Interior
Looking inside we are met with door panels covered in pristine black vinyl tuck and roll with black textured steel door frames and shiny chrome window cranks and door releases. Black standard buckets are up front and a rear bench that are keenly done with no marks or tears and have recently been replaced. A black center console races between the seats and looks just fab with its black textured and ribbed aluminum inlay. A chrome handled black knobbed shifter can be seen growing from the console and is well within the driver's reach. A dual eyebrowed dash pad sits atop the black full metal jacket dash which contains the original instrument cluster, various chrome knobs and sliders, AM radio, and glove box door. A black rimmed 3 spoke wheel is perched atop the fixed steering column with an optional rally pack tachometer and clock add on and gives a nice touch to the basic instrumentation. Fairly new clean black carpet floods the floors and is protected by black rubber mats with pony logos and an ivory vinyl headliner hangs above with minimal wrinkling.
Drivetrain
Under the hood in the well restored engine bay we see a 260ci V8 with a 2-barrel carburetor. The rebuilt at 121,000 miles engine is painted a nice black with contrasting light blue valve coverings and an air cleaner assembly. A 3-speed manual transmission, with a new clutch, pressure plate, and throwout bearing in 2014 is behind and pushes power back to a Ford 8" rear axle with 3.25 gearing. Of note is the 1964.5 specific generator bolted to the engine where later models had an alternator and a Pertronix II ignition system replaces the points.
Undercarriage
Some surface rust can be seen, but this is typical of a "driver car". Solid floor pans, toe kicks, and rockers can be seen from underneath. We do note that the rear unibody rails have some invasive rust at the tail ends and also repairs have been done to the base of the front shock towers. Independent coil spring front suspension and rear leaf spring suspension are noted, all of which had been replaced at 135,000 miles. Disc brakes have been added to the front while drums remain on the rear and dual exhaust snakes its way back through stock style mufflers . Of note is the recent addition of a complete Borgenson power steering kit
Drivability
A pump of the gas and twist of the key and we were off like a prom dress. Acceleration was adequate from the 260ci V8, handling was good, and braking was bias free thanks to the added front discs. All functions were functioning, and I enjoyed my time behind the wheel of this 1st year pony.
