1965 Ford Mustang Convertible

Description

This 1965 Ford Mustang is for the collector out there. It's the rarest form around - a bench seat convertible! It also has been long-term owned by the same family for nearly 45 years. And the cool color package inside and out means you've got a distinct classic cruiser with an awesome history.

The trim tag tells us a lot of desirable things about this pony car. It indicates that this was born a Y-code Silver Blue metallic convertible. The factory-correct color has the kind of bright presence that can be a standout in a crowd. Plus, the white vinyl folding roof gives the convertible a distinctively premium touch. It's all done with a very driver-friendly and driver-friendly style. That means this is the kind of convertible that you won't get nervous to drive to car shows that are further away or just simply cruise all Sunday. And you will want to show this one off because it allows you to talk about history. This drop-top has been under the care of the same family since 1978, and so it's an American icon that's also been an heirloom. And this one represents a well-respected classic correctly with nice brightwork, well-fitting panels, and a refreshingly stock style - right down to the wheel covers.

The color package is appealing because the exterior blue looks like an ocean wave, and the white convertible top is its crest. But it gets even better when you take the top down. The factory-correct blue interior harmonizes with the lighter blue exterior for a full tropical sea style. Like the exterior, it's a true cruiser style, and it's also very vintage inside, right down to the details. So classic car lovers will appreciate the little things, like the color-matched convertible boot, smooth operation of the power top, and even the AM radio is still cranking out tunes. But the best feature of all is the seat because Mustang people instantly recognize the front bench with fold-down armrest. It makes this the rarest interior of the whole line with less than one-half of one percent from the total 1965 production having this body/seating configuration.

Under the hood is Ford's hardy 289 cubic-inch motor. It has a very stock style presentation, and that feels right for a long-term car. We're told the motor was rebuilt at the beginning of the family's ownership, and the way it fires up and runs today reaffirms a feeling of decades of care. Plus, the three-speed automatic transmission, power steering, and newer shocks make this an all-around solid driver.

Complete with owner's manual, true rarity and true history come together on a truly desirable drop-top classic. Call today!!!
