1965 Ford Mustang Additional Info:
Clean Mustang Fastbacks are getting scarce, and this 1965 2+2 with the original Window Sticker shows you why. They look awesome, deliver a ton of performance, and, well, it's hard not to fall in love at first sight. There is a lot of history wrapped up in this sleek fastback and you'll love driving this car and the attention it (and you) get! This is one 'bad pony'!At a car show or a cruise or on the road, this IS the car that makes peoples shoulders drop, heads turn, and sigh in admiration and desireThis is the car that takes peoples breath awayThis Fastback is truly rolling artwork!ExteriorBrightRangoon Redin all the right places. This is the ORIGINAL factor color as denoted by the 'J' code on the door tag. The sheet metal is clean and straight and gaps are good. This is one vintage Mustang that truly delivers on its looks. The paint has a great shine, nearly flawless. Once full detailed and "clay bar'd", I addedCeramic Pro Nano Coatingfrom St. Louis Auto Detail (http://www.stlouisautodetail.com/ceramic-pro-nano-coatings). You won't be afraid to drive it and you'll definitely be proud to be seen in it. The chrome is exceptional too, including both bumpers and all the stainless trim, much of which has been replaced. LED Halo Halogen headlightsas well as a functionalLED sequential tail lightsreally help you see the road and be seen. If you want a classic early Mustang, they don't get much more classic than this.InteriorThewhite interior is factory originalwith a few modern touches, matching what it says on the door tag, offering white bucket seats with console and the beautiful fold down rear seat found only in the 2+2's. the dash has been upgraded withAutometer Phantom Gaugessitting in a classybrushed aluminum bezels, joined by auxiliary gauges, tachometer and more! The original AM radio is gone replaced by a newAM/FM Bluetooth head unit with auxiliary cord from Retro(model 2C with chrome face) along with aScott Drake Billet Antenna, Polk Audio MM651 6.5" front speakers, new dash speaker, Kenwood 300W Class D Bridgeable Multichannel MOSFET amplifier. However, if you are like me, you keep the radio so you can hear the sounds of thoseFlowmaster dual exhaust! There are also fresh door panels, new carpet, and the correct plaid trunk mat along with a full size spare.Engine & DrivetrainThe engine is a302 cubic inch V8, and while the VIN calls for a C-code 289, most will never know the difference. Upgrades are pretty extensive thanks to the 5.0 aftermarket and the list includesEdelbrock aluminum heads, ceramic headers, a polished Edelbrock Performer RPM aluminum intake, Demon 4 Barrel carb, Pertronix Flamethrower Distributor, Igniter III ignition system with a billet distributor.A few chrome pieces dress things up in the engine compartment likeCobra valve covers and aluminum air cleaner (with a K&N filter)and the engine looks pretty good all nested in the satin black engine bay. Shifting gears through thisupgraded C4 transmissionis firm and responsive. A bigaluminum radiator with a SPAL Automotive 16" 1298 CGM electric fanreally helps the car remain cool on those hot summer days without effort. Anexport braceandMonte Carlo barmake a noticeable difference in the way it handles too. Underneath, it's exceptionally clean and rust free offering a set oflong tube ceramic headersand aFlowmaster exhaust system with the correct trumpet tips. This 'stang sounds great! Also, hasa new gas tank, an 8" 3.25 traction-lock rear endand plenty of evidence of regular service over the years all make this fastback you can own with confidence.No oil drips of ANY kind. To top it all off, this car has never seen the rain and has theoriginal set of floor boards!!! Most Mustang owners can't say that I am betting.Steering/suspension/brakesControlling this classic is very easy via atilt column with billet steering wheeland aPro Motorsports front tubular control arms and a Flaming Rive Rack & Pinion steeringset up. Stopping? Easy with a set ofStoptech PowerSlot One front disc brakes (calipers & rotors), Hawk Performance Brake Pads, Scott Drake PBC-A1 Power brake conversion kit. Delicious.Wheels/TiresClassic17" Boyd Coddington Junkyard Dog wheels(17x7's-front and 17x8's-back) are the ideal choice for early mustangs and these wear245/45ZR17 Kuhmo rear tiresand225/45ZR17 Kuhmo front tires. This is an amazing look on this beauty and fit nicely inside the Mustang fenders (with a 4.25" backspace). Really a head turnerAre there cheaper Fastbacks out there? Possibly. What most don't realize is that even after the purchase of whats commonly available for sale, most buyers pour thousands into the car to sort out the car and make it their own.
With this beauty......you get a car that isfully 'sorted out' and this V8 fastback is exactly what it appears to be and more, with subtle upgrades that improve the Mustang experience without changing it.
This IS A TURN KEY wash & cruise Mustang that will leave folks looking on with envy while you smile with every thumbs up you get.You could show this car or just drive and enjoy it...either way, you will have one of the nicest in town I assure you.
