This car has the superior handling, power, comfort, and reliability of a new car in a meticulously restored vintage original 1966 Mustang Convertible body. The car has less than 1000 miles on it since completed. Runs and drives like a new car.
Car is as clean underside as is the top. Engine bay was fully cleaned, primed and painted a satin black prior to the crate motor being installed. The body of the car was primed and prepped and block sanded multiple times before the CLASSIC Red acrylic enamel paint was applied. The color is a beautiful TRUE pure red. All exterior trim, lights, handles, weatherstrips, and bumpers have been replaced with new better quality or "concours" parts.
American Racing Torq Thrust wheels are wrapped in low profile performance Kumho 215 40R17 in front and 235 45R17's in the back.
This car runs, drives, sits, looks, and sounds incredible. The paint, fit, finish, and attention to detail are show quality. The paint and finish under the hood, under the trunk, the door jambs, etc are all as nice as the exterior. It is an amazing car to drive and is a show stopper. The car was built with an extremely high attention to detail.
