Modified 1966 Ford Mustang Coupe

Description

OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Ford swiftly revolutionized the automotive industry with the introduction of the Mustang at the New York World’s Fair in April 1964, captivating a young generation of enthusiasts and generating the sale of more than 120,000 '65 Mustangs by August. Body styles included a two-door Hardtop, Convertible, and — beginning in September — a Fastback 2+2, all of which were offered with a base 120-horsepower, 170 cu-in straight-six or a slew of optional engines up to a 289 HiPo V8. 

Ford offered so many options (it boasted over 70 of them, not including the 21 colors available) that it introduced only minor changes for the second full year of production in 1966, with the most notable update being the introduction of a new grille design with a floating Mustang emblem. Additionally, the side scoops were redesigned, and the interior was updated with a new five-gauge instrument cluster and optional convenience features. 

This 1966 Mustang Coupe has been fully restored and customized with a Paxton supercharged 409 cu-in V8 engine, performance hood, modern grille and headlights, front spoiler, rebuilt Ford C6 three-speed automatic gearbox, and fresh gray metallic paint over bright blue vinyl custom interior.
