Finished in Ivy Green Metallic over a Parchment Crinkle Pony interior, this 1966 Ford Mustang Fastback was built on December 3rd, 1965 in San Jose, California. The car was originally delivered in the Phoenix district and was sold new by Paradise Ford in Scottsdale. It has remained in Arizona since new and was a solid, rust free example prior to restoration.
The Ford is a factory A code, 4 speed car and the GT options were added at the time of the restoration. The car features the correct, and much larger master cylinder, disc brakes, larger 13/16th sway bar, and correct HCC AW quick ratio power steering box. Also featured are the dual exhaust, deleted side trim, fog lights, and GT gas cap.
During the restoration, the car was stripped down to bare metal and received all new body work prior to a two stage paint job. The car has factory correct body gaps throughout and a properly fitting hood and trunk as well. All of the trim on the car has been refinished from front to rear and of course all of the rubber has been replaced. The car has an accurately restored and immaculate undercarriage finished in the correct red oxide primer complete with factory inspection marks throughout.
The car features the correct front disc brake package with larger master and the suspension has been totally rebuilt. Underneath, you will find all new hard and soft lines, shocks, springs, and rebuilt steering components. The tires are the styled steel wheels and the brand new tires are Redline radials that offer a much better ride than bias plys.
The Ford features a completely rebuilt drivetrain complete with the proper A code engine, 4-speed transmission and 9", 3.00:1 rear end. The car is also equipped with the desirable Cobra engine dress up kit and the correct York A/C compressor. Besides being completely rebuilt, the units have been precisely detailed per factory specifications. The engine compartment is a thing of beauty, and has level of detail we don’t usually see on Mustangs. The car has all of the correct lines, hoses, and clamps. It is adorned with the proper decals and even has a reproduction Autolite battery. It’s glorious, beautiful and much nicer than the last one you looked at.
The interior has been completely redone with new parts from Mustangs Unlimited and has the all new soft parts throughout. The car has a brand new and correct steering wheel, the Rally Pac cluster and correct GT Gauges. It also has the console and Pony interior as part of the interior decor group. Where the dash and console meet sits a brand new and Ford dealer correct Fordaire Condition under dash unit.
If you’re looking for just the right ponycar to fill out your stable, this 4-speed A-Code with A/C and GT options leaves little to be desired and must be seen in person to be truly appreciated.
