Because it's fun and it gets your attention. After all, this is Las Vegas. What more could you expect? Let's be clear, the models pictured with the vehicles are paid for the express purpose of showing off and presenting the vehicles. They are not included with the sale of the vehicles or available to go with them at any point during the presentation online. In other words, Models Not Included But included with this sale, the winning bidder that does complete the transaction will receive all digital photographs of the vehicle and the models if they want them. If you want to make a deal, pick up the phone and talk your serious offer. 702-353-7500 Before you send me that awful question, "what's your reserve or bottom line", let's take a moment to explain market values and how to get a deal on eBay. There isn't any "Book Value" from the Kelly Blue Book or NADA Guide on a car like this. Figures both selling and buying for cars like this are subjective in nature and the only number that counts, if you are the seller, is the one from a serious buyer that makes you an offer. Over 28 years in the business, dealers like myself, buy and sell by looking at what it must have taken to build a car like this and take a rough guess as to what someone might buy it for. Do I have an asking price, sure if you want to hear me shoot at the moon, but that number will have nothing to do with what you may offer whether that's higher or lower. That is why we sell exclusively on eBay and at other reputable auctions. The numbers or offers come from the buyers that are serious and just like me, make their own minds up as to what they are willing to spend. We are here to sell cars. With thirteen years exclusively on eBay and perfect feedback, it's obvious we do. How? Well, that's easy too. Real buyers with serious offers in mind call us. They almost always want to talk to the person in charge; that's me. I want to talk to you too and help you own this awesome vehicle. It keeps me in business. So, if you want a fantastic vehicle like you see here, one that is far above the average in condition, serviced and documented like this, simply call. Asking through email for my bottom line? Well, I just think you're not too serious or willing to make an offer; makes it a waste of my time and yours. If you just want to know what the market value is, do what we do, look at Kelly Blue Book and NADA Guide and other online sources. Does that mean we always hope to get exactly book value, above or below? That's a loaded question. Depends on the rarity, miles and condition. Most important though, since you "are" a serious and capable buyer, call me and let's talk. I don't wear a Plaid Coat, I don't talk really fast and I am the guy in charge, the owner, enthusiast and purveyor of some of the finest cars on the internet...not to mention the best thorough presentations. Let's make a deal...Call me Doug 1965 Ford Mustang A-Code Fastback Pro-Touring VIN: 5R09A174245 Showing on Odometer: 47,926 (exempt) Engine: 302 cubic inch Pro-built engine Transmission: 5-Speed Manual Exterior: Poppy Red Interior: Parchment Over 186 high resolution pictures below.

Most of the time when I go out hunting for Fastback Mustangs, I walk away disappointed at the sheer lack of quality cars. Mustangs are one of my favorite cars out there. We have built many, have several in the build process right now and occasionally I will stumble upon one to buy that needs very little to complete. When that happens, I do get excited about quality cars and their owners history with them and even more excited when they are built right and show the quality top to bottom like this one does. The story behind this Fastback was rare in itself. ONE FAMILY OWNERSHIP. The owner I bought it from was a seventy year old man and this car was bought by his mother back in 1965 brand new off the showroom floor. He had quite the history with this car. Not just with his mother owning it but also when he finally got the car from his mother, it became his dream to really build a show car that he could enjoy, drive to the shows, use it anytime he liked and enjoy modern amenities. Building it to perform was his first priority and making it look this good was obviously just as important. Finishing to the level you see now was our furthering his dream. Get ready to see a great car, solid no wreck, no rust, no history of damage and modern upgrades that set this "Stang" apart from the rest. Read, view and pour over hundreds of pictures. We don't hide anything and we have years of satisfied clients as you can see in our feedback. This is not an average restoration or build, it is a high quality, high end pro-touring road ready Mustang Fastback A-Code. The quality of this build can be seen up close and appreciated and we show that in our pictures, details and disclosure so you can feel confident in making an offer that can buy this car. If you want this car like I did when I saw it, then make it rain $100s and watch how excited I get to see you win and own this car. That is what I am about. People ask me all the time, "have you ever wanted to keep one?" Of course I have, like this one, but I love selling dreams and seeing people reach them. I get them, drive them, show them, meet great new friends with them and get to have all the beautiful models pose with them for a permanent record of my fabulous collection of thousands of cars over the last 13 years. You get to do the same if you want...or just sit there and wait until someone else calls me and makes an offer that buys your dream. Nah! Pick up the phone to make your deal with me, you won't get figures any other way unless you bid and hit the reserve. Good Luck and talk to you soon. Extreme Quality restored, high-end pro-touring 1965 Ford Mustang A-code Fastback. Full professional build 302 with headers and a throaty exhaust. Steel hood with Secure Mount Scoop and 17-Inch Cobra wheels wrapped with brand new General Gmax 245/40ZR17 high performance rubber. Spectacular body and paint, stunning exterior bright work and new interior, custom cluster with a 5 speed transmission. . . . Complete New interior with highend Recaro Style adjustable highback Pony Mustang front seats with matching console and full Pony Interior in Parchment . . . not too many Mustangs look this good out there do they? GT equipment, hood scoop and a straight body define the classic shape and design goals of this rare quality, pro-touring diamond. Acceleration is strong, the transmission shifts perfectly and the car corners and handles like a dream . . . Dialed in stance is muscle car perfect from any position and exhaust tip cut matching GT rear valance looks deadly serious. Mechanically and cosmetically this car is ready for the shows. In fact, last week we took it to one and it was swarmed on by Mustang lovers. Lights, wipers and HVAC all function smooth and new. Exterior trim is clean with no pitting and all lenses are bright and clear. Rubber seals are new too. On the lighter side of Pro-touring, simply said, the car has so many modern features it qualities for that title but we also can see that title on quarter million dollar builds too. Needless to say, this build keeps that nostalgic look and even gets onlookers at the shows to ask, "did Ford have seats like that back in 1965?" It looks good enough to have been like that but there is more modern in this car than originality. This is the kind of quality that begs you to drive it every day if you want. That 5-speed transmission looks like the factory put it in that console...quality again abounds. Brand New interior with matching door panels, arm rests and Air Conditioning finish this spectacular interior. The modern air conditioning blows ice cold through the under dash unit. Autometer analog cluster with new interior lighting, AM/FM stereo with front speakers and the side pillar mounted gauges look outstanding for sure.

