DESCRIPTION
1966 Ford Mustang Convertible
For consignment, a 1966 Ford Mustang convertible showing 19,657 miles but true miles are unknown. Our consignor states that these are the mileage since the car\'s nut and bolt 2 year professional restoration that was completed in 2001. The restoration is well documented and you will get the car with a large folder of receipts.
Exterior
Can\'t miss Candy Apple Red blankets this sweet ride with contrasting white canvas soft top and 15-inch Styled Steel wheels enhancing the profile. Those wheels include a red center cap and are wrapped in red line 215/65R15 tires with a late 2023 date code. Up front, the hood is adorned with a central scoop and hood pins, both hinting at what could be lurking below. If you look closely, you can read \"three deuces\" in dark red decals on the scoop while the 302 emblem still resides on the fenders and another on the rear bumper. While we\'re back here, we take note of the blue dot tail lights and angle cut dual exhaust tips. Overall paint and trim are very nice. Imperfections include a corrected chip on the passenger door, gap issues with the hood, corrected chips on the hood, orange peel on the left headlight surround, various other chips, scratches, paint runs, as well as rock chips on the front apron. There are a few minor scratches on the bumper.
Interior
Red door panels, in deluxe configuration, are in great shape and each features a ribbed insert and courtesy light. Inside, red bucket seats are augmented by the wild Mustang herd stamped into the saddle trim piece and this also appears on the rear 2+2 seats. Other than a small hole in the grain vinyl of the driver\'s seat, all present in clean condition. The wood rimmed steering wheel matches the instrument cluster faceplate where a combination of stock and aftermarket gauges appear, joined by an added triple pod under the dash. Along with the dash pad and wood faced glove box, it\'s all in nice condition, a grade that continues to the center console where the white knobbed shifter rises to the task at hand and cupholders have been added for that modern touch. Our red carpet below is in fine shape and includes Mustang branded mats, while the trunk houses the battery box, a vinyl floor covering, and the red tonneau for the soft top.
Drivetrain
The bay is a fantastic showcase for the modified engine and includes lots of chrome and polished pieces including ceramic coated headers and finned Cobra valve covers. It\'s a 302ci V8, bored .030 over, balanced and blueprinted with a HiPo spec cam and three 2-barrel carburetors on a Ford intake. There\'s a high volume oil pump, an electric fuel pump, aluminum radiator with electric fans, and lots of hi-po internal parts. It\'s mated to a T5 5-speed manual transmission with a Ram clutch sending power to a Ford 9\" in back with 3.50 gears and Equalock.
Undercarriage
More functional than showy, the underside includes 2.5\" dual exhaust through Xlerator mufflers, rack and pinion steering, power disc brakes up front, and power drums in back. Suspension includes coil springs in front with leaf springs in back. The knuckles and pans are clean.
Drive-Ability
You\'d never know this example started life as an inline 6 with a one barrel carburetor! She fires up with a healthy roar and rolls out onto the loop where it exhibits a strong running drivetrain and good acceleration. Shifts are crisp, braking is on point, and tracking is straight as an arrow. All functions on board, including the AM/FM/Cassette/CD radio, all work as they should and it\'s back to the stable for this red stallion. While Classic Auto Mall represents that these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of your purchase.
It\'s hard to find any fault with this car. We\'ll keep it short here. If you\'re in the market for an attractive and well built \'66 drop top, gallop over to the phone and give our car specialists a call!
