1965 Ford Mustang Restomod

Car has been family owned since 1993 and was rebuilt in 2010. I built this car because it was my mothers. When passed away, I remembered how for years she always said how she wanted it restored, so in her memory I did just that. This car was a great project and has since been a hell of a ride, but my sister and I are moving and sadly it has to go. It is a daily driver and a long distance driver. I state this because during my move from Portland, OR to Taos, NM I drove this car and it did great the entire trip with no issues. It was hardly driven in Portland and for the 2 years that I've lived in Taos, I'd drive it a little bit more, but the town here is so small I never really had to and mostly rode my bike. Recently, I have moved from Taos, NM back to Wichita, KS for a short stint and drove the Mustang. It did fantastic the entire time as expected!


 

Here's all that was done to it upon rebuild:

- Everything was removed, car was stripped down to bare metal, POR-15 all along the bottom
- Installed new driver and passenger side floorboards
- Placed in a rebuilt 302 V8 which only has 4-6,000 miles on it maybe and still has the Fomoco 2 barrel carb 
- New aluminum radiator
- Installed front disc brakes from a '68 Mustang.
- Cleaned up and installed original console and air conditioner 
- Placed it new interior inside car and trunk as well as installed a new dash, door panels, carpet, front seat and back seat covers and headliner
- Installed exterior oil & temp gauges underneath air conditioner 
- New rubber lining and felts for windows
- New Mustang door plates and front kicker panels
- Installed new brake lines and gave it new American Racing aluminum wheels along with 30,000 mile Ventus HRII tires (only have 4-6,000 miles on them as well and tread is still excellent) (215 50R 16's on front and 225 50R 16's on rear)
- Installed a new gas tank
- Placed new shackles for leaf springs
- Installed green LEDs inside instrument panel and LED intermittent lights for the rear blinkers
- Painted the car with base coat/clear coat C3P0 color
- New hood (not fiberglass)
- Kept the manual steering
- Gaps for doors, hood, and trunk were meticulously placed to make sure all gaps were straight and even (you would've thought we were OCD about it)
- Installed a Custom Sound USA-230 AM/FM player with an MP3 hookup (auxillary wire sits in ashtray for easy hookup to ipod/mp3 module)
- Installed used speakers with new Eclipse speaker covers (speakers sound great and can get loud)
- New Mustang side emblems
- New chrome valve covers
- New Grant wood steering wheel
- New rear and front bumper
- New front splash shield/rock guard
- All original glass still in place except front windshield which is new

Now here's the bad:

- Minor chip in windshield above passenger side wiper (pretty deep and will need to be fixed)
- Some rock chips  on the paint from driving it, but have been covered by C3P0 touch-up paint
- Paint could probably use a good buffing
- Driver side seat cover is starting to show a gap between one of the seams where you place your back
- Center piece of Grant wood steering wheel (Mustang emblem) doesn't stay on all the time and sometimes pops off
- Rear passenger quarter window has to be slightly pulled up when closing window
- One of the bearings in the air conditioner clutch is bad (other than that, the A/C is top notch! just don't have time to fix it due to the move)
  
 
        Even with these nitches, car is mechanically sound and title is free and clear!!!

After project was finished, car got appraised at $17,500 Here's the document that was placed by Charles Carver of Pride Autoplaza:

This is a nice appearing freshly restored Mustang that can serve the dual purpose of being a show worthy car but also a car that could be practical to use as a daily driver.  Its strong features include its good history and its good planning and workmanship resulting in a very appealing and attractive finished product.  Factors that limit the cars value are its non originality.  Based on this information, I would place this 1965 Ford Mustang 2 Door Coupe is Fair Market Value at $17,500.00.

Car comes with extras along with appraisal paperwork if you want it.

Extras with the car:

- Front bumper guards and clips (never installed bumper guards cause I liked the look without them)
- Chilton manual
- Original valve covers
- Outer passenger side door & an inner door handle
- Bunches of glass fuses for the fuse box
- Blue enamel paint I used for the motor (and yes it still sprays good)

And Last But Certainly Not Least:

There is a reserve price for this item. However if the reserve isn't met at the end of the ad, I will personally e-mail the last/highest bidder if it's close to the reserve and work with you on the price so that we can find a happy median. Now since I am doing this, I will not inform you what the reserve price is so don't bother asking. If you have any other questions though, please don't hesitate to ask. And if you're serious about the ad, please keep checking the description every so often. 

***This item is listed locally and do have the right to end the sale before the end of the auction date if purchased***

Thanks for looking and happy bidding!

Ford readying dozen+ Mustang models for SEMA

Wed, 22 Oct 2014

Ford is unsurprisingly bringing a herd of its new 2015 Mustang models to next month's SEMA show in Las Vegas. Over a dozen of them are arriving from top aftermarket outfits like Galpin Auto Sports, Steeda, Roush and others. The Blue Oval isn't just shining a spotlight on the V8 model, though. The new EcoBoost 2.3-liter version with 310 horsepower and 320 pound-feet of torque is also getting its time in the sun.
Among the shined-up ponies will be a showcar helping Galpin celebrate the Mustang's golden anniversary, with the car is covered in the precious metal. The black paint over the body has gold flecks in it, and the wheels, side sills, brake calipers and badges all match, as well. However, it takes more than something shiny to truly impress at SEMA, and Galpin's Mustang also packs a Whipple supercharger for the 5.0-liter V8, boosting the bottom line to 725 horsepower. Take that, Hellcat. There's even a window in the hood to look through, not unlike a Chevrolet Corvette ZR1. The coupe also wears new headlights with LED turn signals that activate in sequence, just like the taillights, and the interior features black-and-gold Recaro seats.
Also set for its SEMA debut is an MRT showcar that takes the EcoBoost Mustang for a gallop with its TKO treatment. The black and orange two-tone car has been designed to incorporate select road racing elements. Mechanical upgrades include 14-inch brake rotors with new ducts, a Vortech air-to-air intercooler and an Air Lift suspension. The Mustang also shows off the company's products for added style and performance including a hood with integrated heat extractors and a unique front splitter.
