1965 Ford Mustang Convertible

Description

Red with white is already a great combination on any convertible, so when you get it on an iconic 1965 Ford Mustang with the iconic 289 V8 under the hood – all for under $28K – it's an irresistible find.

You can't argue with the image of fun that this bright red Mustang projects, and it's not an illusion. This neat ragtop wins friends everywhere it goes simply because everyone knows it's impossible to not have fun behind the wheel of a Mustang convertible. And it's in exactly the right condition for enjoying all around town. After all, there's no better way to arrive than in a sunshine-friendly droptop that has a standout glossy shine. But more than just the paint and bodywork, this one gets its details right. Fit and finish are good with the correct 289 and Mustang badging on the front fenders; nicely mirror-like chrome bumpers attract a crown on their own; and everyone loves the bright corralled pony emblem leading the way.

Underneath the white snug-fitting power folding roof is matching white seating. So no matter if you have the top up or down, you get drive around featuring this unbeatable color combo. And the real trick about this interior is that while the seats, side panels, steering wheel, and boot cover are all a pristine white, the carpeting is black. That way you can enjoy the bright interior, but not have to worry about taking off your shoes before hopping in on a whim. And that's the true appeal of a nice Mustang convertible. This American classic begs for the open road. The T-bar handle gearshift is a great place to rest your hand, the power top gets the roof down in moments, and the upgraded AM/FM/cassette stereo is ready to play your favorite road trip tunes.

Ford's reliable and perky 289 cubic-inch V8 moves the lightweight Mustang enthusiastically through any traffic. The engine bay is a great mix of upgrades and original equipment. So while the bright Holley air grabber will draw attention, people will really marvel at cool '60s pieces like the proper coolant bag and Powered by Ford valve covers. The V8 fires up nicely, so you'll love taking this one out on the road. And you'll be rewarded for doing so with the added performance from the four-barrel carburetor and the go-anywhere feeling of the three-speed automatic transmission.

As you look over the photos, you'll start to notice all the right details, like the updated dual exhaust and the glossy black undercarriage. It lets you know that this is not just a beautiful '65 Mustang droptop, but it also has had nice investments along the way. That's what makes this a nice presentation at a stellar price.
