1966 Ford Mustang Vintage Burgundy 289 V8 Automatic 50486 Miles
This 1966 Ford Mustang is a sporty and fun to drive pony car that is sure to garner lots of attention cruising down the road! When the first Mustang debuted in the middle of 1964, it was an instant hit for Ford and launched an entirely new sub-category of muscle car, the Pony Car! Targeted at the youth-oriented market, the first Mustangs were fun, sporty, and fun to look at, all while remaining modestly priced. By 1966, Ford didn't want to mess with what was working for them in the Mustang and in turn FoMoCo didn't change much on the '66 Mustang. In fact, Ford was advertising the 1966 Mustang with the tag line "Relax Mustang lovers. Your favorite car hasn't changed much in 1966." Likely the biggest stylistic revision to the 66 Mustang was that of the grille, shifting away from the '65 honeycomb style to the horizontal bar, floating Mustang look. On the inside, the standard 1966 Mustangs also received the 5 pot instrument cluster treatment which gave the new Mustang more of a race car look and feel. With these minor stylistic changes, the Mustang continued its massive sales success for Ford with over 1.25 million Mustangs on the roads by the end of 1966. This particular '66 Mustang comes to us from a Mustang collector who purchased this vehicle from a long-time previous owner. Powering this C-Code Mustang is a 289 Cubic Inch V8 engine paired with a single 2 barrel carburetor that pushed out 200 horsepower in its day.
