The Appeal
The ultimate pony car? Perhaps even the ultimate American sports car. One thing is for sure, the Ford Mustang is one of the all time great American exports. Defining an era and sitting firmly at the top of the ranks as one of the most iconic automobiles made to date. It's certainly made a big impression since first exhibited at the 1964 World’s Fair.
A very early 1965 model, this wonderful 289 Mustang looks glorious in its cream and gold splendour, and brings with it the sultry soundtrack of the oh so wonderful 1960s. A true piece of automotive art, it's exceptionally well presented inside and out and will undoubtedly bring a horde of smiles and enjoyment for a new loving owner.
The History and Paperwork
- First registered 01/01/1965
- Imported into the UK circa June 2011
- The car spent some time in the Kent area prior to being acquired by the current owner in late 2016
- The Mustang is believed to have been subject to some restoration and reupholstery work prior to the current vendors acquisition however we do not have supporting paperwork for this
- MOT records indicate incredibly limited mileage has been amassed since the car’s arrival in the UK
- MOT, tax and ULEZ exempt due to the car’s age and historic status
- Lacking in physical paperwork, however examination shows it to be a clearly well cared for car
- Fully UK registered with accompanying V5
The Interior
- Excellent, highly original interior space, in great overall order
- Believed to have been subject to some reupholstery work by a previous owner
- Rich black seating front and rear in a like new state, with good quality stitching and cushioning
- Two matching black door panels in fine form with impeccable chrome decorative trim and door furniture
- Custom wood rim three spoke steering wheel
- Iconic 1960s horizontal speedometer
- Interior chrome trim presents very well throughout
- Plush black carpeting throughout
- Tinted orange sun visors which really do look the part and are a nice aesthetic touch in the cabin
- Large carpeted boot area at the rear, under which hide solid body coloured floors
- Angular black dash panel appears to be of a similarly high quality to the rest of the interior trim pieces and fixings
- Manual roll down windows front and rear
The Exterior
- Simply glorious exterior styling, iconic by its very nature
- More unusual but rather fitting yellow cream paint scheme with gold racing stripes
- In great overall aesthetic order, a truly well preserved and presented example of and early Mustang

- Panel gaps appear concise and consistent across the car

- Sat on four excellent American Racing five spoke alloy wheels giving the car a much needed, subtle, but more aggressive stance
The Mechanics
- 289cu V8 understood to be a C-Code engine nestled neatly under the bonnet
- Three-speed manual gearbox
- During its current ownership the engine has been removed and the block repainted and many of the ancillaries rechromed
- The car fires into life with ease, providing an exceptional, but not brash, V8 soundtrack from its rear exit exhausts
- Appears to have a higher specification aftermarket radiator
- The vendor reports a lovely driving experience from the mustang, with a good level of power and smooth, crisp gear changes
- Underside presents very well, and appears to be clean and solid
Summary
There’s just something about a Mustang. An unrivalled level of cool one simply does not get with other cars. There can't be many among us who haven't idolised the idea of owning this little slice of the American dream, and the 1965 example we have here allows the perfect opportunity for just that.
Well presented aesthetically and mechanically, in a great colour scheme and with a manual transmission. It certainly ticks all the boxes to make it a great pony car, and must certainly be one of the more interesting quality examples available on the market today.

Come funzionano le offerte massime
Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.
Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.
Anti-sniping
Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.
Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.
Incrementi di offerta automatica
- Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
- Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
-
- Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
- Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.
| Ammontare dell'offerta | Incremento |
|---|---|
| Da £0 a £9,999 | £100.00 |
| Da £10,000 a £49,999 | £250.00 |
| Da £50,000 a £99,999 | £500.00 |
| £100,000 + | £1,000.00 |
Superamento immediato dell'offerta
Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.
Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.
Offerte massime di pari ammontare
Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.
Pre-autorizzazione
Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.
Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?
Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.
Problema con l'offerta
Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
