There's already a ton of appeal in finding a first-year pony car like this 1965 Ford Mustang. And with its more aggressive exterior, enhanced V8 power, and the control of a five-speed manual, you can see this is a standout true driver's package.



A first-year pony car always looks good in white. This is a glossy respray that looks good without ever taking itself so seriously that you'll hesitate to drive it. And the white paint also means you really pick up on the black GT style triple stripe package on the rocker panel. The stripe gives a hint of added aggression that's furthered by upgrades like the power dome of the fiberglass cowl hood, large dual exhaust tips, deleted bumper guards, GT-style fog lights, and a Shelby-inspired grille. And the Weld-style racing wheel with spinner trim and an extra meaty rear set bright together a look that tells people you have an enhanced classic.



The hints of black on the outside get you ready for the full black interior. Fundamentals like upholstery, carpeting, and door panels have the clean look of a driver's car. Plus, this has the added comfort of an armrest center console and an AM/FM/CD stereo. The front bucket seats and wood-rimmed three-spoke steering wheel give you the right classic driver feeling. And the auxiliary gauge trio under the dash, tach mounted on the A-pillar, and Hurst shifter are upgrades that get you ready for something special under the hood.



Ford's 302 cubic-inch V8 is a great motor to have because it was larger than what Ford was offering in '65. It has been further upgraded for performance with Holley four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock 289 Performer intake, and a Mallory electronic ignition. The motor fires up nicely, and the upgrade to a five-speed manual transmission means you get to take even better control than they got in '65. This coupe is a solid driver, and it really likes to let you feel the road. And part of being a good driver also means better stopping power with Wilwood front disc brakes.



This is a cool-looking coupe built to be enjoyed to the fullest. So if you love harnessing a more powerful pony, call now!
