1965 Ford Mustang Restored 5 Speed Great Driver on 2040-cars

Year:1965 Mileage:41000 Color: door side view mirrors
Location:

Portland, Oregon, United States

Portland, Oregon, United States

Up for consideration is a very nice restored 1965 Ford Mustang. Factory C code V8 that originally came with a 3 speed transmission. (Now has a really nice T-5 Tremec 5 speed) Tons spent on new parts and labor to get this beauty to the condition it is in. You could not build one for the price of this car for sure!


I have recently acquired this beautiful car and I am not a Mustang expert, but I will do my best to get you the best pictures along with a detailed list of new items used during the restoration of this Mustang.  I will let all the pictures and as well as the obvious hard work put into this car speak for itself. Please ask if you have any questions at all.  If you are interested in the car I highly recommend contacting me and I would be happy to tell you what I know and answer your questions. Please make sure you read my terms and conditions and this will be a great experience for both of us. 

This is a very nice car that is done and ready to enjoy and drive. If you want to take it to another level I am sure that you can find things to do to it. That being said, I am not asking 15k for it. I have a very reasonable reserve and I will sell it. I am open to a " Buy it Now" it you want it. Just contact me and we can figure it out.


Please do not bid if you do not have the cash funds to follow through.

 I am an easy person to deal with and my # is 503-729-4392

 

The car is for sale locally and I do reserve the right to end auction if it sells here. If you want the car contact me. I am very easy to work with and I will be happy to assist you in getting a Mustang.

 

  I will give you a description of the car as I see it;


SEE PHOTOS BELOW!!

 

Engine:

When you open the hood of this car the engine looks fantastic! It is very clean and detailed. It runs as good as it looks. It has many brand new parts and is in near perfect condition. It sounds great and does not seem to have any leaks at all or make any weird noise or smoke.  I am not claiming that it is rebuilt as I do not know, but it has been out and detailed like one would see from a nice rebuilder. The engine bay is very clean and tidy. (Please see all photos and ask if you would like more) New fuel tank installed!

Transmission:

This is where this Mustang has an advantage over most. This car has had the T-5 upgrade to a Rebuilt Tremec 5 speed from a 1993 GT Mustang. I took it to a transmission shop next to my work and they tell me that it was professionally done and it must have cost a significant amount to have completed. The car runs out perfect and shifts nice. The car is a factory 3 speed, you can tell by looking at the tag that came off the door.

Rear End:

The Mustang has a factory 8 inch rear end with a rebuilt unit that has 3:55 gears. The car will come with the factory original gear set.

Suspension:

This Mustang has had all the suspension upgraded using all new components. It has the “Grab a Track” spring and handling kit on the front and rear of the car along with “Grab a Track” shocks. The front steer linkage is all new also using “Grab a Track rebuild kit. This is a manual steering car. The steering wheel is new but smaller. I would change it to a bigger one.

Brakes:

The Mustang has all new brakes. In the front it has SSBC 4 piston disc brakes using all new parts. It has a new master cylinder w/ adj proportional valve all the way to new calipers and rotors. The rear drum brakes are also new. The park brake does "Not" work, not sure why it is all there an looks like new. The front brake system was an upgrade that cost $699.00

Interior:

It is hard to say what the best part of this car is, but I would have to say it could be the interior. It is the Pony Deluxe with all new parts. I do not think that anything was left to chance when they did the interior. It is Excellent!!  Everything inside this car looks new, with very little wear. The entire heater/vent system was replaced/restored and works great. All the gauges and lights seem to work. It has a nice matching console that looks cool. It has a decent stereo system with I pod hook up. (Still looks factory)

Body & Paint:

While this Mustang is very straight and looks fantastic, I would have to say that the paint job could have been a bit better. If you look you can see where there might have been a little better attention to the prep of the car. While it is a fairly recent job, there are some nicks and a few scratches on it. I would definitely say it is a very nice driver quality job, and you don’t have to be afraid of damaging an $8,000 paint job. Don’t get me wrong, this is a very straight car with nice sheet metal. I had a friend that knows Mustangs and owns a shop take a look at it and he told me that it is “a solid car that is worth the asking price all day long” After a close inspection they told me that there was only 2 signs of any previous damage. Under the driver’s seat there was some rust repair and the rear driver’s quarter had been fixed at one time. That is it.

The glass is in good original condition, the only thing I would do is put in a new windshield, it has several scratches and one rock chip. All the windows roll up well. And all the weather strip and felt is new.

 

Exhaust:

Exhaust is new and it goes out the back through a new GT lower valance panel with trumpet tips.

