air conditioned and humidity controlled warehouse. There is very little wind noise with the windows up, even at high speeds. Door close solid with a thump. You can drive thiscar anywhere. Mileage may also varyminimallyascar may be driven for supervised test drives and/or inspections and I do drive it after letting it warm up to keep fluids flowing through all systems. I take it to Cars and Coffee and on the freeway often. Car will still be kept indoors when not being driven. Please feel free to ask questions and I will answer promptly. This car doesn't need a thing to enjoy right away. It is a no excuse, honest car, that needs nothing to use it and enjoy immediately. It is done right and completely sorted from top to bottom, front to back. The paint color combination and options are simply stunning and it turns heads where ever you go. People stop at stop lights and gas stations and make comments on how clean and original it is. It is a steal at under $40K shipped to your door! Nothing even compares to this car for under $50K!! Car is simple and inexpensive to maintain and is very safe and fun. Be the envy of your friends and neighbors!No excuses, issues, or stories with this car. Anyone can just go buy a new car....but how many can have a 48 year old, Mustang in the timeless Fastback body style with updates for the new millennium? Have a great day and thank you for looking and (hopefully) reading my long description..I just want to be thorough. Each time I think of something else, I revise the listing, add more pictures, and before I know it, it ends up this long!! Very few read what I end up writing, but if you have, thank you!! The first person that reads my entire listing, that has the means, is almost always the buyer, so hopefully that is you. I write as much as I do and take the amount of pictures and videos that I do, so you can be 100% comfortable as to exactly what you are getting. Feel free to contact me with any questions and have a great day. :)
