AUCTION CAR
This 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback GT is an exceptionally rare, factory-specified example, combining the highly desirable GT Equipment Group with the 63B Interior Décor (Deluxe Pony Interior). Finished in factory Raven Black and supported by matching-numbers provenance, this Mustang represents one of the most comprehensively optioned and finest 1965 Fastbacks currently available in Australia.
A genuine A-code car rated at 225 horsepower, this Mustang retains its 289ci 4-barrel Windsor V8 paired with the Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission. Factory power steering and air conditioning further enhance drivability, making this a refined and highly usable GT without compromising originality or collector appeal.
The car was professionally converted to right-hand drive in 1997 by its second owner as part of a comprehensive restoration and has travelled just 4,567 miles since conversion. A substantial history file accompanies the vehicle, including previously judged concours results from 1999, underscoring the quality of the restoration and presentation.
The combination of factory GT specification, Deluxe Interior, extensive premium options, and a professionally executed RHD conversion places this example among the most desirable 1965 Mustangs available.
DRIVE-LINE
Power comes from the desirable A-code 225hp 289ci Windsor V8 with mild enhancements during its light rebuild / refresh in 1997, delivering smooth, flexible performance consistent with the GT brief, paired with the Cruise-O-Matic automatic transmission for effortless touring. Factory power steering and air conditioning further enhance usability and comfort, making this a refined yet engaging GT Fastback.
As a genuine factory GT, the car is equipped with GT-specific suspension including heavy-duty shock absorbers, stiffer springs, a larger sway bar, and factory front disc brakes, delivering improved handling and braking performance.
EXTERIOR
The Fastback body presents beautifully in factory Raven Black, accentuating the model’s iconic roofline and muscular proportions. As a genuine GT, the car features the correct GT grille with integrated fog lamps, GT badging and stripes, dual exhaust with quad outlets exiting through the unique GT rear valance, and original Styled Steel wheels fitted with period-correct whitewall tyres. The exterior presentation reflects careful ownership and a strong focus on factory-correct detail.
INTERIOR
Factory trimmed in the highly sought-after 63B Interior Décor Group, the cabin features Deluxe Pony embossed seating, woodgrain dashboard and console accents, unique door panels with integral armrests, courtesy lighting, a full-length centre console, and a woodgrain-finished steering wheel with chrome horn button.
GT instrumentation is complemented by the desirable Rally-Pac gauge cluster, along with the Premium Radio and Flasher option. Additional factory options include the Visibility Package, comprising a remote-control exterior mirror, day/night rear-view mirror, and two-speed windscreen wipers.
SUMMARY
A rare opportunity to acquire one of the highest-optioned and most desirable 1965 Ford Mustang GT Fastbacks in Australia. Featuring factory Raven Black paint, A-code V8 power, matching numbers, Deluxe Interior, extensive factory options, concours history, and a professionally executed RHD conversion with minimal mileage since completion, this Mustang stands as a true blue-chip collectible.
A very rare example on a global level.
