1965 Ford Mustang Auto Unrestored

Australia’s love affair with the Ford Mustang is just beginning.

Despite a small amount of official, yet locally converted models trickling through the 90s, it wouldn’t be until 2015 that the Mustang would begin to fire locally.

It’s since spent more than two and half years consecutively as Australia’s best-selling sports car, powering it to earn the title globally.

With interest at an all-time high, this unrestored, first-generation 1965 Ford Mustang presents a great opportunity. Aside from being a desirable Fastback, the original metalwork hides nothing, still wearing its original Wimbledon White paintwork.

Inside, the vinyl red interior has survived the test of time relatively unscathed, especially considering it’s well-over 50 years old. Most important is a functioning air conditioner however, making this cruiser ready to enjoy the warmer months.

Originally fitted with a 289 V8 and automatic transmission, the matching-numbers engine was stored, then replaced by a 347 stroker for the sake of some muscle and sound.

Unrestored cars from the 1960s are hard to come by, let alone the ones that are icons.

Honest cars are always lower-risk, so consider this an opportunity to both safeguard and enjoy your money.
