If you are looking for a quality first-generation Mustang then this beautiful example might be your car. This restored 1966 A-code coupe captures all the excitement from almost 60 years ago when the Mustang forever changed the automotive landscape. It epitomizes the classic Mustang look with its timeless lines and one-year-only Emberglo paint, and it also offers a sporty ride with its V8 engine and 4-speed transmission.

Built in January 1966, this Mustang underwent a restoration which included installation of GT equipment. The underside looks great with floors, frame sections, rockers, and torque boxes that are all solid and free of any rust problems. The body was repainted its original Emberglo which is a favorite among enthusiasts. The beautiful color is highlighted nicely by the GT striping and white sidewall tires. Other GT features include foglights and the special rear valence with trumpet exhaust tips. All the chrome and moldings were also replaced or reconditioned as were the lenses, emblems, and trim pieces. The classic styled steel wheels wear BF Goodrich Silvertown tires (6.95-14) from 2022.

This is an A-code Mustang, meaning it came from the factory with a 4-barrel 289 cubic inch engine rated at 225 hp. Aftermarket equipment includes a Holley carburetor with electric choke and finned Cobra valve covers along with an aluminum radiator that has been painted black. It also has headers that feed Flowmaster mufflers which give this car a great sound which can be heard in the video. The 4-speed transmission has been upgraded with a Hurst shifter for better performance than the original Ford setup. The factory 8 rear end has been swapped out in favor of a stronger 9 assembly. Front disc brakes are present along with a dual reservoir master cylinder.

Looking inside reveals a complete black Pony (Deluxe) interior. This is a nice upgrade over the standard version and includes embossed seat backs, molded door panels, carpeted kick panels, bright trimmed pedals, woodgrain dash inserts, and a wooden steering wheel. Other features on this example include a Rally Pac with working tachometer and clock along with a remote mirror on the drivers side. The only change from stock is a modern AM/FM digital radio that fits in the original dash opening. Everything is functional including the speedometer, fuel gauge, lights, turn signals, wipers, washers, horn, and heater/defroster. The trunk is nicely finished with a mat along with a matching spare tire cover and jack bag.

This Mustang presents a very appealing package. It is a gorgeous car inside and out with great GT looks, but is also in turn-key condition with a V8 engine and 4-speed transmission. While this classic can be appreciated by any car collector, be prepared to draw attention from all types of people wherever you go.
