Ford Mustang Convertible 347 V8 1966

Allmän beskrivning : Not only does this 1966 Ford Mustang convertible have an electric-level blue paint, but it also has electric-level performance, too. That means a dyno-tested 475+ hp V8, an upgraded five-speed transmission to control it all, four-wheel disc brakes. It all makes for one impressive pony that took years to get right.
This car was a labor of love. The consignor had the vehicle for over a decade, and he says this full build took four years to complete. So while it keeps the classic first-gen Mustang lines, it also wants to make sure no one mistakes it for a stock car. So the blue paint has the obvious look of a modern color with a more recent and quality application. Nice body panels, complete badging, the correct grille, and bright chrome bumpers take care of the classic fundamentals. But what also catches your eye is more added sporty style. The exhaust tips are so big and bright that they almost look like part of the bumper. There's a nice set of competition-style Torq Thrust wheels, and the extra meaty rear tires really show off where the power meets the pavement. And if you look closely, the special motor badge on the front hints at some serious added power within (more on that in a moment.)
The clean black roof has a smart look against the bright blue exterior paint, and so when you take it down, it's nice to see a full black interior. The dash, seats, and carpeting all have an excellent presentation for a solid investment. And the upgraded AM/FM digital tuner w/cassette means upgraded driving music. While that's great for everyone, there are a ton of great upgrades just for the driver. The factory gauge panel now has crisp AutoMeter Phantom readouts, they added a large AutoMeter Sport-Comp tach, and you'll love the grip of the Hurst T-handle shifter. Plus, the roll bar adds strength to the chassis, and its exterior-matching blue is another stylish way this one announces it's something special.
The big shine coming from the engine bay signals a solid investment in the powerhouse. Remember the callouts on the fender? This is a 302 cubic-inch V8 stroked to 347ci total. It's a full performance build done by Pro-Formance Unlimited, and so the motor is enhanced and fortified with Edelbrock E-Street heads, an Edelbrock four-barrel carburetor, Edelbrock air gap aluminum intake, and Dougs headers that feed the rumbling dual exhaust with Flowmaster mufflers. You'll also spot the right supporting pieces, such as an MSD ignition and an aluminum radiator with electric fan. It's a terrific powerhouse and we have the dyno sheet showing it makes 479 horsepower! You take full control over this powerful pony with the upgraded five-speed manual transmission. This feeds a strong Currie 9-inch rear. And as you look underneath, you'll spot worthwhile investments like added frame bracing, newer bushings, and four-wheel power disc brakes.
The sale comes complete with the build receipts, dyno sheet, and restoration photos. This is the speedy custom Mustang that's built for those who really want to drive. Since that's most of us, you need to hurry to grab this all-around terrific pony. Call today!!!

om Ford
Ford, som grundades 1902, har utan tvekan förändrat historien om bilvärlden mer än någon annan biltillverkare genom att införa de första folkbilen Modell T 1908. De hade producerat mer än 15 miljoner bilar i slutet av produktionen 1927, genom vilket T hade blivit föråldrade.

Ford lanserade den första lågpris V8-motor driven bil 1932. 1932 V8 var en omedelbar hit med överlägsen hantering och prestanda för många betydligt mer expansiva bilar av dagen. Inte undra på 32 V8 Ford har blivit en sådan favorit bland heta rodders runt om i världen med 32 Deuce Coupe som sin ikon.

Efter kriget Ford bilar i USA blev större och flashier tillsammans med sina konkurrenter. I 60: s Ford var tillbaka i förgrunden igen när man inför deras kommersiella hit Mustang 1964. Mustang var så populär tävlingen var tvungen att följa Fords exempel och ponycar fenomenet tog över USA. Under åren ponnyer växte några muskler tills oljekrisen döda äntligen dödat dem.

På sextiotalet rusade Ford i internationell motorsport scenen med en raseri. Efter misslyckade Ferrari övertagande, då Enzo Ferrari hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede, vände Ford till Lola i Storbritannien för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som absolut slog Ferrari i Le Mans 24 flera gånger.

I Europa införde Ford några av de mest episka race och rallybilar av 60-talet som bygger på ödmjuka familj sedaner; Cortina GT, Lotus Cortina, Escort Twin Cam, och Escort 1600RS med de ikoniska Cosworth BDA motorer.
