Ford Mustang 1965
General description :
Description
A cool color, V8 power, and the right upgrades (including a five-speed,) all come together to give this 1965 Ford Mustang an appealing total package. And as you look at all the details, it really shows off a classic made for driving.
Mustangs look great in a dark green. After all, we can't help but think of Steve McQueen's Bullitt. And the upgraded torque thrust wheels really add to the legendary look, too. There's even a well-done shine from the bright chrome bumpers and upgraded crystal-clear headlights. So while all first-year Mustang coupes are iconic, this one has a something a little special and sporty about it...and that's a feeling you get when you look at the rest of the car, too.
The interior has the nice look with a hint of premium. After all, the deep black has some dark wood-like accents. And the fundaments look right from the rear bench to the trunk mat. Plus, this is set up to be a more comfortable cruiser with upgrades like an AM/FM/CD stereo with USB input and R134a air conditioning (likely will need a recharge or servicing to blow cold again.) And this has a terrific driver's setup with period-correct pieces like bucket seats and GT-style round gauges. This is joined by upgrades like a wood-rimmed sports steering wheel, auxiliary gauge trio, and a large SunPro tach mounted on steering column.
Under the hood is Ford's legendary 289 cubic-inch V8. It looks good with nice wires, hoses, and even an upgraded aluminum radiator. The bracer bar and Mickey Thompson valve covers give this a sporty look. And that's backed up be added power. The V8 inhales deeply with a Holley four-barrel carburetor, and it exhales with added power and authority as long tube headers feed the dual exhaust. Not only do you have enhanced V8 power, but you get to harness it better thanks to a five-speed manual transmission upgrade. Plus, features like front disc brakes, a rear sway bar, and the grip of modern tires all makes this a better driver, too.
A cool hint of Bullitt style and a nice bit of extra power to hit the streets...this Mustang offers the right combo you want, and it's ready right now. It won't wait for long, so 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.
