Description
This 1966 Ford Mustang coupe was acquired around three decades ago by the seller, who reports it had been refurbished by a dealer following a period of storage. The car was originally equipped with a three-speed manual transmission and has been modified with a Tremec World Class five-speed, stainless-steel brake lines, and a dual-circuit master cylinder. Other work includes replacement of the rear frame rails, rear and front springs, and a rebuild of the C-code 289 performed in 2003 using the original block and cylinder heads. Finished in red, the car features 1968 GT-style wheels, chrome bumpers, front bucket seats, and an AM radio. The seller describes it as a running-and-driving project that would benefit from further restorative work. This Mustang is now offered with spare parts, a car cover, and a Maine title in the seller’s name. The body has received rust repairs and frame repairs, although the seller states that the paint is rough, with previous bodywork and a significant amount of body filler. The seller believes the car may have been rear-ended previously and tells us that while the exterior repair presents well, evidence of the repair is visible inside the trunk. Rust is noted in the right-rear floor pan.
