The Mustang had been in storage since the early 1970's.
Although the car was in very good condition, it was dis-assembled in preparation for paint. I don't know
how long it was in this condition. It still had bias tires, which I still have, on the original styled steel rims.
When I got the car home, I found that it was in excellent condition. I did replace some parts like the carpet,
tires, and some of the small chrome pieces. The car started right up but needed the original carb rebuilt. I
replaced the gas tank and it has been a great runner ever since. The car was painted shortly after I got it and
had no rust. I did have the right rear quarter replaced at that time with one off a doner car. The quarter had
been damaged at some point and the body man felt that replacing it was the best option. It was painted in its
original Prairie Bronze. In the years since I have replaced the rims with a wider version although I have the
originals as well. Last year I replaced the door panels because the handle part on the drivers side was slightly
frayed. I have the originals. I recently had the carb rebuilt again. the car had 29,000 miles on it when I
purchased it and has 31,423. I believe this mileage to be original to the car but have nothing to document this.
The seat covers and headliner are original. I replaced the valve covers with aftermarket gold ones because the
original owner had painted the originals blue. You can see the gold paint on the originals. I will include the
originals as well as any other parts I have with the sale of this car. The car is missing a piece of trim that
goes around the back seat on the passenger side but other than that, I believe everything is all there.
This car came with the original GT package with the fog lights, duel exhaust, and other GT options. It has power
steering and disc brakes in the front. It has the gauge package but the clock is not working. It has the fold down
rear seat. Basically it has every option that was offered with an A code fastback in 1965. Everything is original
on this car and it runs fantastic.
Rarely does something this original and in this kind of condition become available. Don't let this car pass you
by.

Next-gen Ford Cobra Jet development underway, but will it be a Mustang?
Wed, 09 Oct 2013Ford might be stepping away from the NHRA, but it isn't abandoning drag racing altogether. Hot Rod says that Ford confirmed a next-gen Cobra Jet factory drag racer is in the works, but the report also speculates that a new Cobra Jet could switch away from the Mustang nameplate.
Even though talk of a new Cobra Jet coincides with the all-new 2015 Mustang, the lack of confirmation for the dragster's platform leaves Hot Rod to guess that the car might switch to another platform - specifically a front-drive-based, unibody car like the Fusion or Taurus. We'd hate to think of a world with a NASCAR-ized dragster from Ford Racing, but it's also highly unlikely that the Mustang Cobra Jet would step away from its quarter-mile rivals like the Chevy COPO Camaro and Dodge Challenger Drag Pak.
Project Ugly Horse: Part VIII
Fri, 17 May 2013Now With More EcoBoost
There's an EcoBoost 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder in there somewhere, and it's headed straight for Ugly Horse.
For the second time in my life, I'm staring at an engine in the back of a truck with no concept of how to get it safely into the garage by my lonesome. The first time this happened, I dragged home a $300 International 345 V8 in the back of my Scout Terra only to discover that the bounds of my manliness terminated well before my ability to muscle that 800-pound cast iron block out of the pickup bed.
New Ford Police Interceptor tech protects cops' backsides
Mon, 22 Jul 2013It was only a matter of time before law enforcement agencies would realize the potential of driver-assist technology for use in their Ford Police Interceptors, and, now that they have, those back-up cameras and radar systems won't be used just for parking, but for security, as well.
The surveillance mode system works when the camera or radar detects movement from behind the vehicle, and if it does when it's activated, an alarm will alert the officer inside the car, the driver's side window will roll up and the doors will lock, protecting the officer from an unwanted intrusion. The officer, of course, has the option to turn surveillance mode off, mainly in urban areas where pedestrians would constantly set the alarm off, and it can only be activated when the police car is in park.
Randy Freiburger, Ford's police and ambulance fleet supervisor, came up with the patent-pending idea when researching the needs of police officers and riding along with them, during which time he realized officers would be safer with an extra set of eyes watching the area behind their cars, especially at night or when they're completing paperwork, using the in-car computer or handling a radar gun. "Unfortunately, there are people with bad intentions who sneak up on police officers," he says.
