Not all great bargain 1966 Ford Mustangs are created equal. There are some cool cruisers out there bent on keeping it very original (and we've got a few of those for sale, too.) But then you get a coupe like this shimmering Burgundy with upgraded wheels and trim. It's the kind of custom Mustang you would have built to get attention in '66, so you know it grabs even more today.Someone pulled out all the stops to put this car together, and it's you who can benefit. Cost doesn't appear to have been a consideration, because the metallic Burgundy has so much modern gloss and shine it look candy coated like a cherry Tootsie Pop. The full luster in the deeper shade of red makes for the perfect backdrop to feature the upgraded brightwork. The custom billet grille, bright side trim (now with fender accents), and the mirror-like chrome bumpers all work together creating an unbeatable package when the sunlight hits this Mustang. The final piece are the iconic Cragar SS wheels that are the perfect addition because it's exactly what you would have done in '66 to create a terrific standout pony car.This special feeling continues inside. A pristine black interior is always desirable in a classic, and this one really goes the extra mile. The bucket seats, dash, door panels, carpeting, and headliner all show signs of investment in keeping this a Mustang to show off (even the trunk has the right matting, including the spare tire.) And since you'll be taking this on the road plenty, you'll enjoy resting your left hand on the factory-style steering wheel, and your right one will gravitate to the chrome shifter. You can focus all of your attention on this '66's upgraded gauge cluster, because the rest of the passengers will be entertained with the adaptable AM/FM/cassette stereo and comfortable R-134a air conditioning. Ford's reliable and perky 289 cubic-inch V8 moves the lightweight Mustang enthusiastically through any traffic. The engine bay is presented nicely with bold the Ford blue on the block as well as the bright valve coves and air cleaner. The tidy wire, hoses, and belts tell you this has been well maintained. Plus, the way this V8 fires up with enthusiasm, you can be confident in your ability to hit the road at a moment's notice. Adding to this drive anywhere/anytime attitude is the C4 three-speed automatic transmission, and the intoxicating sound that comes from a '60s V8 exhaling through a dual exhaust system.This coupe's show-ready status goes far beyond its stunning good looks because you even get all the right paperwork, including the owner's manual and original warranty info. But with all the great driving features, too, it might be hard for you to get off the road long enough to show off this classic Mustang. No matter how you decide to use it, make sure you get here quick because great-looking, great-buys like this are gone fast around here. Call today!!!
