The Appeal
A fastback '60s Mustang is the quintessential classic muscle car. It's as simple as that.
Its swept-back roofline, introduced for the '65 model year, lent the Mustang a more aggressive, sporting character that has since become one of the most recognisable silhouettes in motoring history. Paired with the 289ci V8 and a four-speed manual gearbox, this is the drivetrain combination that enthusiasts prize most highly.
Our Fastback was imported from Las Vegas in 2012, having previously been owned by a Ford parts dealer. Upon arrival in France, it underwent a full overhaul, and the bodywork and paint have since been refreshed twice, most recently in 2024 by a specialist. With matching serial numbers and a French Carte Grise de Collection registration, this Fastback merits serious attention from fans of the breed on both sides of the Channel.PHOTO-2026-04-14-12-27-04 2 Classic Cars Company.jpg586.55 KB
