1965 Ford Mustang GT Convertible

1965 Ford Mustang GT Convertible

Chassis No. 5FO8A703002

Ford’s Mustang triggered competition from every major car company, creating the “ponycar” class overnight. Part of Mustang’s appeal – in addition to its trim size and sparkling performance – was the broad options list. A buyer could specify anything from a bare bones six-cylinder coupe to a top of the line fully equipped convertible – as offered here.

A true GT, not a catalog creation, this absolutely stunning example of Ford’s first pony car comes finished in Rangoon Red over the black deluxe Pony interior. Treated to a complete nut-and-bolt restoration from 2005 to 2007 with no expenses spared, the car drives every bit as well as it looks. One of the finest early first-generation Mustangs we ever have come across.

This Mustang is fitted with its correct close-ratio 4-speed transmission, power front disc brakes, GT suspension, and manual steering for the feel and drive ability that enthusiasts seek. The original A-code 289 4bbl has been treated to the engine dress-up option with chrome valve covers and air cleaner. The interior features the optional full-length console, power convertible top with boot, and wood-grain accents. Other features are the GT-specific fog lamps, dual exhaust, and wheels –  factory original ’65 GTs are becoming a rare find.
