A first-year fastback with racing stripes, 289 V8, and a manual transmission oh yeah! This 1965 Ford Mustang is THE car that sold us all on the Mustang dream. And for those keeping track, this is a rare 63B car.Crisp lines, great detailing, and a beautiful Rangoon Red paint job make this one timeless. The 2+2 fastback style is rare and desirable today, but this one is even more special. Ford made over half a million Mustangs in 1965, but only 5,776 were built to 63B Luxury spec. And there is more to this coupe than just its specs. The factory-correct color benefits from an investment in a professional respray, and at the same time there were great gold racing stripes laid down. It gives this fastback a true speedy appearance and a great shine. Those fast and flashy elements are seen throughout the exterior on everything from the newer chrome bumpers to the aggressive 15-inch black chrome Coys wheels.A pristine black interior is always desirable in a classic, and this one really goes the extra mile. There has been an investment in keeping the seats, carpeting, and door panels looking fresh, and everyone love to see the desirable premium "Pony" package. Your position in the driver's bucket seat is exactly what you want in a vintage coupe. Your left hand grips the three-spoke wood and chrome steering wheel, and your right one rests comfortably on the Hurst stick shift. The upgraded GT package round gauges are crystal clear. There is room for upgrades in this very authentic package, but they are nicely disguised. For example, there's a push-button start under the dash and the AM/FM radio retains its chrome and knob-style appearance, but it's a modern digital tuner.Under the hood is the correct C-code 289 cubic-inch V8 that has been given a little extra flair. Against the fresh red engine bay, the chrome valve covers and air grabber are nice attention grabbers. This one also has the substance of a good driver with newer wires, hoses, and belt. The power of the V8 is truly in your hands as you row through the three-speed manual transmission and listen to the glasspack dual exhaust give its howl. This fastback offers one of the purest driving experiences that wants to keep you connected directly to the road, and so it's also nice to see the modern grip of wide BF Goodrich Radial T/As on this classic Mustang.Complete with build/maintenance receipts, this is a rare and well-presented pony that will be galloping out of our showroom soon.
