Description

This attractive 1966 Ford Mustang coupe is proof that you don't need to spend a big pile of money to get an attention-grabbing early pony car. With an upgraded look and bigger 302 V8 under the hood, this is a fun cruiser that should serve you well for years to come.This is a very cool custom presentation of an icon. The Shelby-inspired touches make this distinctive, including the hood scoop, pony badge on the side of the blacked-out grille, and the GT350 side stripes. All of it makes this coupe a great tribute to 'ol Shell's barn burners, but at a fraction of the price. But there's even more going on here. You can instantly tell there was a nice investment in the modern silver paint to give this coupe a deep shine in the sunlight. Add in the upgraded alloy wheels, and the whole custom package looks like Eleanor's brother.A pristine black interior always looks great with an aggressive pony car. Everything from the bucket seats, to the door panels, to the carpeting, carries the kind of luster that tells you this has had proper care. The five-dial gauge panel became standard in 1966, which offers a sportier look and holds a complete set of gauges. There's plenty of 60s-chic brightwork around the readouts, heat/defrost switches, and the T-bar gearshift for the automatic transmission. But we know the part you really love is the custom black and wood sports steering wheel that comes complete with the Mustang pony etched in the center.The largest part that makes this Mustang such an aggressive package is under the hood. You know a 302 cubic-inch V8 was not available from the factory until a few years later, but it was just too good to resist installing it in this custom coupe. It looks great in the engine bay with the Cobra-style air grabber, Shelby-style bracer bar, and shiny Mustang valve covers. This added displacement means the dual exhaust has more power to create a larger rumble. Because Carroll Shelby built driver's cars, this custom coupe makes sure you can feel the road right down to the modern grip of Sumitomo HTRZ tires.This is a classic pony car that looks great, sounds mean, and adds some extra muscle behind the iconic '66. It's a complete package at an obtainable price. Call today!!!
