Description : Gateway Classic Cars Dallas is proud to offer a high optioned, very original style 1966 Ford Mustang, while most have been hot-rodded, this one stands as an original. The first-generation Ford Mustangs have held onto their popularity even better than even Betty White. People were attracted to them for their style, size, performance, and price, and those same qualities still attract car enthusiasts today. It is quickly apparent that this 1966 Mustang coupe has remained on the A-list for decades with no signs of slowing down.

The Code K Nightmist Blue exterior finish provides a deep shine and gives our Ford an elegant, timeless look that will always be in demand. It can be difficult to maintain a dark color for sure but when it is applied professionally and maintained properly, what you see here is the reward. The Ford's sheet metal lines up correctly and there are no indicators of past issues, and with the work being finished within the last few years, everything still looks crisp and fresh. We always like to see Mustangs in their natural state, so the lack of stripes, scoops, spoilers, or other add-ons is a relief, but when the original design is this good, why would you want to mess with it? And while we love the Nightmist Blue paint, the white vinyl top adds an awesome bit of contrast that makes this pony stand out in a crowd.

Open the driver's door and you're greeted with a new two-tone Pony Interior. The carpeting, headliner, seating, and door panels are all there with a light blue and white combination. This Mustang is nicely outfitted with a center console, and a working AM/8-track radio, suggesting it wasn't purchased for performance reasons alone. A wood-rimmed steering wheel works well with the matching dash appliques and center console, adding a sporty look that's perfect for the Mustang's personality. The five-hole gauge panel was standard equipment in 1966 and we're guessing that the gauges inside are original.

The strong-running recently rebuilt 289 cubic inch V8 is a C-code 2-barrel unit that's smooth and torquey, the ideal partner for the automatic transmission. There is no such thing as matching numbers in 1966 Mustangs, but it is correct right down to the air cleaner and valve covers. The Ford Blue engine enamel is the right color and there are no obvious signs of trauma in this car's past. A C4 three-speed automatic transmission shifts without complaint and is backed by an 8-inch full of highway-friendly 2.80 gears. The undercarriage is finished as original, and the dual exhaust system gives it a nice V8 sound that never gets annoying. Wearing BFG radials were installed on a set of pretty styled steel wheels and are a good match that gives this pony a crisp look with an OEM vibe.


As the supply of clean, well-finished Mustangs shrinks, cars like this will become ideal places to park some money for a few years, and there's simply nothing more fun than a vintage pony with a few tricks up its sleeve. Call today! 817-310-9400 Dallas@GatewayClassiccars.com

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.

Under kriget Ford helt stänga civil bilproduktionen att ägna alla sina resurser till de allierade krigsansträngningarna (1942-1945) De används för att bygga B-24 bombplan, flygmotorer, jeepar, M-4 stridsvagnar, militära lastbilar och Bren-gun bärare och mer än 30.000 super laddade Rolls Royce Merlin V-12 motorer till Mosquito och Lancaster bombplan samt P-51 Mustang fighters. 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.

Idag klassiska Fords är mycket populär bland entusiaster och ett stort urval av klassiska Fords finns till försäljning på www.ClassicDigest.com
