Ford’s Mustang created a cult, started a trend, and spearheaded a segment. Thanks to Ford’s dynamic team, which included Lee Iacocca, Donald Frey, and Gale Helderman, the Mustang was meant to be a sporty but accessible car that could perform family duties as well. Hence, the pony car was born. Depending on which school of inspiration you believe, the Mustang is named after the legendary P-51 Mustang aircraft, as well as the American quarter horse of the same name. Nevertheless, owning a first-generation Mustang is a bucket list item for many, and we’ve got a lovingly restored 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback for sale today. The car’s full restoration concluded in 2023, and it has a stroked V8 engine that provides more power.
Exterior and Interior
Showcasing those timeless lines, this 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback comes in a straight shade of black, replete with a set of double racing stripes, otherwise known as over-the-top stripes in white. The current owner reports that the tires, glass parts, and seals are all new as well. The car is an absolute stunner as you start noticing the details, from the front grille-mounted fog lamps to the dainty FORD and MUSTANG badges scattered around its exterior. The interior of this 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback is said to be new, with black leather seat upholstery, a new headliner, and new carpeting. It maintains its period vibe as far as possible, including the wood trim on the dashboard and the thin-rimmed, three-spoke sporty steering wheel with the Mustang emblem on the center cap. The only hint of modernity is the currently installed push-button radio, that is a common upgrade for classic cars because it brings some modern features hidden behind a classic-styled mask. Finally, we must pop the trunk before we pop the hood because the trunk is an oft-overlooked area in restorations. No such issues here, this car’s trunk looks as clean as the rest of the vehicle.
Engine
This 1965 Ford Mustang Fastback has received a new 289ci V8 that’s been stroked to 332ci for a reported output of 350 horsepower. A new 5-speed manual gearbox has been installed to transfer the power to the rear wheels for a real enthusiast-oriented driving experience.
This 1992 Ford Mustang LX 5.0 takes the lightweight Fox-body formula and turns the performance dial well past stock. Showing approximately 80,783 miles, this example is powered by a 347ci stroker V8 with Edelbrock electronic fuel injection and backed by a Tremec 3550 5-speed manual transmission. Twisted Wedge cylinder heads, upgraded valve springs, an Edelbrock EFI intake manifold, heavy-duty water pump, and aftermarket engine-management components all point to a build centered on stronger naturally aspirated performance. Add in SVE wheels, Nitto NT555 tires, upgraded brakes, and an aftermarket exhaust, and this LX becomes the kind of modified Fox-body that speaks directly to Mustang enthusiasts.
The 1965 Ford Mustang Hardtop captures the formula that made the first-generation Mustang such an immediate success: compact proportions, unmistakable styling, and an approachable V8-powered driving experience. Showing approximately 17,855 miles, this example is powered by a 289ci V8 backed by a three-speed automatic transmission and finished in Champagne Beige over a Palomino interior. Black dual racing stripes and lower body accents give the otherwise elegant color combination a more aggressive edge, while Styled Steel wheels, raised-white-letter Cooper Cobra tires, power steering, aftermarket air conditioning, and several underhood upgrades make this Mustang a well-rounded classic with both visual presence and useful drivability enhancements.
The 1967 Ford Mustang has long been one of the most recognizable shapes in American performance history, and this Eleanor-style restomod takes that familiar silhouette in a much more aggressive direction. Showing just 375 miles, this build combines a 302ci V8 with Holley Sniper electronic fuel injection, a Holley HyperSpark ignition system, a Ford C5 automatic transmission with a shift kit, and a long list of comfort and convenience upgrades. The exterior treatment is equally distinctive, pairing Emerald Green and copper with Eleanor-style fiberglass body components, custom graphics, copper-painted aftermarket wheels, and a custom hood accent. Inside, a reupholstered TMI Whiskey two-tone cabin, power accessories, air conditioning, aftermarket vintage gauges, and a tilt steering column give this Mustang a much more modern driving environment without losing its classic character.
This 1926 Ford Model T Roadster Hot Rod is a compact, old-school street rod built around one of hot rodding’s most recognizable early-Ford shapes. Showing approximately 5,979 miles, it combines a lightweight roadster body with V8 power, an automatic transmission, and a distinctly traditional custom presentation. The black exterior is contrasted by purple pinstriping and flame graphics, while extensive chrome and polished engine hardware gives the exposed powerplant plenty of visual impact. With its staggered wheel setup, side-exit exhaust, custom aluminum dashboard, and vivid purple accents, this Model T delivers the stripped-down, mechanical personality enthusiasts expect from a classic hot rod.
This 1929 Ford Model A Tudor Sedan Street Rod takes one of Ford’s most iconic early body styles and turns it into something far more rowdy. Showing just 470 miles, it blends upright Model A proportions with the ingredients enthusiasts expect from a traditional street rod: a 302ci V8, 4-barrel carburetor, automatic transmission, rear-wheel drive, aftermarket suspension, and a custom exhaust system. What really gives this car its personality, though, is the visual treatment. The Lilac Metallic finish, custom devil and flame airbrush artwork, black vinyl roof, chrome trim, and polished wheels make it the kind of hot rod that stands out immediately rather than trying to imitate a factory restoration. The rebuilt title brand should also be noted.
Few cars capture the spirit of American hot rodding quite like a 1933 Ford three-window coupe, and this 1933 Ford Model 40 3-Window Coupe Hot Rod leans fully into that tradition. Showing just 4,563 miles, it pairs the unmistakable proportions of a prewar Ford coupe with a seriously upgraded mechanical package centered around a 383ci stroker V8. Holley Sniper EFI, a 200-4R 4-speed automatic, four-wheel disc brakes, Vintage Air climate control, aftermarket instrumentation, and a fully reworked interior make this much more than a nostalgia piece. Finished in a custom Firehouse Red paint job, it has the stance, sound, and visual drama enthusiasts expect from a proper hot rod, while incorporating the kind of upgrades that make it far easier to enjoy beyond the show field.
