1966 Ford MUSTANG Convertible*Matt Leinart's Personal Ride* Nice Resto-Mod!!
Description
CALLING ALL MUSTANG FANS AND FOOTBALL FANS!! UP FOR SALE PLEASE FIND HEISMAN TROPHY-WINNER MATT LEINART'S PERSONAL 1966 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE. MATT WON THE HEISMAN TROPHY IN 2004 AT THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA, AND THEN WENT ON TO PLAY FOR THE ARIZONA CARDINALS, HOUSTON TEXANS, OAKLAND RAIDERS, AND BUFFALO BILLS. HE IS NOW A BROADCASTER FOR FOX SPORTS. IF YOU HAVE AN UP AND COMING FOOTBALL PLAYER IN YOUR LIFE, THIS COULD BE A GREAT GRADUATION GIFT FOR THEM THIS SPRING!
THIS 1966 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE HAS ONLY 4,105 MILES ON IT SINCE COMPLETION. A SUPER-STRAIGHT, RUST-FREE SOUTHWESTERN BODY (ORIGINALLY FROM THE DEARBORN, MICHIGAN PLANT) WAS USED AS THE BASIS FOR THE BUILD. ALL BADGING AND EMBLEMS WERE REMOVED, THE CAR WAS TREATED TO A VERY NICE PAINT JOB, GT LIGHTS AND GAS CAP, AND A MILD CUSTOM TAN LEATHER INTERIOR WAS INSTALLED, ALONG WITH A GREAT ALPINE MULTI-MEDIA STEREO AND ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM, WHICH HAS ROCKFORD FOSGATE SPEAKERS IN THE PASSENGER AREA, AND A "KICKER" SPEAKER IN THE TRUNK. THE SOUND IS GREAT.
UNDER THE HOOD, A HIGH-PERFORMANCE 289 MOTOR GENERATING APPROXIMATELY 340 HP WAS INSTALLED, ALONG WITH AN MSD IGNITION AND MASSIVE ALUMINUM RADIATOR TO KEEP THINGS COOL. THE MOTOR IS MATED TO A PRO-BUILT 3-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, AND RUNS THROUGH A MEAN-SOUNDING DUAL EXHAUST SYSTEM. THE EXHAUST NOTE IS AWESOME, BOTH AT IDLE, AND WHEN YOU STICK YOUR FOOT INTO THE GAS. THE CAR IS ALL-DAY DEPENDABLE, EVEN IN TRAFFIC AND HEAT, AND THE PERFORMANCE IS VERY, VERY FUN.
THE CAR SITS ON 15" TORQUE-THRUST STYLE WHEELS, AND HAS FRONT DISC BRAKES AND POWER STEERING. THE STANCE, RIDE, AND HANDLING ARE TRULY PONY-CAR-EXCELLENT, WITH A NICE BOOST OF ADDED MUSCLE FROM THE HI-PO 289.
THE ONLY WEAK SPOT ON THIS CAR IS THE DOOR PANELS. THE ADHESIVE IS SEPARATING IN A FEW SPOTS, AND THE LEATHER SHOWS SOME WRINKLING AS A RESULT. THE FLOOR MATS SHOW WEAR AS WELL. OTHER THAN THAT THIS CAR IS VERY PRESENTABLE AND VERY STRAIGHT, AND A BLAST TO DRIVE!
MATT IS HAPPY TO THROW IN AN AUTOGRAPHED JERSEY OR BALL OR PICTURE, PERSONALLY SIGNED TO THE BUYER.
THIS 1966 MUSTANG CONVERTIBLE HAS A CLEAN CALIFORNIA TITLE, AND IS FOR SALE LOCALLY, SO I RESERVE THE RIGHT TO END THIS LISTING AT ANY TIME.
I WELCOME YOUR INSPECTION IN THE SOUTH BEACH AREA OF LOS ANGELES, AND I WILL DELIVER TO ANY SHIPPING DEPOT WITHIN 50 MILES OF DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES.
THANKS FOR LOOKING!
