This car was purchased from the original owner in 1976, and has been a member of the family ever since. It has gone to school, driving tests, and now an occasional car show. Still needs some finishing touches.

1966 Ford Mustang coup 289 2V V8

Summary:

Ford had a better idea when they built the MUSTANG

Faults:

This car has been one in a million. Since it was new, the only problem that has cropped up, has been a faulty water pump. After twenty years of dry storage, the only problem has been a new set of points and condenser that had needed to be replaced.

General Comments:

This car has been in my family since new. I learned to drive in it, and twenty-three years later, I have just restored it to it's original condition. All factory parts were used, with one exception. Two stage base coat\ clear coat paint, in the original color was used. The engine, although sporting the factory two barrel carburetor, pulls nicely. No real need for a four barrel in this case.
