1965 Ford Mustang FASTBACK, deluxe Description

Please take time to WATCH the Test Drive VIDEO .... click 1st picture below.

ONLY 2,000 miles since restoration

Restored in 2005 by a former owner with the goal of showing it in "CONCOURS" class competition. Some 12 years later it has only been driven 2,000 miles and it remains visually stunning with very little evidence of wear, inside or out. The restoration was top to bottom resulting in a car that car looks much like it would have if you went back in time and drove it off the "show room floor" in 1965. Of course the paint is much nicer than when new.

I was told the odometer was set to ZERO when the restoration was finished. It has since traveled 2,000 very GENTLE miles. While not a perfect car (they where far from perfect when new) it is a serious "show quality" car that can be shown and potentially WIN at any level show.

OPTIONS, OPTIONS & "more" OPTIONS

This is a option "loaded" 1965 fastback in one of the most sought after 1965 COLOR COMBOS ...... Poppy Red with White interior .... simply put, it is eye-popping beautiful and steals the show where ever it goes.

In the real estate world the key to value is "location, location, location" .... in the collector car world the key to value is "Options, Options, Options" ...... and this fastback has the options!

* A-code "higher horse power 289" with 4bbl Carburetor

* Correct factory style DUAL EXHAUST

Strong running 289

This car is not just a pretty face, it is also a blast to drive.It has two personalities, one being a very docile cruiser and the other being a very spirited performer that pulls like a K-code Hi-Po. I am not sure why but it is a very happy little 289 that likes to rev.

All the mechanical components on this car appear to have been restored (from the carburetor to the rear transaxle). In my test drives I noted that everything was working and the car did not run hot or exhibit any bad habits. The only negative is the typical fluid leaks you get on these 50 plus year old Mustangs when they set too much. It otherwise starts easily, idles good, runs strong and drives much like you would expect a restored 1965 to drive. The tires, are bias-ply and ride like bias-ply tires do. I prefer radials but people that "like showing these cars" tend to prefer the original style tire which is what these are. The tires while appearing like new with only 2,000 miles are most likely 12 years old and should be considered for show use only.

The power steering, power brakes and AC provide a lot of comfort and ease.

Fun and a great Investment

This jewel is the tri-fecta of early Mustang collectability (very desirable model / lots of desirable options / in excellent restored condition), not to mention extreme eye appeal. In the world of collectable Mustangs it does not get much better than this.

Terms & Conditions of this sell & all legal stuff

Although my eBay experiences have been very positive, I am aware that much goes on within the eBay community that is not positive and therefore requires direct language.

Do NOT make a bid or offer until you read everything below.

Any bid or offer is a legal acknowledgement and agreement on your part to be bound by the Terms and Conditions put forth below and additionally specified within eBay itself.

Have FUNDS ready PRIOR to bidding or making an offer. Full payment must be received within five (7) business days of the end of auction/sale unless I agree in writing to alternative terms.

WIRE TRANSFER IS PREFERRED for US buyers and required for all buyers "outside" the United States.

Cashier's check, direct deposit or cash in person are acceptable but in ALL cases this vehicle and its title will NOT be released until complete payment is received and all funds have irrevocably cleared BOTH Banks. If paying by Bank Cashiers Check, I must receive a copy of any Bank Cashiers Check in ADVANCE along with your "internal bank contact information" for confirmation of your Bank Check by my Bank. Bank Cashiers checks MUST BE classified by my bank as having irrevocably cleared both Banks prior to my release of vehicle and title.

Loan checks must be agreed to by me PRIOR to you making a bid or offer. Money Orders are NOT accepted.

I have an agency relationship with a Licensed Texas Dealer and all cars will be sold through this Dealer. Texas buyers will have to pay Texas sales tax and license/registration fees. Out of state buyers are responsible for taxes in their own states.

This is a very nice vehicle. However, there is no such thing as a "PERFECT" vehicle...especially when dealing with vintage vehicles. This is not a new vehicle; it is decades old. Even a restored or partially restored vehicle can and will have flaws and normal wear and tear congruent to its age and/or mileage. This vehicle may have minor dings, scratches (or, other imperfections) and indications of wear and use because it has been used.

Arranging for an independent third-party inspection is a great way to validate a seller's claims about a vehicle's condition. There are many companies and individuals who offer such a service. These services are listed on the Internet and can be found in most collector car magazine publications. Of course your personal inspection and scrutiny are suggested and most welcomed. Any and all inspections must occur PRIOR to the end of this eBay listing.

The Seller does not expressly, or implicitly, guarantee the accuracy of the description including authenticity or genuineness of the vehicle and/or its components and assumes no responsibility for any repairs or defects regardless of any oral or written statements about the vehicle. No allowance or set aside will be made on account of any incorrectness, imperfection, defect or damage.
