The original dual redline spare is still in the trunk and has never been used. It still has the nipples on the tire. Original spare tire tools. Interior- The interior on this car is amazing. Everything is original except the carpet, dash console door and sill plates. The seats, dash, door panels, head liner, gauges, steering wheel all are about as perfect as they can be.

The radio and speakers have been updated. Nothing was cut. It is a direct fit and the original a.m. radio is included. Since it has been in the same family for 48 years, this mustang has been very well taken care of and very well maintained. It drives great. Its super smooth driving around town or cruising 70-80 mph down the interstate. Brakes, clutch, all work great and the engine pulls and sounds like only a 289 can. Its really one of the best driving classic cars I've ever had. Its simply a blast to drive. I think the pictures, description, and details show how good this car is but please call or email with any specific questions.
