The Ford Mustang is one of the iconic models of the American car brand Ford. The Mustangs name comes from the American fighter plane Mustang P-51 and was coined by the man responsible at Ford for the styling of the first Ford Mustang: John Najjar. The first Mustang came off the production line on April 17, 1964.

The Mustang was an immediate sales success, partly due to its attractive base price of only US $ 2368, - in 1964. Its sporty appearance was also greatly appreciated. The Mustang also sold relatively well in the Netherlands in the 1960s until the 1973 oil crisis caused sales of these types of cars worldwide to collapse. The Mustangs were assembled for the European markets from 1965 to 1967 in the Dutch Ford factory in Amsterdam. The Mustang model is still produced by Ford and is still a very popular car in America.

The current Mustang model is an electric car. The Mustang has played an important role in countless TV movies. The most famous movie is probably the movie Bullit in which Steve McQueen plays the lead role together with a fastback version of the Mustang. The famous chase through the streets of San Francisco really put the Mustang on the map as a super sporty car! This Ford Mustang Fastback is one of the first model, the so-called 64½ model which was made from 1964 to 1967. The fastback V8 is one of the most sought after Mustang and more wanted and more expensive then the convertible.

This fastback was built in 1966 at the Ford factory in Dearborn, Michigan. It is factory equipped with a 289 cubic inches V8 engine with an automatic gearbox. According to the manufacturers specification, this 289 cubic inches (4.7 liter) 8 cylinder has an output of 200 hp, which was of course very respectable at the time. The torque of these V8 engines is also famous. In addition, they are known for being fairly trouble-free and easy to repair. This car was finished in the factory in Vintage Burgundy Red with an off-white interior. This Mustang is really a beauty to see in this color, a real eye-catcher! This Mustang has never been restored and is optically and technically a survivor, both outside and in the interior.

On the outside you see some damages from use and from the sun and some very small spots with rust. In the bottoms and trunk some welding will be needed. The engine has been rebuild a few years ago but there is no documentation on this. The engine runs good and sounds good, has lots of torque and does not smoke. The engine was upgraded with a electric ignition from the brand Procomp. The automatic gearbox shifts smooth. The tires are in thr size 215/65/15 from the brand Firehawk Indy500 all around and still have more than sufficient profile. (see photo gallery).The interior looks very nice for its age and can be used as is or be brought to the next level. The owner reports that there are shrinkage cracks in the steering wheel of which there are pictures provided in the gallery. This can be repaired or the steering wheel can be replaced if the new owner would prefer this this.

The car was imported from America and comes with the original American Title and import papers for Europe. The import tax has already been paid. The import papers are valid for all of Europe so you can bring the car to any European country without having to pay additional import taxes.
