1965 FORD MUSTANG FASTBACK FOR SALE IS A BEAUTIFUL VINTAGE MUSTANG FASTBACK, THIS CAR IS A RARITY IN CLASSIC MUSTANGS IN THAT IT IS LARGELY ORIGINAL AND WEARS THE MAJORITY OF ITS ORIGINAL SHEET METAL AND RUNNING GEAR. BELOW ARE SOME OF THE DETAILS THAT DESCRIBE THIS BEAUTIFUL CLASSIC MUSTANG. THIS CLASSIC HAS GONE UNDER A METICULOUS RESTORATION THAT WAS DONE ENSURING THE ORIGINALITY OF THE CAR WAS NOT LOST. THE FASTBACK WAS RESTORED IN THE EARLY 2000'S AND HAS BEEN DRIVEN SPARINGLY OVER THE PAST 12 YEARS. THE BODY HAS ONLY UNDERGONE 1 REPAINT IN ITS LIFE WITH THE CORRECT PHOENICIAN YELLOW. AS EARLY MUSTANGS GO THE LARGE MAJORITY HAVE HAD THE FLOOR PANS REPLACED AT 1 TIME, THAT IS NOT THE CASE WITH THIS VEHICLE, THE FLOOR PANS ARE ORIGINAL AND ROCK SOLID. THE FRAME RAILS INCLUDING UNDER AND BATTERY TRAY AND AT THE LEAF SPRING PERCHES ARE AGAIN ALL FOMOCO ORIGINAL. THE EXTERIOR SHEET METAL HAS AGAIN LASTED THE TEST OF TIME EXCEPTIONALLY WELL AND THEREFORE ORIGINAL DOORS, FENDERS, ROOF, WHEEL HOUSES ARE FACTORY ORIGINAL ALONG WITH THE DRIVER QUARTER PANEL, THE PASSENGER QUARTER PANEL HAS HAD THE LOWER SECTION BEHIND THE WHEEL REPLACED. THIS ROUTE WAS CHOSEN DURING RESTORATION IN AN EFFORT TO KEEP AS MUCH FACTORY METAL AS POSSIBLE. THE PAINT FINISH IS SHOWS VERY NICE WITH ONLY A FEW IMPERFECTIONS SUCH AS SMALL CHIPS AND A SCRATCH ALONG THE DRIVER REAR QUARTER EXTENSION. THE PAINT MAINTAINS VERY NICE SHINE AND I WOULD DESCRIBE IT AS A 8 OUT OF 10 BASED ON THE PERFECT BODY LINES, OVERALL SMOOTH FINISH. THE DRIVE TRAIN IS AS ORIGINAL AND SOUND AS THE BODY. THE 289 POWER PLANT HAS A DATE CODE OF 4L3, JUST 14 DAYS AHEAD OF THE NOVEMBER 21ST ASSEMBLY DATE OF THE CHASSIS, THIS IS VERY COMMON FOR THESE 1964 MUSTANGS THAT WERE PUT TOGETHER AT ON-SET OF THE AMERICAN MUSTANG CRAZE. THE ENGINE MAINTAINS ITS ORIGINAL 4 BARREL INTAKE MANIFOLD AND AUTOLITE 4100 CARBURETOR. THE WIDE RATIO TOP LOADER 4 SPEED TRANSMISSION HAS A ID OF HEH-P AGAIN THAT INDICATES ASSEMBLY IN 1964 AS IT SHOULD. THIS FASTBACK STARTS, RUNS, DRIVES, HANDLES JUST AS IT SHOULD. THEN ENGINE WAS RE-BUILT DURING THE RESTORATION BUT CARE WAS TAKEN TO MAINTAIN ALL THE DETAILS THAT ARE SO OFTEN LOST ON THESE CLASSICS. CORRECT FORD RADIATOR HOSES, CORRECT BENT STEEL FUEL FEED LINE, CORRECT A/C COMPRESSOR SUPPORT BRACKETS, EXHAUST MANIFOLD BOLT CLIPS ETC ETC, CARE WAS TAKEN TO MAKE SURE THIS CAR WAS DONE RIGHT AS WAS DESERVED FOR SUCH A RARE MUSTANG. ALONG WITH ALL THE DETAILS NOTED ABOVE THE FOLLOWING ADD TO THE APPEARANCE AND PERFORMANCE OF THIS CAR- COMPLETE FORD ORIGINAL AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM, ALL CORRECT FOMOCO BRACKETS, CORRECTLY SEALED A/C LINES, CORRECT CONDENSATE DRAIN LINE - ORIGINAL AND WORKING 6000 RPM RALLY PACK, BOTH THE CLOCK AND TACHOMETER WORK AS THEY SHOULD, IT IS RARE TO COME ACROSS SUCH A NICE ORIGINAL UNIT.- CENTER CONSOLE (CORRECT SHORT VERSION FOR A/C)- FOG LIGHTS- HEAVY DUTY SWAY BAR - QUICK RATIO STEERING BOX- FRONT DISC BRAKES, CORRECT DISTRIBUTION BLOCK, CORRECT LARGE BOWL MASTER CYLINDER- STYLED STEEL WHEELS WITH RED LINE TIRES THIS CAR WAS BUILT IN NOVEMBER 5 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE UN-VEILING OF THE "GT OPTION" BUT CARRIERS MANY OF THE GT ITEMS. THE GT STRIPE AND BADGES WERE ADDED TO FINISH OFF THE AGGRESSIVE LOOK OF THIS CLASSIC. A FINER EXAMPLE OF A CLASSIC MUSTANG WOULD BE HARD TO COME BY. THE COMBINATION OF A ROCK SOLID BODY & UNDERCARRIAGE, SOUND DRIVE TRAIN, AND A FINE GROUPING RARE OPTIONS MAKE THIS TRULY A ONE OF A KIND.
