Description from the seller

Overview/Conditions
Ford Mustang 289 Coupé 1967 – Original vinyl roof – Rome plates

We are offering at auction a splendid Ford Mustang 289 Coupé from 1967, an American icon in truly exceptional condition, made even more exclusive by its history and originality.

The car retains its original Rome plates from 1967, a very rare detail: at the time very few could afford to import a car directly from the United States. According to the previous owner, a well-known collector, the car would have belonged to the wife of the American ambassador stationed in Rome at that time.

The Mustang has approximately 70,000 original miles and stands out especially for its preserved state:

- Bodywork (likely repainted over the years) and underbody are in excellent condition, rust-free
- Strong and well-preserved steels and chrome
- Interiors completely original, kept in splendid condition
- Original vinyl roof, also in impeccable condition

Mechanically, the car has just undergone a complete and thorough service, which included replacing the carburetor (new). The vehicle drives with great pleasure, is reliable, and shows no issues.

A unique specimen for demanding collectors, combining history, originality, and top-tier condition.

It is possible to arrange shipping at competitive prices to any part of Europe, and by prior agreement with Catawiki the car can be viewed and potentially tested at our Rome premises.

Disclaimer

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
