There aren't too many cars that have the legendary, all-encompassing appeal that the Ford Mustang does. When it comes to this 1965 Ford Mustang 2+2 Fastback, it's easy to see why. Mixing timeless looks with serious performance chops straight from the factory, this '65 Fastback has it all. Wrapping iconic Ford V8 power under the hood and pairing it to a stunningly correct "Wimbledon White" paintjob, this '65 Mustang leaves you without a doubt in mind as to why it's an absolute showstopper. And, with only 86,946 believed-to-be original miles on the odometer, this '65 Mustang has plenty of life left in it. Originally powered by a "C-Code" 289 C.I. V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor, this Mustang has had that 2-barrel swapped out for a heavy-breathing Edelbrock 4-barrel carburetor and intake to make even more power. Torque from that 289 gets to the pavement through a smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission, ensuring that this fast Ford isn't just capable of asphalt-scorching acceleration but also for comfortable cruising. Featuring long, flowing bodylines that extend all the way from the tip of the hood all the way to the trunk lid in one even swoop, this '65 Fastback is gorgeous in every way, shape, and form. In addition to those laser-straight bodylines, the Mustang in question sports unbelievably-attractive "Wimbledon White" paint that's complimented by red "C-Stripes" that really make this Mustang stand out. The floors, frame, trunk and jambs are all also rock-solid and in great shape! Opening the twin doors and stepping inside reveals a gorgeous 79-code "Palomino" vinyl interior, a rare combination with the white paint that adorns the car's comfy bucket seats nicely. The interior of this car also features a fold-down rear seat, factory A/C (missing compressor), and aftermarket aux. gauges. Other options on this '65 Fastback include power steering, a jack & spare tire, the original 2-barrel carburetor, intake and air cleaner, vent windows, factory gauges, an original AM pushbutton radio, and a good-sounding dual exhaust system. The car rides on a factory set of 14" Mustang wheels wrapped with B.F. Goodrich RWL tires for a factory-fresh, aggressive look. Turn the key and that 289 starts right up, showing that this '65 Mustang runs and drives down the road like a dream. This sleek Ford fastback is an correct and accurate representation of a formula that, 57 years later, rightfully stays true to the title of the world's best-selling sports car. If you're looking for a car that's every bit as impressive as it is unique, then this incredible '65 Ford is just what you're looking for!
