1965 CLASSIC FORD MUSTANG 2 DOOR HARDTOP - Just turned "50"!!!

Description for Ford Mustang 1965

Look who just turned “50” years old… this 1965 CLASSIC FORD MUSTANG 2 DOOR HARDTOP. This is a very clean car in good condition. I have a copy of the original purchase title work dated 3/6/69 showing ownership through one dealership and two private owners before myself. There is a clear and good title to the car. We are very honest and have 100% positive feedback on eBay. The car has been garage kept and then covered! It has approximately 139. 84 miles and approximately 20. 00 on the rebuilt engine per the previous owner. It is a 6 cylinder engine (straight six); 200 cubic in. automatic transmission with cruise-o-matic. Tires are P185/80R13 M+S Firestone Supreme and appear to be in ok/good shape. We have original owner’s manual and the radio owner’s manual. The owner’s manual says the “vehicle code 65C-X-36-2YR-26-2-6”. The interior is black and in very good condition! There is no damage or blemishes that I can see other than a small 2 ½” tear/crack near the bottom of the driver’s side door panel and the driver’s side door arm rest has a small crack in it. There are no marks/scratches on the dash or instrument panel. glass or ceiling. The steering wheel has a black wrapping on it. There is a pull down arm rest between the front seats. The front seats pull forward for back seat access. It has seat belts in the front. All systems appear to function fine with the except that the gas gauge does not work. the turn signals don’t always work (maybe a short?) and there is one “clearance” light (yellow) that is a below the grill that is not currently operating. It may be just a bulb…but want to be accurate. There is a spare tire (Hallmark 200 Polycore) that appears older but the tread looks good and a jack in the trunk. The car runs good. It has not been driven in the last several years other than to drive in a lot and idling to keep in running order. Mostly just parked inside and covered. The body paint metallic burgundy. Is does not appear to be the original paint. There are some paint blemishes if you look close. There are no rust spots. no holes in sides or floor boards. etc. The blemishes in the paint I can see are (when I say “spot” I mean blemish – not rust or rusted through or hole. etc!): On the driver’s side just below the back ½ window a paint “cracking” place approximately 1”-2”Spot above the wheel well of the front driver side tire that is approximately 1”Spot on the lower half of passenger door that is approximately 2”Round spot on top of car that is approximately 1”3 small spots on front panel on drivers sideSmall scratch on right side piece below rear bumper that is approximately 1”Spot on lower half of passenger door that is approximately 2” x ¾”2 small gouges under the back door bumper on the passenger side that is approximately 3” in the paint and another that is approximately 1 ½” On the back of car on the drivers side there is a chip that is approximately ¼” that was touched up above the light3 small paint chips/cracks by headlight frame on drivers sideA small chip on hood on drivers side A small mark with no paint on drivers side grill paint that is approximately 1”Faint abrasion above passenger back wheel that is approximately 1” longSmall marks on inside of truck lid There are no rust spots. holes through the metal or spots that “move when pushed” like weak metal. I am very honest and just want to detail everything that I can see so you don’t have to guess at the condition. If you look underneath the car you can see some rust ( which I understand is very normal) but it isn’t flaking off or rusted through. etc. It is 50 years old :). Below is a list of known work that has been done on the car – this list was provided to me from the previous owner – so I do not know details. Transmission pan leak repaired in 2007Shifter tightened and gear linkage adjusted in 2007Tie rods. ball joints. arms and shocks replaced in 2003AM/FM Mustang cassette radio installed in 2003 (still have original radio also)Muffler replaced in 1990Drum brakes and heater core replaced in 90’sMaster oil cylinder replaced a few years ago It is appraised by NADA for several thousand dollars above the starting price but you are encouraged to do your own research. I have also been told by one local person that this car is unique/rare for the year and model to have the seats division and style. We are NOT CAR COLLECTORS. car experts. mechanics by any means :).
