Classic vintage Mustang coupe 302 5 speed manual
1965 Ford Mustang Description
A 1965 Ford Mustang with upgraded 302 V8 power and a five-speed means you get the classic first-ever pony car look you love but now with more power and better control.
We all love the first-year Mustangs because they launched the icon, and this one wearing the distinct Silver Smoke gray provides immediate attraction. It's the factory-correct color, but it has a glowing shine that only comes from a good modern clearcoat respray. The look of quality also comes from good gaps and body lines that deliver the kind of crisp presentation you want of a well-done classic. And that goes double for all the brightwork, too. Plus, the competition-style American Racing Torq Thrust wheels have a gray look that goes with the car's paint and the extra sporty package under the hood.
Black always is a great color to go with silver, and this is especially nice with the seats, door panels, headliner and carpeting shows this has been given a solid investment. But this full dark side interior is broken up by brightwork in all the right places, including the desirable center console. This is the kind of car that gets the details right. You see it in classic pieces like the working courtesy lights, to well integrated upgrades like retro-style AM/FM radio with aux input. Plus, the white-faced look of the upgraded MP Performance gauge package really shows this is a driver's classic. There's not only a large speedo, but also a tach that goes quite handy with the extra gear on the Hurst shifter.
The engine bay is stuffed with more power than you could get in '65. Ford's 302 cubic-inch looks terrific in the engine bay with a boldly repainted block, polished Ford Racing valve covers, tidy Ford Racing plus wires, and a shining air topper announcing the added displacement. More than just a bigger motor, this also has a hydraulic roller cam, electronic ignition, Edelbrock aluminum intake, and topped with a Holley four-barrel carburetor. Shorty headers add power while also adding rumble to the Flowmaster dual exhaust. The upgraded Borg/Warner five-speed manual transmission means you have another gear and better ratios to take full advantage of the power. It's a true classic sports car that want you to feel the road, and there's even wide BF Goodrich T/As.
This is the powerful and well-presented pony car that's offered for a great price. Don't miss out on this deal, call today!
