Not only are you looking at a 1965 Ford Mustang in the ultra-desirable fastback body, but this one also has some of the coolest upgrades around. From the custom double-black paint, to the upgraded V8 heart, to the five-speed stick, this one is an icon with all the coolest standout features.If you're a Mustang fan, you already know the 2+2 fastback is the most desirable version for both value and style. But from the first moment you lay eyes on this one your thoughts are just as much about a modern mean machine as they are about a classic design. After all, the matte black paint with glossy black racing stripes is a very cool and contemporary motif. And they went for the full midnight intimidation package on this one with the blacked-out grille, bumpers, and rear panel. This total package makes the bright headlights of this pony car look like the glowing eyes of a hungry panther. Then again, the real predator comparison might have to be a snake because of the way those Shelby mag wheels standout, too! Every time you open the door to this one, the red interior against the black makes it look like it's out for blood. But more than just an aggressor, this is a comfortable place to spend some time. The carpets, door panels, headliner, and bucket seats all have benefited from a recent investment that makes them feel quite fresh. You get all the right classic Mustang driver elements like the three-spoke sports steering wheel and extra long speedometer flanked by round auxiliary readouts. But there are also some great modern upgrades, too. One that's easy to spot is the AM/FM/CD stereo system that has an aux input for the most modern music players. But one enhancement that is a little more subtle is revealed when you count the gears on the floor shifter.Mustang fans will instantly get excited about the motor when you pop the hood. The larger 302 cubic-inch V8 wasn't available until later years, but this first-year fastback couldn't resist the upgrade to go with its aggressive. The larger V8 looks right at home with shiny valve covers and an upgraded Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor. Best of all, you are in complete control of this enhanced V8 and the dual exhaust's booming soundtrack thanks to an upgrade to a modern T5 five-speed manual transmission. You even have modern Kumho performance tires for enhanced grip.A powerful appearance inside and out combines with extra power under the hood to make for one of the coolest classics around. Something this unique only comes around once, so don't miss out. Call today!!!