A note from the owner. I am a “used car dealer” but before that, I’m an automobile enthusiast. I love original rare and high quality modified vintage cars and over the past decade I’ve been in business, have come to appreciate an expanding selection of high-demand, high value vehicles. I specialize in and am always on the lookout for cars and trucks that were cherished by their previous owners. I have an experienced eye for quality but I’ve discovered that my preferred buyer can instantly discern such a vehicle and I have therefore, built my business and reputation around finding these kinds of cars for this type of customer. Super low miles and/or gentle ownership are strict requirements but a car must do something for me on a personal level if there is any hope of convincing you, the bidder, that this is an above average, exceptional vehicle. If nothing about the car excites me, it probably won’t do much for you either and I would soon be out of business. With just four employees and no sales people, I realize how unusual a “dealership” like mine may at first glance appear. It has taken great care and effort to create such an organization and often, an unusually high investment in a particular car we are about to list. To sell the best it is critical to have a trusted expert in my corner and Chris, owner of A-Best Auto Repair in Henderson, Nevada has my back. He and his crew can fix anything; from a low budget beater to the absolute most expensive exotic you can name, no job is too big and no small detail unimportant. They do an exhaustive 130 point inspection on each and every vehicle and nothing escapes their methodical investigation. Experience has shown that everything I spend making a car truly “right” will come back to me not only with a higher selling price, but a happy customer that says good things about me. Moreover; it allows my writer to describe the car with ease and confidence, something that simply is not possible unless he thinks it is true. If major issues are found or the cost of fixing the car the way it should be makes it too expensive to sell, my choice is an easy one. I simply absorb a few hundred dollars loss for my trouble and sell it at auction. After the vehicle is fully sorted it arrives at our facility where it encounters the suspicious eye of Tom, my writer that creates the presentations you see on eBay. He believes absolutely nothing I or anyone else tells him about the car as he combs over every inch, researches its history and documents originality and authenticity. Historical significance, rarity, special features, possible modifications and much more are used to accurately describe the vehicle with integrity and honesty. Most important for the potential buyer are the 100 to 150 high resolution pictures that I take myself. The pricey equipment I use would be right at home in the hands of the very best professional photographers and I’ve developed a logical format that walks you around the entire vehicle with close-up shots of every square inch. I provide detailed views of the interior, under the hood and then put it on a lift to show the undercarriage and confirm that the beauty of the car you are considering is not merely skin deep. Even our detailers are enthusiastic about the cars they so meticulously clean. This reconditioning can sometimes take several days and I’ve converted a paint booth, especially prepared for the professional clay bar and polishing each car lovingly receives. Usually, I’ll also include a high definition video that shows the car doing its thing. If it’s a fast car, we film it going fast. If it’s a 4x4 you’ll see it crawling up a hill. In every case you will hear things like a rumbling exhaust, working sound system and watch the temperature fall on a digital, laser thermometer pointed at an air conditioning vent. How many “dealers” will video a Lotus Esprit doing a buck-eighty? We do. No “dealer,” on-line or in the real world, takes it to this level. No other seller or organization provides you, the buyer, with so much information. I do this because it is the only way I can convince a person; often a world away, unable to touch or feel their purchase, that my vehicle is for real and what I say is the truth. All the above is necessary for me to stay in business while keeping integrity intact. I want every buyer to be happy and I need glowing feedback on eBay. To accomplish that I need satisfied customers that are as thrilled with their purchase as I was when I bought it. If you have any questions at all, please call me on my cell at: 702-353-7500. If your inquiry is sincere and your offer serious, you’ll find me the most accommodating business partner you’ve ever dealt with. If you call or e-mail asking for my reserve or “what is my bottom line” I will be looking for ways to politely end the conversation. Until you are ready to actually pull the trigger, I will happily quote you the absolute highest nationally advertised suggested retail price I can find – a number we both know will not buy the car so, don’t waste your time, or mine. I am after all, a “used car dealer.” Serious buyers know the maximum they can offer. I then must simply decide if I can sell for that number. If you hit the reserve, the decision is no longer mine. I must sell at that number. OFFERS GET MY ATTENTION: 702-353-7500 or Doug@vivalasvegasautos.com If you want to make a deal, pick up the phone and talk a serious offer. 702-353-7500 I don't respond to emails asking for "bottom line, sale price, reserve, or Buy-it-Now" figures on top line cars. THE ONLY WAY YOU GET THOSE FIGURES IS TO CALL ME! The book values posted below are relevant to "real" selling figures. NADA & KBB wouldn't be in business if they posted nonsense. But they only account for averages around the nation. If this car is less than or better than average, bid or offer accordingly.
