PENDING SALE
$44,200

Now here’s a truly iconic classic car for someone to catch! This 1964 Ford Mustang Hardtop comes to you from Savannah, Georgia with just 305 miles after a thorough makeover.

Just over 121,000 units were made for this partial year, before skyrocketing to half a million for 1965! So if you want a true American classic hero that’s ready for action and will only appreciate in value as time passes, pick this car without a second thought.

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$79,999

A true icon of American automotive history, Ford’s Mustang is the creator of what we call the pony car. Introduced in 1964, this special car stole hearts and sold well over a couple of million units in its first generation, which ran until 1973. The brainchild of Lee Iacocca and Donald N. Frey, the Mustang’s iconic lines were penned by Gale Helderman. The hardtop and convertible were first previewed to the public in April 1964, the fastback followed a few months later. Today’s 1967 Ford Mustang Fastback is, as the name tells you, a fastback variant which is the one that many lust after. With 60,000 miles on the clock, this North Carolina-based pony is the ideal classic car for someone who is tired of today’s soulless EVs and sanitized plug-in hybrids. It even makes a fine first car for a young person who wants something classic.

1930 Ford Model A 5-Window Coupe

VERIFIED SELLER
PENDING SALE
$19,999

Ford’s Model A may not have been as trailblazing as the legendary Model T was, but it’s no less important in the history of the Blue Oval brand. When the Model T was due for retirement, Ford knew that they had a mammoth task in succeeding it with a worthy successor. The successor was the Model A. So how successful was it? Well, in its production run between 1927 and 1931, 4.85 million examples were sold! That’s pretty successful, we’ve got to say. Model A owners could choose from coupes, convertibles, sedans, pickup trucks and some commercial oriented body styles as well. Plus, the Model A was made in multiple countries across the globe, apart from the United States, of course. Now, finding a Model A these days is a little difficult because not many are around – we’re talking about a car that would be nearly a century old! Thankfully, we have an old stalwart from Meridian, Idaho right here. This 1930 Ford Model A 5-Window Coupe comes with a 201ci four-cylinder, a 3-speed manual transmission and a two-tone blue exterior. Plus, it’s got under 15,000 miles to its name.
