Immaculate high quality fresh build with AC, 5 spd, 4wdb, amazing paint, WOW!

This classic Mustang represents the best of the iconic car but has been improved in every area including the powertrain, handling, braking and comfort. The body is laser straight, the paint has a mirror like finish. The attention to detail is evident in every nook and cranny, from the engine compartment to the trunk to the highly detailed under-carriage.

Here is a description and listing of the components:

331-Powered 1965 Ford Mustang Convertible 5-Speed

Finished in Ferrari Rosso Barchetta red paint with metallic black
stripes and powered by a 331ci stroker V8 mated to a Tremec five-speed manual transmission and a
limited-slip rear differential. Modifications include a Borgeson quick-ratio power steering box, four-
wheel disc brakes, a front sway bar, Global West tubular upper and lower A-arms, Bilstein front and
rear shock absorbers, 17″ Vintage Wheel Works wheels, Classic Auto Air air conditioning, Autometer
instrumentation, a Steeda Tri-Ax billet shifter, and TMI vinyl and Alcantara seat coverings as well as a
Holley 650-cfm carburetor, electronic ignition, Patriot headers, Magnaflow stainless steel exhaust
system, aluminum cylinder heads, and an aluminum intake manifold. This Mustang convertible is
offered with an engine dyno sheet and a clean California title in the consignor's name.
The car is refinished in Rosso Barchetta red with metallic black stripes. Features include a Robbins black
fabric convertible top, a steel-framed fiberglass GT350-style hood, a fiberglass front valance, a GT-style
fuel door, chrome bumpers, reverse lamps, and a dual exhaust that exits through the rear valance. The
floors and underbody were painted with red oxide. The convertible top, latching hardware, and cables
are all new.

The 17″ Vintage Wheel Works V-45 wheels are mounted with 225-50 Hankook Venus RS-3 up front and
245-45 Hankook Venus Evo2 tires out back. The car is fitted with a Borgeson quick-ratio power steering
box, Wilwood dual master cylinder, front sway bar, Global West tubular upper and lower A-arms,
Bilstein shock absorbers, 620-lb coil springs with roller-bearing perches, a one-inch A-arm drop, and five-
leaf reverse eye leaf springs. Stopping power is provided by unassisted Wilwood four-piston calipers
over slotted and cross-drilled rotors up front and two-piston calipers over slotted and cross-drilled
rotors out back.

The cabin features front bucket seats and a rear bench reupholstered in TMI-sourced black vinyl with
Alcantara inserts. Equipment includes a 1966-style dashboard pad and glove box, Classic Auto Air
climate control, a Steeda Tri-Ax billet shifter, front lap belts, kick panel speakers, and a retro-style
Bluetooth stereo.

The Shelby-style wood steering wheel is mounted to an adjustable Ididit column and frames an
Autometer 160-mph speedometer and tachometer flanked by gauges for fuel level, coolant
temperature, battery voltage, and oil pressure. The five-digit mechanical odometer shows 440 miles,
which indicate mileage since refurbishment completion.

The 331ci stroker V8 was built by Blueprint Engines and features a Holley 650-cfm carburetor, electronic
ignition, Patriot mid-length headers, aluminum cylinder heads, a Cold Case radiator with an electric fan,
a polished aluminum serpentine drive system, and an aluminum intake manifold. An engine dyno sheet
is included in the gallery of pictures. An oil change was performed in July 2022.

Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a Tremec five-speed manual transmission and an 8.8-inch
rear axle with a limited-slip differential and 3.73:1 gears. The rear axle has been rebuilt during
restoration, and a 2.5-inch stainless steel dual exhaust with a Magnaflow X-pipe and mufflers and an
aluminum three-inch driveshaft are fitted.
