1965 Ford Mustang Convertible, near concourse condition. For Sale

Originally built at the Metuchen, New Jersey factory in 1965 as a Mustang six-cylinder convertible, it was purchased by the current owner in 2000 from “Mustangs Only”, LA, California uprated to 289 GT specification, having been fitted with a rebuilt 289 V8 engine with a 4-valve head running through a new C4 Automatic transmission to a rebuilt rear end with Posi Traction (Limited Slip Diff). The steering was uprated to V8 power steering, with front disc brakes. The initial specification is confirmed in a 51 item specification from “Mustangs Only” in the history file when the car was supplied to the owner in 2000.

On arrival in Jersey, the Mustang was improved and regularly serviced over the period 2000/ 2009 and again, the history file has accounts from us for maintenance and general improvement totalling more than £10, 000 over the nine year period to 2009.

In 2009 the decision was taken to restore the bodywork and upgrade the car to another level of condition. The work comprised a comprehensive bodywork restoration which was carried out in our workshops and completed in 2011. The total cost for labour and parts was just under £55, 000. The work carried out and invoices are detailed in the history file which accompanies the Mustang, and which confirm that the car is capable of being used on a regular basis and ideally suited for road trips in Europe.

The car is now in excellent near concourse condition, presenting extremely well in red with new US-supplied red and white Pony interior complimented by a white hood and polished allow wheels. The comprehensive history file has detailed accounts of the work carried out in stages 1 & 2 of the restoration program. The Mustang has been restored to very high standard of panel fit, with great attention to detail getting panel gaps correct - this was not a budget restoration, but one to produce a car in super condition.

Mechanically the car has been kept to a very high standard, being serviced on a regular basis, the engine has been retuned by Le Riche after the fitting of an Edelbrock four-barrel carburettor to replace the Holley fitted in California. In addition, the Mustang is fitted with many original GT options such as the dual exhaust system, LSD, sway bars and front disc brakes. It is car that performs as well as it looks, and is accompanied by the following documents:
