Description

1965 Ford Mustang Convertible with factory Air Conditioning, 9,525 original miles, rd owner, o rust ever!
State Auto Leasing bought this car new and leased it to Superior Package Boiler and Equipment Co. on 6/7/65.
The car was sold to James B. Strup on 10/14/68 for $900.00 (see pictures for bill of sale).
The car remained with Mr. Strup for the next 47 years (1968 - 2015). Upon Mr. Strup's passing the car was sold to me on 10/1/2015. At that time the car had 49,450 miles and was sold to me by Mr. Strup's wife (Mary Rose Strup).
9/3/64 - 6,000 mile service at 6,200 miles4/6/66 - 12,000 service at 15,077 miles11/30/66 - 20,000 mile service at 26,155 miles5/16/68 - 48,000 mile service at 45,379 miles
The car was driven less than 4,000 miles between 10/14/68 and 10/1/15!
I have the original keys, uild sheet, .D. Card, wners manual, nd several receipts from the past 50 years. The car was repainted once by Mr. Strup in the original color, ilver smoke gray. It was painted by Rice's Auto Painting in West Hepstead, .Y. in 1977 I believe. I believe but cannot be sure as the work order does not show the date. I think it was 1977 because I do have the receipt for a new convertible top dated 9/15/77 and it is believed Mr. Strup had the new top put on and the car repainted at he same time. When repainted neither the engine compartment, oor jamsnor trunk were repainted, hey still retain their original silver smoke gray paint.
The timing chain and gas tank were replaced 10/7/09. Some of the other work that was done on the car that I do not have receipts for are: cherry bomb mufflers, ower brakes, heels as shown (I do have the steel wheels and full hubcaps), nbsp;intake manifold and carburetor. The interior is original except for the passenger door panel which I replaced as the original was less than perfect. The original door panel is dated 3/1/65 and will be included with the sale. At some point the radio was replaced with an after market model,I do not have the original.
Everything on the car works as it should. The air blows cold, he power top works correctly, orn works, ipers work, ll lights and directionals work. I have found no evidence of patches or rust repair on the car. When the car was repainted it is believed that it was rust free. I think the carpet is the original but I am not sure.
If you are interested in inspecting the car before auction end it is located in Mooresville, .C. The car is titled in my name in Wisconsin rather than North Carolina as WI is where my principle residence is. I bought the car in Mooresville, C where I have a 2nd home. I will be in Mooresville from 3/17- 3/30 so if you want to come and inspect the car or have questions please call me at 262-617-1953.
