Ford Mustang 302 V8 1965
General description :
NICE 2+2, 302 V8, 4 SPD, FRNT PWR DISCS, PONY INTERIOR, SOLID, FUN, CLEAN!
There's a hierarchy when it comes to 1965 Ford Mustang bodies, and the 2+2 is king. This was inaugural year for the highly sought after fastback, so we really get excited to see one that has all the right features like a larger 302 V8, four-speed stick, and the desirable Pony interior.
Crisp lines, great detailing, and sporty sheetmetal make this one timeless. Bright red is always a great choice on a Mustang for highlighting the fastback's dramatic long hood/short deck design. Plus, these always had the best profiles with the race-ready rear window slats. Workmanship is excellent, and you'll probably find that no panel was overlooked when this one was being refinished. It even has some nice upgrades with the GT-style exhaust coming through the rear valance. Plus, those iconic torque thrust style alloys are staggered 15/17-inches front/rear to give this fastback and extra aggressive stance.
If you thought the exterior had a great intimidation factor, just wait until you check out the inside. There's nothing better on a classic red sports car than a deep black interior. Plus, this one has the special "Pony" package, which adds a touch of class with horses running wild on the seatbacks. But more than just look great this is a true driver's classic. That's why your left hand grips the upgraded Lecarra sports steering wheel, and your right one will love the custom shit knob. While this also has a great Clarion AM/FM/CD stereo, we really know your favorite soundtrack will be from the growl this pony produces.
When you pop the hood, Mustang fans will instantly get excited about the motor. The larger 302 cubic-inch V8 wasn't available until later years, but this first-year fastback couldn't resist the upgrade to go with its speedy image. This V8 looks right at home with its proper air topper and decal. Beneath that, features like the Holley-built Motorcraft four-barrel carburetor, fined valve covers, Cobra intake, and long tube headers add extra performance to an already impressive package. Best of all, you are in complete control of this enhanced V8 and the dual exhaust's booming soundtrack thanks to the four-speed manual transmission. Not only have there been upgrades for speed, but also it has been upgraded for control. It now includes front disc brakes and the grip of modern ZR-rated tires for enhanced all-around performance.
A rare and speedy red fastback that has the enhanced V8 to back up its appearance. A turnkey package like this will always be in short supply and high demand, so you better hurry if you want to make it yours. Call now!!

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
