This is THE icon. The 1965 Ford Mustang convertible is the car that defines an era and is always in demand. So to find an original first-generation droptop in its proper red color, 289 V8, and four-speed, it's the kind of icon you'll love driving.Bright red Mustangs are a staple of a good car show, and nobody will ever get tired of them. But to properly own this icon, you need to standout just a little bit. Here's an original J-code Rangoon Red convertible that has been given a professional respray to add gloss and shine that the factory never could. It gives this '65 Mustang a distinctive appearance that grabs attention without losing sophistication. There's the correct grille with the crosshair running pony emblem, '289' badges on the fenders, and the three-element taillights, all of which make it perhaps the most recognizable car on the planet. Combined with polished chrome bumpers and side trim, and the total package looks great. The finishing touch of sophistication is the factory-style wire wheel covers with spinners.Convertibles are meant to be open to the world, and so you'll love showing off the black bucket seat interior. Plus, the seats, door panels, and carpeting all have that fresh look that will make you proud to park it on Main Street. You get a three-spoke sports steering wheel with Mustang center cap, and beyond that is the full factory gauges package with everything working correctly. And we all know you'll love resting your right hand on the shifter. But take a closer look at this convertible, and you'll see a host of correct details. For example, in the trunk is the right style mat and has a full-sized spare tire something of a rarity these days. There's even a tight-fitting boot for the convertible top. But the feature you'll love the most will be the power folding roof. After all, it can turn any day into an open top cruise in a matter of moments.Under the hood is the famous 289 cubic-inch V8 motor. It has all the right specs for this C-code car, but there are also some cool upgrades in the engine bay like the shiny air grabber and Cobra valve covers. It's an overall presentation that's worthy of a car you're going to love showing off. The V8 has the kind of pep that helped make the Mustang a legend, and there's even a nice hint of rumble from the dual exhaust. Best of all, you are in complete control of the power and soundtrack thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. So yes, this is the perfect classic for everything from weekend cruising to a little open-top backroad fun.A red '65 Mustang convertible is always in demand, so when it's priced so right, we know you need to hurry to grab this deal.
