1965 Mustang Fastback restored to driver status, original 289 missing, used 200 6 cyl driveline and floors taken from a California coupe welded in using factory locations, all panels original ford factory including rust free floors, doors, roof, rockers and fenders. Frame rails zero rust. Quarters were replaced with aftermarket at belt line. Vehicle had many dents in all panels except roof is perfect, removed dents and used 3M light weight body filler very sparingly to level (will block to dime thickness in dent areas when complete), Hood leading edge was rolled over and pointed down did repair but does have a lot of filler in it, will need more sanding/ shaping if you want to save or will need replace. Block sanded car (one time) and covered in PPG epoxy primer. Will need to be blocked and leveled again for paint. Quarter tops need more sanding. Doors open and close as they should, gaps better than most I see in car shows or calendars, Glass does have deep pitting and scratches, windshield is original Ford. Quarter vents disassembled/ cleaned/ lubed and reassembled, removed all lead from vehicle as it was cracked in areas, all exterior lamps working, all interior lamps working with exception to interior quarter lamps as no wiring. I do have nice original passenger door interior trim panel, drivers is a custom.

New: has new water pump, fuel pump, distributor, master and wheel cylinder, brake and fuel lines, Fuel tank and sending unit, high energy coil and Petronix ignition upgrade (Ihate points) , new front seal for trans, all new gaskets for engine but rear main seal, that does have a drip, new headliner, new gaskets for windshield, battery is 5 years old but kept on a trickle charger, reman carb purchased 3 years ago, was just cleaned out prior to posting ad. Runs great drive home, trailer or I will help load with shipper.

Needs: window adjustment or regulators ( tight operation), right axle seal has light leak, outer drip moldings missing, trap door missing, kick panels missing, carpet poor fit as only molded for trans tunnel not foot wells, seat covers front torn.

Great start for completion or drive as is (that is what I was going to do). Blank slate for Cobra motor and mustang II suspension etc... if that is your thing.

Please email with questions, I have attempted to describe the vehicle as best as I can. I HATE surprises when looking at vehicles and I know you do to, so if something is in question please ask. This is not a perfect car it will need work to get there, but again is a great start for a show car or completed driver in primer.

Have the original door tag that was heavily sandblasted and can be only clearly read from back side see photo, it matches clear Minnesota title in my name and inner fender stamped vin. Door tag is below:
