This 1965 Ford Mustang is a K-code fastback that was assembled in San Jose, California, and ordered through the Seattle, Washington, district sales office. The car was acquired by the seller in December 2018 and subsequently underwent refurbishment work that included a repaint in red over black upholstery. Power comes from a 289ci V8 paired with a four-speed manual transmission, and additional equipment includes chrome 14″ styled steel wheels, front disc brakes, a folding rear seat, power steering, and a push-button radio.
The car was finished from the factory in Rangoon Red (J) and is said to have been repainted during current ownership. Features include chrome bumpers, a driver-side mirror, louvered B-pillars, and dual exhaust outlets exiting through the rear valance.
Chrome 14″ styled steel wheels are mounted with 205/70 BFGoodrich Silvertown redline tires. Braking is handled by front discs and rear drums.
The interior features front bucket seats and a folding rear seat trimmed in black vinyl with a matching dash pad, door panels, and carpets. Sheetmetal surfaces are finished in body color, and amenities include power steering, crank windows, a heater, lap belts, a glove compartment, and a push-button radio.
A three-spoke steering wheel frames a horizontal 120-mph speedometer and auxiliary gauges. The five-digit odometer indicates 43k miles.
K-code Mustangs featured a high-performance 289ci V8 equipped with a four-barrel carburetor that was factory rated at 271 horsepower and 312 lb-ft of torque. The seller states that the engine was overhauled during current ownership and an oil change carried out in preparation for the sale.
Power is sent to the rear wheels through a four-speed manual transmission and a 9″ rear end, both of which are said to have been overhauled during current ownership.
