1966 Mustang Coupe HO 302

Description

1966 Ford Mustang, originally a 289 car, swapped for a HO 302 from a 95 mustang. Bored.040 over, stock crank (balanced), forged pistons, all receipts from rebuilt available. Originally a C-code car out of NJ. HO Heads, loud exhaust dumps. Car runs great with Edebrock Performer Intake and 600cfm carb and reliable upgrades (dual master cylinder, disc brakes, electronic ignition, electric fan). Makes a great gasser. Upgrade the suspension and it'd be a respectable track car. C4 transmission with B&M bump-shift is a great combo, shifts like a manual.

List of rebuilt/replaced/reworked items includes:
- New forward floor pans on driver and pax side- Rustproofing and sound deadening material applied to entire interior floor surfaces- New carpet- Seats refinished (small split has formed on driver's side)- Repainted interior- New tachometer and mechanical engine gauges- New voltage regulator- Disc brake conversion (CSRP) on front wheels- Completely new drum hardware in rear- Electronic Points Elimination Kit installed under distributor- Electric fan (currently wired to +12 continuous, or can be removed to run only with key on)- Edelbrock Performer Carb (600 CFM)- Edelbrock aluminum intake- New valve covers plus second set from original motor- Radiator Re-cored and neck re-positioned to accommodate new water pump setup on late model engine- New transmission coolant (steel) lines- All new exterior badging (still needs upper fender engine ID badges)- Original bumpers replaced with newer ones, some light cracking on front bumper only)- New headlights/tail lights- New trunk mat- New interior floor mats- Upgraded to safer dual master cylinder setup- Completely new ignition system and components (coil, plugs, wires, etc.)- New fuel pump- New water pump- New alternator (plus one-wire alternator from HO motor)- New radiator hoses- Replaced stock shifter with B&M Z-Gate shifter- New steering wheel- All new ignition switch with matching door lock cylinders with four keys- Rebuilt trunk lock mechanism with two keys- New door handles- New polyurethane roller mechanisms in window tracks- New rear window track mechanism- New windshield wiper arms- New interior door panels, window cranks and opening mechanisms- New side view and rear view mirrors- Refinished headliner- Replaced numerous fasteners with newer or more correct versions
What still needs to be done:
- Luggage rack depicted in photos not currently installed. Not everyone is into the look so I wasn't going to drill holes in trunk lid just yet- Antenna needs to be replaced- Cracked paint at rear pillar and near driver's side rear wheel well- Some trim not installed or is missing. Rear windshield requires both 90-degree rounded upper corners. Centerpiece of front grill trim missing.- Exhaust currently consists of long-tube headers running to Hooker mufflers. These terminate in dumps forward of rear axle.- No reverse lights installed- Needs engine badging for upper front fenders- Weatherstripping on hand but not yet installed.
Car is 98% complete, only noncompleted jobs are minor and listed above. Numerous items will be included with purchase. These included (but again, are not limited to):
- Entire bracket and accessory system from the HO 302. Only part missing is the alternator bracket. With this addition and the use of included water pump and pulleys you have a very easy serpentine belt conversion.- Fuel rail and injectors from the HO. Primary component for a fuel injection conversion. I would have done it myself had I not just put the money into the intake and carb setup.- Spare valve covers with lower height- Spare wheel cover- Autolite 2100 carb (original to the car)- Enough hardware to reassemble the entire car. Twice. - At least a half dozen Mustang and Ford engine building books. Some useful, some outdated- Anything else I find in the garage that relates to the car
This listing finishes a six year restoration project that didn't include a paint job (already done), so the list of things done and available is extensive and not limited to what is listed here. I am available for viewings and am happy to answer any questions you may have. Car is located in Peachtree City, GA, about 20 miles south of Atlanta.
Reserve is set at $8500. May be interested in trade for MG/Triumph/Fiat convertibles.
