Details: | As popular today as they were back in 1966, the Ford Mustang convertible was the best selling convertible in the U.S. that year with 72,119 sold, beating the runner-up Chevrolet Impala nearly two to one. This 1966 Ford Mustang convertible was built September 29, 1965 at Fordandrsquo;s Dearborn, Michigan plant and was originally destined for Cincinnati but made its way to California sometime in the early to mid 1970andrsquo;s and has resided here ever since. Powered by the correct 289ci 2V V8 engine which has been upgraded with a Mallory distributor and coil, it produces 200 horsepower and is mated to a C4 Cruise-O-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission. Additionally, both the engine and transmission have been rebuilt, with the engine rebuilt in 1994 and the transmission rebuilt in 2015. Under the hood, the Mustang features power brakes and power steering, both of which were also rebuilt at the same time in 2015. Additionally, the convertible also received a new radiator and new starter, along with a rebuilt carburetor at that time as well. Inside, the car features a black Pony Interior consisting of wood grain appliquandeacute; dash accents and embossed running ponies on the front and rear seat fronts, and the interior has been completely redone and is in excellent shape. Outside, the car has been repainted in its original Springtime Yellow and shows well for its age with only minor imperfections, while the convertible top is free of defects. The Mustang rides on a set of Uniroyal Tiger Paw 215/70R14 tires mounted on stock wheels finished with stock hubcaps, and were installed in September of 2015 alongside the other work that was performed at that time. Overall, this 1966 Mustang Convertible is in great shape and truly needs nothing. It has been lovingly cared for by its previous owners and simply needs a new caretaker to help carry on its legacy as one of the most classic American cars of all time. |
