Hi There

Its better late than never!
Two weeks ago I picked up my new project car.
The chap selling it fancied an open top and I took the liking to his car.

A deal was struck and I delivered the cobra to him and picked up the mustang.

Its a 1965 Mustang Fastback S6 3.2ltr.

From my early investigations it looks to have the original engine and interior. It was imported into the UK Dec 2006 from California bu the chap I purchased it from.

I have plans..
To drive it over the next 4-5 months, then investigate and sort out turning it from the Pony to the Muscle car it should have been!

Enough chit-chat..
PICS. (only a couple from the previous owner) I have not had the time to do my own.. will update at the weekend with my own and more if there is interest)

Looks to be in great condition!

I assume you're well read into the conversion - seen a few people attempt it then realise it's not just mounts and some fuel lines to make it go....

Nice daily smoker, either way

Doesn't look right in red though. Respray to black?

Griffo · 1 Aug 2007 at 22:19

That's a beaut' and no mistake. 3.2 sounds small to me for an american car hehe. Do you know if they did other engine sizes? Is it a V?

I will either keep it in the original Rangoon red, or go with Wimbledon White with Blue stripes (Shelby colours)
