1965 Ford Mustang Convertible

Description

A turn-key cool-cruising iconic droptop at quite a nice price. This 1965 Ford Mustang convertible combines the best period-correct features and some great upgrades to create your new favorite classic of all time.

The color of this convertible makes it the perfect standout. A first-generation Mustang dressed in red is iconic, but when you render it in a deeper shade of its Vintage Burgundy, it gets extra attention when hanging out with the other classics. The investment in a professional paint application gives this factory-correct color a deeper shine than it originally had, so you get extra luster every time you take this one out into the sunshine – exactly what you want on a classic convertible. But it's more than just the paint that is a standout. Mirror-like chrome, bright trim, and an upgrade to the GT-style trumpeted rear exhaust add to both the sporty and sophisticated appeal. And those 14-inch styled steel wheels are the exact way you want to promote distinction.

Not only does the black convertible top look great against the deep burgundy, but with the touch of a button, it folds down to reveal an equally nice black interior. So this one looks great with the roof on or off. But this isn't a full sea of darkness. The desirable console has the stylized bright strip running though the center of the car. Plus, there's plenty of brightwork on the original style dash and door panels. And speaking of original, this one feels authentic right down to the correct trunk mat. But a classic like this was meant for driving. That's why it has some tasteful upgrades like cup holders and a retro-style AM/FM stereo. You'll enjoy resting your left hand on the wood-rimmed steering wheel, and your right one will gravitate to the chrome shifter. And yes, you did spot a cool upgrade to the tack/clock combo off the Rally Pac.

For those who understand what a C-code mustang is supposed to look like, you're going to get quite excited when you lift the hood. This 289 cubic-inch V8 is correctly dressed with the bold gold air topper and matching valve covers. The details in this engine bay are quite good. Not only do you get elements like the correct decals and coolant bag, but also it even retains the correct Autolite carburetor (rebuilt around halfway through the car's life.) But originality does not mean missing out of the correct maintenance. That's why the belts, wires, and hoses feel fresh, and you even have a newer dual exhaust to enjoy the V8 sound. And as a true cool cruising classic, you'll enjoy features like power steering and the three-speed automatic transmission.

A sophisticated presentation that has all the best originality and the right upgrades. This is a total package classic that will not disappoint. Don't miss out, call today!
