Description
motodrome offer this utterly splendid 1966 Ford Mustang Fastback automatic, finished in Springtime Yellow with black interior.
For most people, the fastback is the body shape to have, and the 66 model is the classic original incarnation before Mustangs started getting ever bigger and heavier.
This one started life as a 289 V8, but at some point it seems to have been re-engined to a 302 V8.
Fitted with power steering, Wilwood front disc brake conversion, American Racing wheels, B&M gear shifter, inertia reel 3-point front seat belts, and rear seat belts too. Mechanically it has electronic ignition, an alloy radiator, Holley 4-barrel carb, exhaust headers, and an auxiliary electric fan.
It’s important to note that this one hasn’t been a trailer or garage queen – it’s been used extensively since it arrived in the UK and registered here in 2014.
It’s had just two owners since UK registration, the last since 2017, and we understand he used it very regularly indeed, to the extent that it’s covered nearly 30000 miles in his ownership.
The history file we have shows meticulous maintenance whilst with the last owner – apart from regular servicing, highlights include
Car fully inspected and recommissioned by Mustang Workshop in 2017 inc full brake overhaul and lots of other work
Front suspension stripped and rebuilt, and car fully dinitrolled 2018
Holley 600 carb overhauled 2019
New alloy radiator 2020
Autobox overhauled with new torque converter 2020
New dual-circuit brake master cylinder 2020
New front shocks and springs, and rear shocks 2024
Last serviced summer 2025 at 79496m
Odometer reading now 79900m
It is, in my opinion, a very fine early Mustang, and both looks and sounds superb.
It starts on the button and isn’t temperamental at all – I’d drive it anywhere.
On our own website, you’ll find our usual 2 videos: a walkaround appraisal, and driving impressions, which form part of the description.
