What we have here is an all original 1965 Mustang Convertible with 86,500 miles on the odometer. This car has been restored to original and is finished in Poppy Red complemented by a beautiful White vinyl Interior. This car is stunning and is in overall very good condition.

Convertible Mustangs from 1965, 1966 and 1967 are arguably the most sought-after Mustangs from the period; this particular specimen is a truly great and original car, 289 V8 - 4-speed manual transmission - all original to the car and a full center console. Professionally restored in 2005, this car has been meticulously cared for.

This car has a touching history. For all intents, this was a single-owner car when the current owner bought it. The original buyer kept it for 18 months. At that point, it was bought as a high school graduation present for our seller (purchase document included in sale), who owned the car for 49 years. It was garaged for a long period and was restored by the owner's husband as a gift for his wife in 2005. Sadly, she contracted cancer shortly afterwards and passed away. From that point, the car was garaged and not driven at all. The car was traded in by our previous owner and purchased from the dealer in Portland.

This car is for the true collector and offers a rare opportunity to own a classic masterpiece of Americana, a true and solid number 2 car. Do not let the opportunity to own this car pass you by. We have priced this vehicle to provide you the best deal on a car of this caliber.
