1966 Ford Mustang
289 V-8 Convertible Project
from
MustangBeginnings
Up
for auction is an original 1966 Ford Mustang Convertible.
Good
restorable Mustang Convertibles are very hard to find.
This
Mustang can be restored into an awesome Classic.
If
you have ever wanted a 66 Mustang Convertible project that was affordable, this
is the car. The interior and engine also
look to be in good shape. Original 289 V-8 car, with a stick shift, and 5 lug
suspension both front and rear. We
would recommend rebuilding the original engine that comes with the car, but you
could also consider replacing it with a rebuilt 289, 302, or even a 351 engine,
and either a C-4 automatic or a T-5 manual transmission if you want to be able
to spin the tires easily. Call us if you
need a different engine and/or a transmission.
All of the engine/transmission options are available separately at very
reasonable prices.
PAINT
COLOR:
The
car came as an original Silver Blue convertible, with Blue interior, but once
you do the restoration, it can be repainted to any color of your choice. The
original top was Black, but it will need some restoration to have it
functioning properly again. It comes equipped with its original manual transmission,
so the clutch pedal is already in place if you decide to upgrade to a T-5 or
better.
This
convertible was beautiful - see pictures of how it could look when fully
restored.
It
brought buyers into the showrooms by the thousands and Ford’s strategy
worked-selling more Mustangs than ever before.
When fully restored, this car will easily
sell for $40,000 or more.
BODY:
This
car has a good exterior body shell, no accidents, and most all the panels are
very straightand the quarters are in decent condition. If you have
body repair skills, this is a great project.
The
frame of this Convertible is in fair condition and straight, but it will need
new floor pans, rocker channels, torque boxes, and frame rail extensions.

The front frame rails look to be in good
condition, which makes it a relatively easy car to restore. Dynacorn now makes
a jig welded bottom half for any Mustang convertible which makes restoring
convertibles much easier than it used to be.
The convertible top will need to be replaced, and the vinyl window
should be changed.
If
you have questions about how to restore this car, please contact us at
MustangBeginnings and we will help all we can to make sure you have a
successful restoration.
Overall
this Mustang is a great candidate for restoration.
INTERIOR:
The interior should be brought back to excellence. The interior will need
work, but it is really the easiest part of the restoration. The good news is that you can see what is
needed. You aren’t accepting someone else’s mistakes or bad repairs.
All
the wiring, instrument panel, seats, etc. will come with the car but will need
to be restored.
The
car comes with all of its seats, both front and back. The door panels and dash
pad are included, but you probably want new ones anyway.
ENGINE
BAY:
Engine bay is in great condition with the original 8 cylinder engine and
transmission. The battery tray will need
a little work but not much. A 289, 302,
or 351 engine will drop in easily. We
can supply any combination or engine/transmission desired. Please contact us separately for pricing.
Both engine and transmission will need to be rebuilt, but you would probably
want to do that anyway.
BRAKE SYSTEM:
The mustang has front and rear drum brakes. They are intact and complete. If you would rather have front disk brakes, they
are easy to add
GLASS:
The convertible will come with good door glass and side window glass.
MISC.
The Mustang comes with its original engine,
transmission, seats, and most all of its parts. This car is
very complete. However, a proper restoration involves lots of new parts,
chrome, etc.I have a couple of contacts
for all the other NOS stuff you may need
The
car is definitely a project but we can help where you need our help. We
can sell you any of the items you may need, like new seat covers, new carpet
Etc. Please ask any questions, we know someone will receive a great project and
ultimately a great Classic Mustang.
The
Mustang will come with a Bill of Sale, and Vin Verification from the State of
California DMV. We have checked and the
vehicle is no longer on the California DMV system, so all you will need is the
Bill of Sale and the Vin Verification. We
will supply you with the documents you will need to get the car licensed
in your state.
At
MustangBeginnings we are here to help you make your restoration a success.