 

Tires and Wheels:

New Grand Am tires with American Racing Torque Thrust wheels. The rear Wheels are Brand New! The front tires are 205/60/15 and the rear tires are 235/60/15

 

Drivability:

The car runs and drives excellent! Starts every time without hesitation, runs strong and shifts great!  With the transmission and overdrive (5th gear) it runs at about 1700 rpm at 65 mph.

 

 

Overall a better than average Mustang and a very decent restoration! A lot of time and money went into this car.

From Expedition to Navigator: our predictions for Lincoln's SUV

Tue, Feb 7 2017

In the midst of all the buzz surrounding the new aluminum Ford Expedition and Expedition Max, we remembered the other large SUV the Ford Motor Company showed last year, the Lincoln Navigator concept. And since the Navigator has historically been built on the Expedition platform, we figured there's no better time to focus some of our predictions for the big Lincoln. First off, let's take a look at design. Having seen the new Expedition, we're fairly confident that the Navigator will look almost exactly like its concept. The strong similarities between two mean the Expedition serves as a preview of what a production Navigator will look like. For example, both vehicles' greenhouses we can see that the shape of the C-pillars are nearly identical. The only difference is that the Expedition's are painted body color, while the Navigator's are painted black. Additionally, the character line running along the top of the doors on both vehicles is roughly the same height. The same goes for the more subtle crease near the bottom of the doors. We also see no reason why Lincoln wouldn't use the full width taillights, fender vent, and grille treatment it used on the concept. Those are all easy design changes to create differentiation, and they're all right inline with the cues set by the Continental. View 15 Photos For powertrain, we're pretty certain the 400-horsepower 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6 previewed on the concept is a certainty now. The Expedition and Expedition Max will be offered with a 3.5-liter EcoBoost as well, so we know it will fit. We expect the Expedition's engine will produce 375 horsepower and 470 lb-ft of torque as it does in the F-150. That's less power than the Navigator concept, but it would be reasonable to make the production Navigator a bit more powerful than its lowly Ford brethren to help justify the increased price tag. Towing capacity will probably be about the same between the Ford and Lincoln, which should be something over 9,000 pounds. The Navigator will probably use the same two-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive drivetrains, too. Inside is where the Expedition and Navigator will likely differ the most, particularly in seating. The Expedition offers seating for up to eight with an available second-row bench seat, and the Navigator concept had captain's chairs for every row. We're expecting the Navigator will only offer second-row captain's chairs since the cramped third row would be a waste of nice buckets.

Ford books $1.2B profit in second quarter on strength of trucks

Wed, 24 Jul 2013

Ford is rolling along nicely, with a positive second-quarter sales report and a $2.3 billion profit in North America. The Dearborn, Michigan-based manufacturer captured $1.2 billion globally from April to June, with a $177 million profit in Asia. Even in Europe, the land of doom and gloom for automakers not named Mazda, Ford saw some success as it lowered its expected full-year loss from $2 billion to $1.8 billion. The company lost $348 million in Europe during the second quarter, which, believe it or not, represents a $56-million improvement over 2012.
According to the report on CNBC, Ford enjoyed a three-percent increase in pre-market trading thanks to the news. The strong demand for the F-150 propelled growth in the US market, while Ford's 47-percent increase in Asian sales can be attributed to the new EcoSport crossover and Kuga (Ford Escape in the US) arriving in the somewhat fragile Chinese market.
Pre-tax profits for Ford are expected to be in the neighborhood of $8 billion by the end of the year, with sales the US, Europe, and China all looking up. The company also shifted $4.78 billion of asset-backed debt in the form of bonds, according to a report by Bloomberg. This move came amidst rumors of the Federal Reserve cutting back on its $85-billion-per-month bond purchases. Ford wasn't alone among automakers looking to sell off debt, though, as Mercedes-Benz and Nissan shifted around $1 billion each in bonds relating to auto loans.

Ford to reveal Vignale sub-brand with special Mondeo in Frankfurt

Tue, 03 Sep 2013

Ford says that 10-15 percent of its customers in Europe want their cars to be set apart from regular Fords - even those wearing the top Titanium X trim - and the Blue Oval will answer them with the Vignale sub-brand. The new brand proposes a more upscale look and a much-improved dealership experience, Autocar reports. The Vignale Mondeo will debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show to kick off the new endeavor.
The first Ford to receive the Vignale treatment will be the 2015 Mondeo, a Euro-only model, followed by the new S-Max and Edge. The Vignale Mondeo is set apart visually from other Mondeos by a chrome grille and chrome door handles and mirror caps. Mondeo badging will be deleted - only Vignale badging will make an appearance.
The interior will get a more upscale flavor, as well, with quilted leather seats and door trim and leather covering the instrument panel, center console and steering wheel. A Vignale-badged storage drawer will be installed in the trunk, and in-car Wi-Fi is available.
