Introduction
Darren Rungasamy
An original legend, the Pony car, the Mustang was often imitated but arguably never bettered!
Created as an affordable, compact and stylish performance car, the Ford Mustang was first seen in 1964. It quickly rose to the top of the US sales charts thanks to its many personalisation possibilities and ability to appeal to younger consumers. Referred to as a "Pony Car" due to its compact and sporty nature, the Mustang made a name for itself in road and rally races too, where its speed, strength, and agility enhanced the car's credibility. The Mustang was developed over its lifetime and to date, and remains the only "Pony Car" still in production, albeit in a highly evolved form. The early incarnations have become sought after, thanks to their handsome, simple styling and undiluted appeal. The Mustang offers a slice of Americana with sensible road manners, excellent parts availability and a huge amount of credibility.
This 1965 Dearborn-built coupe was originally ordered in "Wimbledon White" with a blue vinyl interior, 289 cu in (5.0-litre) small block V8 engine. Options include a Cruise-O-Matic (Automatic) gearbox, Rally Pac Clock/Tachometer option, power steering, reversing lights and grill-mounted fog lights. Imported into the UK in 2009, it was renovated by a Mustang enthusiast, who spent ~£5,000 mostly on the engine and structure. Kept in dry storage with occasional use over the last ~2 years with our vendor, it comes with a current V5, import documents and a file full of invoices.
