Description
1966 FORD MUSTANG - V8 289 Fastback - Original - Australian Car
1966 Fastback - Stunning colour combination - Night Mist Blue exterior with Wimbledon White Interior. Ex Australian Car
289 V8 - 4. 7L - Automatic - Right Hand Drive, Power Steering and Disc Brakes.
I purchased this car in 2010 from renowned Australian Mustang restorer Bill Cant in Victoria Australia, post a full nut and bolt restoration. In the first week of ownership the car won the MOCA-VIC 2010 Mustang Round up & Concourse Head Judges Choice - a credit to Bill's standard of restoration.
I subsequently used the car as my daily driver in Melbourne for the following 13 years, shipping it to the UK in 2023 on the back of our family relocation.
I have absolutely loved owning and driving this car, which without fail gets comments and appreciation for its stylish appearance and condition every time its out.
I have deliberately kept the car as stock and original as possible from a looks perspective - with the obvious improvements to safety and drivability including disc brakes, power steering and right hand drive.
The cars body is extremely straight, rust free and solid on all fronts, with the only indication of age being the patinaed paint - which shows its age and the fact it is a driving car.
The Wimbledon White interior of the car is very clean and offsets the dark blue exterior well.
Mechanically the car has been extremely reliable, is a pleasure to drive and has a wonderful tone/ rumble.
Our entire family will be extremely sad to see this Mustang leave, however we hope the next owner gets as much fun, enjoyment and happy memories as we have.
