A new Ponycar has arrived at MotoeXotica Classic Cars and it is gorgeous from the ground up. Assembled in Ford’s Dearborn, Michigan factory on July 19, 1965, this example was delivered to the Memphis, Tennessee region before moving to California, where it received a ground-up restoration approximately 1,000 miles ago. The car was later imported to Canada about three years ago and the previous owner bought it in 2016.
Dressed in desirable Rangoon Red with white stripes, this car’s paint and trim are in overall excellent, show-winning condition. This pony’s windows are clear and crack-free while the car’s lights, including the fog lights, are intact and haze-free. It rolls on BFGoodrich Radial T/A radials, P225/60R15 in front and P245/60R15 in rear. Each tire is wrapped around a five-spoke Torque Thrust wheel with a gray center. The wheels and tires and are in near-excellent condition.
The car’s bodywork is straight and solid, the chrome bumpers were refinished, look fantastic and fit well to the body. The engine bay is extremely tidy, the battery appears new and the cargo area is in excellent order, with an original-style plaid vinyl spare tire cover, full-size spare tire and floor liner. New floor panels were installed during the restoration, during which the original Poppy Red became Rangoon Red.
Under the hood is a Ford 302 CID crate V-8 engine. Induction is from a four-barrel Edelbrock carburetor and aluminum intake and the engine breathes via dual exhausts that exit through the rear valance panel. Underhood trim and upgrades include ribbed rocker covers, a chrome Monte Carlo bar and export brace, silicone hoses, a new wiring harness and period windshield washer equipment. Backing up the 302 engine is a Tremec TKO five-speed manual transmission and an eight-inch differential. The crate 302 replaces the original A-code 289 CID V-8 while the Tremec replaces the factory four-speed manual transmission. Driver convenience features include front disc brakes, a driver’s side remote-operated side view mirror, a dual-circuit brake master cylinder, rear air shock absorber and a large front sway bar.
Inside, the car’s red and white interior (code F5), is in overall excellent order. The front buckets and rear fold-down bench seats look fantastic with their red upholstery with white inserts. The red carpet underfoot is in similar excellent condition. The matching headliner presents in excellent condition, too. The Mustang has a fresh, two-tone €œPony€ interior featuringintegrated door panel arm rests and a woodgrain, three-spoke steering wheel. The instrument panel, with its full array of gauges, has matching woodgrain trim. This car came with the Rally-Pac option, a tachometer and a clock attached to the steering column. There is a full-length center console, which is home to a Hurst shifter topped by a cueball. Completing the interior is an AM radio.
The standard interior features of the 1965 Mustang included adjustable driver and passenger bucket seats, an AM radio, and a floor mounted shifter in a variety of color options. Ford added additional interior options during the 1965 model year. The Interior Decor Group was popularly known as €œPony Interior€ due to the addition of embossed running ponies on the seat fronts, and also included integral armrests, woodgrain appliqué accents and a round gauge cluster that would replace the standardFalconinstrumentation. Also available were sun visors, a (mechanical) remote-operated mirror, a floor console and a bench seat. One option designed strictly for fun was theRally-Pac. Introduced in 1963 after Ford’s success at that year’sMonte Carlo Rallyand available on other Ford and Mercury compacts and intermediates, the Rally-Pac was a combination clock and tachometer mounted to the steering column. A compass, rear seat belts, A/C and reverse lights were also optional.
Documentation includes miscellaneous restoration photos, original owner’s manual and thousands of dollars’ worth of invoices and receipts documenting the restoration process.

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
