This slick 1966 Ford Mustang coupe is proof that you don't need to spend a big pile of money to get all your favorite features and upgrades of an early pony car. With an upgraded 289 V8, four-on-the-floor, and the perfect shade of red, this is a fun cruiser that will serve you well for years to come.
Red Mustangs always instantly attract an audience, but this one does it a bit better. Its unique shade is more vivid than even the factory's Signal Red. It gives this coupe a sporty look that is continued with the hood pins, dual exhaust tips, and Shelby-inspired hood scoop. And we know you've caught sight of the dual racing stripes. These are truly running the full length of the car, and that's why you see it in places most others don't extend to, like below the grille and on the roof. And because these painted stripes are clearcoated in with the red paint, you get a terrific even shine as the sunlight rolls over the whole body. And speaking of shine, the chrome is bright, the stainless has been polished, and all the little trim pieces are in place, right down to the proper Mustang badges. In fact, the only modern upgrade you'll notice immediately are the shining 17-inch alloys, but they're the kind of addition that just goes so well with this coupe's bright personality.
This special feeling continues inside. After all, the black interior feels a bit like an extension of the exterior racing stripes. The bucket seat interior now has a cup holder center console for added comfort. Purist can remove this for a more factory appearance, but we love how it comfortably sets up the driver. Your left hand rests comfortably on the thin and grippy factory three-spoke steering wheel, and your right one is immediately attracted to the Hurst shifter. And while the radio has been upgrade to a retro-style AM/FM/cassette with digital tuner, we really know your favorite soundtrack will originate from under the hood.
The engine bay is an attraction all on its own with the bright air topper, fender braces, and Shelby-style Monte Carlo bar. Plus, we all love the sight of Cobra valve covers. And more than just look nice, this 289 cubic-inch V8 has been upgraded for performance with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock aluminum intake, MSD coil, and long tube headers that feed the dual exhaust. These upgrades are really going to allow you to enjoy the full control of the four-speed manual transmission to the fullest. And that's what first-gen Mustang ownership is all about.
When you look at all the eye-catching features and great upgrades, you soon realize that this iconic coupe should cost a lot more. That's why you know you need to hurry to grab this deal. Call now!!!
