1965 ford mustang 2d convertible

Few cars capture the essence of classic American cars like the first-generation Ford Mustang. Introduced in 1964, the Mustang redefined the pony car segment and quickly became an icon. This 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible, a factory C Code V8 model, delivers an authentic experience of 1960s motoring with a strong, reliable drivetrain, comfort features and a vibrant personality to match its striking red over red and cream color scheme.

• A Classic V8:

At its heart, this Mustang is powered by the revered 289 Windsor V8, a staple of Ford’s performance heritage. With a smooth and punchy delivery, this factory C Code engine pairs seamlessly with a C4 automatic transmission, making for a relaxed and enjoyable driving experience.

Whether cruising the coastline or taking on weekend drives, the unmistakable V8 dual exhaust soundtrack is a reminder of why the Mustang became such a legend.

• Comfort & Classic Performance:

This Mustang is equipped with Power Steering, enabling easy cruising and making city driving effortless. The addition of Air Conditioning ensures comfort, even on warmer days, making it a practical choice for those who appreciate both nostalgia and convenience. A Power Convertible Roof allows for open-top motoring at the push of a lever, letting you enjoy the sun whenever you desire.

Fly down the highway with roof up and air-conditioning on, then instantly drop the power top in every town you visit. 

• Style in Red & Cream:

Presented in a vibrant bright red exterior with a contrasting red and cream interior, this Mustang exudes classic charm.

The white soft top further complements the color scheme, offering a striking combination that pays homage to the golden era of American convertibles.

Rally wheels with white-wall tires complete the period-correct aesthetic, reinforcing its head-turning appeal.

• A True Driver’s Classic:

This Mustang makes an impression from every angle and the early mustangs drive with ease, it also carries the hallmarks of a driven classic.

Various blemishes, bubbles, and body imperfections become evident upon closer inspection, adding to its character as a genuine driver’s car rather than a showpiece.

The car was driven to the showroom by the Vendor who hasn't the time to use it anymore. He mentioned the Air-conditioning may need ‘re-gassing’ as it doesn’t blow as cold as it previously did ( approx. $300+ for A/C re-gas).

For those who appreciate a car that’s meant to be enjoyed rather than hidden away, this example represents an exciting opportunity.

• Accessible Price:

With a very reasonable reserve price guide of $25,000 to $35,000, this 1965 Mustang Convertible is within reach for enthusiasts looking to experience classic American motoring without breaking the bank.

Whether you’re looking for a weekend cruiser or classic daily, this pony car offers exceptional value.

Get ready to drop the top and hit the open road.
