Description from the seller
GENERAL INFORMATION:
The 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible represents the ultimate era of the American "pony car," a segment Ford pioneered with its introduction in April 1964. Early first-generation Mustangs feature chassis numbers that reveal important factory specifications; the "5F08D" code on this example indicates a 1965 model built at the Dearborn plant as a convertible and originally equipped with the beloved "D-code" 289 cubic-inch V8 with a four-barrel carburetor. This specific Ford Mustang 289 V8 Convertible was imported from the United States to the Netherlands in 2018 and has a Dutch license plate (DZ-62-27). Finished in the classic Wimbledon White with a striking red/white Pony interior, this first-generation Mustang offers a timeless color combination.
BODYWORK AND PAINT:
The bodywork was fully repainted in Wimbledon White in 2018, an authentic period-correct Ford color, although this is not the original factory color in which this particular chassis was delivered. According to the accompanying appraisal, the unrestored body is in very good condition and at the time of appraisal there were no signs of corrosion or substantial accident repair. The chrome trim and fittings are complete and in very good condition. The Mustang rides on steel wheels with stainless wheel covers.
ENGINE AND MECHANICS:
The convertible is equipped with a 289 cu in (4,735 cc) V8 gasoline engine, producing around 200 hp (147 kW), paired with an original 3-speed automatic transmission. The engine runs well and the car drives and shifts smoothly. The car further features power-assisted steering, rear-wheel drive, and drum brakes all around.
INTERIOR:
The interior is finished in a two-tone red/white "Pony" deluxe interior, giving the car a particularly handsome and classic look. The interior is not original for this car, but during the appraisal it was judged to be very neat and well-kept. The Mustang also features a renewed skai (synthetic leather) convertible top. The top and the plastic rear window were reported to be in very good condition.
DOCUMENTATION:
An extensive appraisal report from 2018 is included, in which the Mustang was classified in quality class 2. At the time of this appraisal the indicated mileage was 15,253 miles. The car has a Dutch license plate (DZ-62-27).
COLLECTION AND VIEWING:
The car can be viewed and collected in Gytsjerk, the Netherlands. It is advisable to view prior to submitting a bid. Transport can be arranged in consultation.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
First registration date: 28-02-1965. Chassis number: 5F08D215736.
