Here's an American classic in a distinct and well-coordinated total package, and it even includes V8 power. So this one offers you far more than just an iconic 1966 Ford Mustang at an affordable price.
Red and black Mustangs are great, but there's something distinguishing about Springtime Yellow. It's one of those '66 factory colors you love to see simply because it's always a standout. Plus, this factory-correct hue is the perfect color to really highlight the contrasting black vinyl roof. But more than just great paint, take a look at the overall execution. The bumpers have a mirror shine; the glass is complete and clear; and the styled steel wheels still look fantastic. It tells you that this is a respected classic that reminds us all of the days when Mustangs were instantly cherished because they were the dream car within the public's grasp.
The black roof was a sign of premium distinction in the '60s, and it only gets better when it's also a preview of the interior color. The black bucket seats, door panels, headliner, and dash pad all have the feeling of freshness that suggests a nice investment. There's even an upgraded center console with comfortable arm rest and cup holders. But this is far from a sea of darkness. All your favorite pieces have plenty of shine like the classic sports steering wheel, heat/defrost controls, and the correct round five-gauge full readout panel. In fact, you'll love how authentic this one is right down to the AM radio that's still cranking out the tunes.
There's even more distinction when you open the hood. The shining valve covers, matching air topper, and Ford's blue block are all easily seen thanks to a very tidy setup. Not only is this a nice sign of good maintenance, but also as you look at the clean undercarriage photos, you'll see that there have been investments in the suspension, exhaust, gas tank, and other essential places. And because this tells you that this Mustang would make a fantastic cruiser, you'll also be happy to know you have easy driving features like power steering a three-speed automatic transmission.
An American legend with its factory-correct colors inside and out. This Mustang is iconic, distinctive, and not going to wait long at this value price. Call today!!!

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.
