1965 Mustang 289 2v, Restoration started, Running

Description

Bought her 9.5 years ago and drove for about 4 years before starting to restore her. I started doing the body work, but will be leaving the country soon and don't have time to finish.

Put everything back together for the pictures besides the hard pieces that you will need to take back off anyway. All the chrome/emblems are included. Posted a pre resto pic so you have an idea of the initial quality.

Driven her in and out of the garage over the years, but wouldn't trust her on the road with the old tires.Starts and runs well. Once in a while she lets a bit of smoke out on start, but clears up immediately.

All the primed areas were stripped down to the bare metal first (had 2 layers of paint/primer). Mostly mechanically with a DA, especiallynear any holes and side areas,chemicallyelsewhere. Used Rage gold for any filler.

New passenger fender, still needs some alignment. Bunch of random screws need replacing as the previous owners apparentlyjust used what they could find.

Haven't found any cancer besides minor surface rust in a few places. Accidentally broke the passenger headlight.

Ac worked when I bought, but has since leaked out. Guessing the compressor is still good, but no way to test.

Most everything seems original, but haven't looked at the numbers, can get details if you want. The water pump, radiator, front fenderand fuel pump are not original/oem.

Paid off, have the title in hand.

Please ask any questions before bidding. Tried to describe everything I can think of. If you want more pictures of anything, please let me know. As for transportation, obviously just primed, so enclosed will be best, plus the rear window is not fixed in place, but canbe put inside for local transport.
