POPPY RED RESTO/MOD 1965 FORD MUSTANG WHITE SHELBY RACING STRIPES 302 CI ENGINE

Description for Ford Mustang 1965

Up for auction is my beautiful 1965 Ford Mustang coupe. I collect and have a hand in restoring classic cars and with a hobby like this. (unless your Jay Leno) comes the inevitable pain of letting go of some in order to make room for others. History: This Mustang rolled off the assembly line out of San Jose. Ca in 1965. Originally a "C" code. the Mustang came equipped with a V8 289 CID engine. Through my research. the car spent much of its life in California with the original owner who eventually sold the Mustang in 2002. The car spent the next ten years in Washington State before I purchased it and brought it to Idaho. Paint/Exterior: PPG primer surfacer and sealer. Brand new PPG "Poppy Red" base coat/clear coat paint with Wimbledon White Shelby racing stripes- painted to specs. Clear coat cut and polished to a high-gloss finish. Brand new windshield and custom tinted windows. New emblems. badges. door handles and bumpers. Engine: In 2009 the Mustang received an upgrade from the previous owner who swapped out the stock 289 engine and replaced it with a Summit 302 CID engine w/approx 300 HP that runs and sounds amazing! * 1970 Block* OE cast iron heads* OE crank and connecting rods* Hypereutectic pistons* Hydraulic Roller Cam Shaft* 9. 0:1 compression* Holley 500 cfm carb w/manual choke* Accel Hi-temp Radio Suppression super stock 8 mm spark plug wires* New harmonic balancer* New dual exhaust * New heater and radiator hoses* Sealed tight.
