Ford Mustang 289 CID V8 3-Speed Manual $39,995 1965
General description :
Our St. Louis showroom is proud to present this beautiful 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback. In 1965 as this Mustang was first hitting the roads, "I Can't Help Myself" by the Four Tops was airing on the radio as "The Sound of Music" was playing in theatres. This American muscle car takes you right back to those times. The car is a California C-Code car that started life at the San Jose plant in 1964. It is painted a vibrant Poppy Red which is best described as a bright orange color. The GT350 styled 18” Weld RT-S wheels and new Sumitomo tires really set the car off nicely. Under the hood you’ll find a 289 CID V8, 4 barrel carb and a new battery. The owner has recently invested some money in the vehicle to make sure everything works as intended. It is showing 97,645 on the odometer but it is undocumented if this is actual mileage. Sitting on the vinyl seats inside the gorgeous white interior, you’ll notice seat belts, AM/FM radio and that awesome view that you only get from a classic Mustang. You won’t want to get out of the car once you’ve shifted through the 3-speed manual transmission and heard that sweet rumble of the V8! You will be pleased to know that the heat, courtesy lights, wipers, brake lights, gauges and all exterior lights work as they should. Even the glass on this car is in good shape. Don’t miss this opportunity to own this excellent example. Avoid the hassle and unsightly cost of a timely restoration and pursue a car that is turn-key ready.

About Ford
Ford, founded in 1902, has arguably changed the history of automotive world more than any other car manufacturer by introducing the first people's car Model T in 1908. They had produced more than 15 million cars by the end of the production in 1927, by which T had become obsolete.Ford launched the first low priced V8 engine powered car in 1932. 1932 V8 was an instant hit with superior handling and performance to many far more expansive cars of the day. No wonder 32 V8 Ford has become such a favourite among hot rodders around the world with 32 Deuce coupe as their icon.
During the war Ford completely shut down civilian vehicle production to dedicate all its resources to the Allied war efforts (1942-45) They used to build B-24 bombers, aircraft engines, jeeps, M-4 tanks, military trucks and Bren-gun carriers and more than 30,000 super-charged Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 engines for Mosquito and Lancaster bombers as well as P-51 Mustang fighters. After the war Ford cars in the USA got bigger and flashier along with their competitors. In the 60's Ford was back in the forefront again when introducing their commercial hit Mustang in 1964. Mustang was so popular the competition had to follow Ford's example and the ponycar phenomenon took over the US. Over the years the ponies grew some muscles until the oil crisis kill finally killed them off.
In the sixties Ford rushed into international motor sports scene with a fury. After unsuccessful Ferrari takeover, when Enzo Ferrari had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury, Ford turned to Lola in UK to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that absolutely beat Ferrari in Le Mans 24 numerous times.
In Europe, Ford introduced some of the most epic race and rally cars of the 60's based on humble family sedans; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, and Escort 1600RS with the iconic Cosworth BDA engines.
Today classic Fords are extremely popular with enthusiasts and a great selection of classic Fords can be found for sale at www.ClassicDigest.com
