1965 Ford Mustang Base 3.3L
Description
Thank you for considering this arduous project. 20 years ago this car would have gone straight to the scrap yard as did so many iconic classics of yesteryear. Fortunately or perhaps not, this one remained in the woods of Westchester County, New York and did not turn into a modern microwave oven!! I may be reached by cell or text at 914 403 1768, John
I am offering for sale for the first time this barely surviving 1965 6 cylinder coupe. The original drive train remains and appears to be functional. The engine turns freely with the use of a socket attached to the main pulley. Compression can easily be heard . No ugly sounds emerge as you turn over the engine. The belts turn as do the generator and cooling fan. The rear wheels turn as well as the front. The car is not fit with power steering or power brakes. The manual 3 speed is also complete and original as it waits to be awaken from a hibernation of decades. It enjoys its original non metallic blue paint color.
The dash is original including its push button AM/AM radio. Not a misprint! The steering wheel is from day one. The car was fit with a white vinyl interior including bucket seats. The driver's seat has gone missing. I have found a pair of period buckets in nice condition on Ebay.
Now for the heavy work. Rust everywhere. Floors, quarters and doors. Tons of it! Everywhere. But, the sub-frame is solid and straight. I see no accident history front or rear. This is a rare opportunity, especially if you can do body work on your own
I am including all of the assorted parts shown in these photos including front and rear bumpers and 2 additional; steel wheels. Correct paperwork accompanies the car. New York State did not issue titles until 1974; therefore it is transferred on a New York DMV form and a motorized New York State Bill of Sale. My cellular is 914 403 1768. Text is fine as well. Probably better to ask questions first before bidding over your head.
This is a non running car but may be easily moved about on a flat bed. Feel free to call and come and inspect before making this purchase. The number 5 condition in last year's "Collector Car" Price Guide is over $3000, basically for a complete parts car. Prices of Mustangs have only gone up, and the 65s in any shape are becoming harder and harder to find. If transportation is your concern, feel free to contact my dear friend, David Lempert, owner of Transport Masters at 561 482 7789 for a courteous and complimentary estimate.
The car is located in the beautiful hamlet of Bedford Village New York, just 42 miles north of Times Square, Thank you, and God Bless the United States of America. Sincerely, NY Fireman, John Louis.
