Up for auction is the newly restored 1956 mustang. The restoration of this car was finished in July of 2014. this car is a factory 289 V8 car with factory 5 lug wheels The engine and its components are date coded 1965. In the later years ford did not use the vin numbers to identify engines , transmission or rear axles. Unlike chevy or dodge. But this car is date coded 1965. This car runs and drives excellent it goes down the road straight everything works as it should light,heater, wipers, horns, the doors, hood, trunk all open and close as they should .

I do not have the the paper work proving the work done but I can provide the contact info of the last owner who spent $1600 on the engine. So here is the info he gave me on this. Hot tanked, new soft plugs, new pistons .040 over on the cylinder bores, crank is .010 and .010 under the heads have hard seats for unleaded fuel, new oil pump, re-sized rods, balanced, new water pump,starter, alternator, rebuilt 2 barrel carburetor and distributor, new exhaust manifolds, The transmission has new seals and bearings, resurfaced fly wheel and clutch, all new clutch linkage, throw out bearing, pilot bushing. This is a three speed transmission less than 1000 miles since rebuild. Interior. New floor sound deadening pad, fire wall insulation pad, door panels, carpet, headliner, rear package tray, glove box, door sill plates, rear seat belts, “it never had them in the rear” interment cluster bezel, the dash pad is perfect no warping or cracks. Wiring. The engine harness and head light harness are new, New ignition switch, turn-signal switch and heater switch. This car was restored back to original specs. This is a factory white car three speed manual transmission 289V8 with no power steering no power brakes. It is a bit of a 50 year old survivor as it retains its original running gear. It has no evidence of any damage due to collision or wrecks. I am the 4 th owner. It is registered and tilted in my name. Over all I would rate this car as a 8 on a 1 to 10 Rating the paint has been cut with 2000 grit and buffed 95% of the imperfections have been removed the finish reflects well and is real shinny. This is often hard to achieve with white. The body has a few slight imperfections that got by the painter but nothing major or real noticeable you would see them more if the car was painted black . This car was restored as a driver car one that could be used. For local car shows and the price of under 11k reflects that.
