1965 Ford Mustang Description

Here is your chance to own one of the rarest and most historically significant Mustangs of all time!

This very special vehicle was used on the Ford Motor Company's Magic Skyway at the New York World's Fair during the 1965 season. Ford Motor Company used the Magic Skyway as a way to showcase its complete line of Ford products. This car comes complete with a valid Michigan title and internal Ford correspondence documenting its unique provenance.

The New York World's Fair ran for two summer seasons during 1964 and 1965. This car was used during the 1965 season. In 1965 there were 3 black, 3 white, 3 red and 2 blue Mustangs used. When the Fair ended in October of 1965 this car was sent back to Carron and Company in Inkster, MI to be cleaned up. It was then sent to the Ford resale, "B" lot in Dearborn where it was eventually sold to a Ford employee who worked at the Research and Engineering Center. He drove this car to work for many years before finally retiring it 1979. It has sat inside since then.Unfortunately, the harsh Michigan winters have taken its toll on the car; it will need a COMPLETE restoration due to extensive rust.

Magic Skyway ride cars are extremely rare. There were only 23 Mustangs ever used on the Magic Skyway over the two seasons.Currently, only four of these Mustangs are known to exist; this car is one of those four.

This is the first time that a Magic Skyway Mustang has been publicly offered for sale. This is a very unique opportunity if you are looking for one of the rarest of all Mustangs. When completed, this car will draw crowds at any Mustang or classic car event that you take it to.
