1965 FORD MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE

1965 Ford Mustang Convertible – Classic Open-Top

Few cars capture the essence of classic American cars like the first-generation Ford Mustang. Introduced in 1964, the Mustang redefined the pony car segment and quickly became an icon.

This 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible, a factory C Code V8 model, delivers an authentic experience of 1960s motoring with a strong, reliable drivetrain, comfortable seats and features for 4 adults with its striking red over red and cream color scheme.

Driveline:

At its heart, this Mustang is powered by the revered 289 Windsor V8, a staple of Ford’s performance heritage. With a smooth and punchy delivery, this C Code V8 engine pairs seamlessly with a C4 automatic transmission, making for a relaxed and enjoyable driving experience.

Whether cruising the coastline or taking on weekend drives, the unmistakable V8 dual exhaust soundtrack is a reminder of why the Mustang became such a legend.

Power Top and Air Cond:

This Mustang is equipped with Power Steering, enabling easy cruising and making city driving effortless. The addition of Air Conditioning ensures comfort, even on warmer days, making it a practical choice for those who appreciate both nostalgia and convenience.

A Power Convertible Roof allows for open-top motoring at the push of a lever, letting you enjoy the sun whenever you desire.

Fly down the highway with roof up and air-conditioning on, then instantly drop the power top in every town you visit.

Interior and Exterior:

Presented in a vibrant bright red exterior with a contrasting red and cream interior, this Mustang exudes classic charm.

The paintwork shines and the chrome sparkles. The white soft top further complements the color scheme, offering a striking combination that pays homage to the golden era of American convertibles.

An actual four seater to enjoy with friends or family.

White-wall tyres complete the period-correct look, reinforcing its head-turning appeal.

Condition:

This Mustang makes an impression from every angle and the early Mustangs drive with ease being so light weight.

This cars paintwork shines beautifully. There are various blemishes, bubbles, and body imperfections upon closer inspection, adding to its character as a genuine useable driver’s car and not a show pony. It will happily sit in any car show as well.

The car was driven to the showroom by the Vendor who hasn’t the time to use it anymore.

He mentioned the Air-conditioning may need ‘re-gassing’ as it doesn’t blow as cold as it previously did ( approx. $300+ for A/C re-gas).

For those who appreciate a car that’s meant to be enjoyed rather than hidden away, this example represents an exciting opportunity.

Summary:

With a very reasonable reserve price guide, this 1965 Mustang Convertible is within reach for enthusiasts looking to experience classic American motoring without breaking the bank.

Maintenance Costs are considered very low and style points are very high.

Currently on Club Registration and will be supplied with Import Approval for registration in any state.

Whether you’re looking for a weekend cruiser or classic daily, get ready to drop the top and hit the open road.
