The car was repainted approximately 8 years ago and is in excellent condition except for 1 spot over the passenger side wheel well and 1 spot on the driver side rocker panel where the paint is bubbling up. The black vinyl top is in great condition and shows no fading, cracking, or split seams normally seen on classic cars. The original interior is untouched and in great condition however there are a couple of minor blemishes on the door panels but they are not very noticeable, much less than normal wear. The original 289 V8 engine and automatic transmission are still in the car and perform and shift as good as good as it did in 1965 however there is a minor gasket leak so it does leak one or two drops of oil every couple of weeks. The stock 4 wheel drum brakes are still in place and lend to the nostalgic feel of driving a true classic vehicle. The suspension has not been modified therefore the bushings show some age and while they are still tight and have no play they are not as pliable as new. This car has not been a daily driver so while the tires have great tread left that are also showing signs age. This is a rare find and it has not been molested or modified, it still has the same options as it did when on the showroom floor including the stock radio. Also included are the original owner’s manual, the original jack, 4 original mustang hubcaps, and the rare functioning original ratcheting lug wrench. Speedometerdoes not show the 6th digit, mileage specified may not be correct. License plate not included.

In 1965, a new interior option was added, the interior decor group (known as the pony interior), which featured special seat covers with running horses across the back, special interior door panes with integral arm rests and pistol grip door handles, five gauge instrument panel, woodgrain steering wheel, and woodgrain appliques on the instrument cluster, glovebox, and optionally on the center console.
